About the game
Things they don’t teach you in school is definitely not your traditional trivia game with boring questions about who wrote the Sherlock Holmes stories or where the 1996 Summer Olympics were held. Instead, this is a hilarious trivia game with more than 400 unexpected questions and answers you’ll never see coming! Loads of laughs and interesting discussions guaranteed! —description from the publisher Players start by choosing one person to keep score (this person will also play). They then take turns drawing cards and reading the questions on the cards aloud. The player sitting to the left of the card drawer chooses to either answer or skip the question. Then the player to their left gets a chance to answer the second question on the card and so forth until all four questions on the card have been asked. Each player gets 1 point for every correct answer, and the player with the most points at the end of the game wins. —user summary
