How to play

How to play how well do you know them: a short video
  1. 1Have the guest of honor answer every question ahead of time, in secret.
  2. 2Show one question at a time on the big screen, or read it aloud.
  3. 3Guests pick or write their answer.
  4. 4Reveal the real answer. Every correct guess scores a point.
  5. 5The guest who knows them best wins.

Running it for your group

A small group
Under a dozen guests: read each question aloud and let guests call out answers, or pass round the printed sheet and mark it together at the end.
A big room
Thirty guests or more: don't read answers aloud one by one. Put the questions on a screen and let guests answer on their phones, or have neighbors swap sheets and mark each other's.
Guests on a video call
On a video call: share the big screen and let everyone answer from their own phone, so the reveal happens for the room and the call at the same moment.

Questions people ask

Can the bride play this one?
Yes. It's a popular twist at showers: the groom answers ahead of time and the bride guesses alongside the guests.
Can we play this live instead of on paper?
Yes. Put the questions on a TV or laptop, guests join from their phones with a QR code, and the answers are revealed on the big screen with scores kept for you. It's free for up to 15 guests.
