Roll the die and chose a category—then read the choice out loud for the group. Each player writes what they think the real definition or explanation is, and the Balderdasher writes down the real answer. Then the "Dasher" reads them all aloud, and you hope that yours is the most believable!

The chart indicating Balderdash requires 2 to 6 players,  recommended player size for the best game time is 5 to 6, plays in 60 minutes, features a Bluffing, Party game, and word game themes, and offers Paper-and-Pencil and voting Mechanics
