The Newlywed Game (1967)

About this game

One partner is asked a series of questions, after which their partner is quizzed to see if their answers correspond. Each correct answer gives the couple points, and after several rounds the couple with the most points wins. The usually embarrassing nature of the questions makes this a great couple/party game for adults. Based on the classic game show of the same name, devised by Nicholson-Muir and produced by Chuck Barris.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 4 to 8.
• Rules load. At 1.4/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 18 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
