About the game

Wits & Wagers Expansion Pack 1 is a set of 700 new questions for Wits & Wagers. Great for those who need some new questions to spice things up! Ken Jennings, winner of $2.5 million on Jeopardy!, helped write the questions for this expansion pack. He picked his 7 favorite questions for a limited edition personality card. This personality card has a fun cartoon of Ken, a short blurb about him, and comes in the box (making a total of 707 new questions). Future print runs will not contain this bonus card. Bruno Faidutti wrote many of the questions for the French edition of Wits & Wagers (Gambit 7), so North Star Games decided to make another personality card with 7 of his favorite questions. This led to the creation of personality cards for Scott Alden, Alan Moon, and Richard Borg. These cards are available at North Star Games convention booths and through special promotions.
