Fact or Fake: how to play
⚖️ Fact or Fake: 1 to 8 players.
How it works
A statement appears on the TV and your phone: is it true, or a fake? Tap True or Fake before the clock runs out. Half the statements in each game are real and half are myths or plain wrong, and after every round the TV explains why. A right answer is worth 500 to 1,000 points, and the faster you tap the more you get.
Tips for winning
- Be suspicious of facts that sound too neat. Many popular “facts” are myths.
- Some true facts sound unbelievable. If it sounds odd but specific, it might be real.
- After each round the TV explains the answer, so you learn something new.
Who it suits
Good for curious people and for settling arguments.
