Game Info
This party game from UPL is more challenging than most. Each player is given a booklet with 36 riddles. The players must first solve the riddle and then associate the answer with one of the 36 first names listed on the back of the booklet. For example, No. 33 is "He's learnt in Kindergarten", and the answer is Alf (from Alphabet). No. 34 is "He's heading for baldness, and the answer is Dan (from Dandruff). Some involve period references or slang. No. 26 is "He's an Army volunteer", leading to Terry from Territorial; No. 29 is "She throws him over?", leading Jill from Jilted. The rules suggest giving players 20 to 30 minutes, after which the player with the most correct answers wins.
