It’s anything vs. everything in the silliest tournament ever!

Every round of this rambunctiously hilarious party game crowns a new champion. Champion of what, you ask? Good question. You won’t know until you turn over the final card! Here’s how it works: 

  • Players choose eight items to compete in the first round of a bracket tournament, with a judge whose decisions are final. For instance, the judge might have to choose whether “The one thing I’d take to a desert island” is “beer” or “Godzilla.” 
  • Players earn points by predicting the winners, so there’s sure to be plenty of discussion about what should prevail.
  • The winners move on to the next round … but the twist is, the next category is a secret until the round begins. Perhaps it will be “What my mom would pick” or “Most intriguing ice cream flavor.” 
By the end, there’s only one card standing, and there’s only one thing left to debate—whether there’s enough time to play again!
