Irrational Game (2016)

About this game

A thought provoking, engaging and fun way to incorporate social sciences and human behavior into a challenging and strategic game. Dan Ariely's Irrational Game lets players draw question cards that describe unique and unusual social science experiments - players win if they correctly predict the results. The Irrational Game includes numerous question cards that showcase human behavioral experiments in various categories, but predicting the results of these experiments isn’t enough to win the game. As part of the game mechanics, players can earn Power Cards that enable them to engage and challenge each other.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 1 to 5. It has a designed solo mode.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 15 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
