In 8 Out Of 10 Cats, players or teams take turns answering questions on opinion polls, surveys and statistics. There are five different categories of questions, including "Poll with a Hole", "And the Winner Is ...", and "Pick of the Polls". Players roll a die in order to determine which kind of question they have to answer. Once a player or team has correctly answered ten questions, they have to successfully answer an "8 Out Of 10 Stats" card to win (and end) the game.
