Who Would Win (2009)

About this game

In Who Would Win? two players each draw one character card, then turn up an event card. Each player then has 20 seconds to argue why his character would win whatever event is presented. Why would Albert Einstein beat Darth Vader in a gardening contest? Why would Donald Trump prove to be a better figure skater than William Shakespeare? You tell me! The other players serve as the jury and vote on which player had the better argument; that player receives the event card. The first player to win five event cards wins the game.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 3 to 99.
• Rules load. At 1.2/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
