Products / Hive Mind
Hive Mind is a party game that rewards thinking alike, and there are no wrong answers! Each round poses a question to every player. Players write their answers, and every answer that matches another player's scores points. Each round a die is rolled, and the players with the fewest matches move down the board, closer to being kicked out. When one player's pawn reaches the end and is forced to leave, everyone else wins. To stay in, focus on being alike to your fellow players.
The real strategy in Hive Mind isn't finding the "right" answer, it's guessing how the rest of the room thinks. Matching a witty friend usually means answering broadly and safely, while a table of literal thinkers rewards a specific, exact response. That's what makes it hold up over repeat plays, the same question plays out completely differently depending on who's at the table. Every round starts with a die roll to decide who moves, read our take on the many ways people roll dice at the table on the blog.
