FAQs
How many players can play Herd Mentality?
The game is designed for 4 to 6 players.
What is the objective of the game?
The objective is to write down an answer that matches what the majority of other players write, in order to collect cow tokens.
What happens if my answer is very different from everyone else's?
If your answer is not part of the majority, you receive the 'pink cow', which signifies you did not blend in with the herd.
Is this game suitable for children?
The game is generally suitable for older children and adults, as it requires understanding abstract concepts like group consensus. Recommended age is typically 10+.
How long does a game typically last?
A typical game session can last between 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the number of players and how quickly rounds are completed.
Can I use my own questions?
The game comes with a set of question cards. While you can invent your own questions, ensure they are clear and open to varied interpretations to encourage diverse answers.
Troubleshooting
Pens not writing
Ensure the pen caps are removed. If pens are dry, they may need replacement, or players can use their own pens.
Difficulty understanding a question
The question reader should read the question aloud clearly. If ambiguity persists, the group can briefly discuss its interpretation before answering.
Running out of answer sheets
Players can use blank paper or the inside of the tin lid to write their answers if official sheets are depleted.
Confusion over majority answer
Count all written answers carefully. If there is a tie for the majority, re-evaluate the answers to ensure accuracy.
