Overview

Fun Facts is a cooperative party game that tests how well players know each other. Each turn, players secretly answer a personal question with a number, then try to place their answers in ascending order by predicting how everyone else answered. After 8 questions, players compare their cumulative score to a rating table. The goal is to maximize the number of correctly placed answers across all rounds.

Components

• 195 cards (each with a personal question)
• 8 Arrows (double-sided: name side and answer side)
• 8 erasable markers
• 1 Star (first player marker)
• 1 Record of Legends (score tracker)
• 1 rulebook

Setup

1. Shuffle the cards and place 8 in a face-down pile on the table. Return remaining cards to the box.
2. Give each player an Arrow and matching color marker.
3. Each player writes their name on the Arrow (pointing up). The blank side is the Answer side.
4. Choose a player to take the Star — they are the first player.

Turn Structure

The game plays over 8 turns, each with three phases:

1. Answer

• The first player draws a card and reads the question aloud.
• All players simultaneously and secretly write their own answer (a number, sometimes with a unit) on the Answer side of their Arrow.
• Some cards require an answer between 0 (least) and 100 (most), as indicated on the card.
• Players cannot share any information about their answers.
• If a card is not applicable to the group, set it aside and draw a new one from the box.

2. Place

• The first player places their Arrow in the middle of the table, Answer side down.
• Starting with the player to their left and going clockwise, each player places their Arrow relative to others, Answer side down.
• Place your Arrow: above (highest answer), below (lowest answer), or between two Arrows.
• Players cannot share any information about their answers during this phase.
• After all players have placed, the first player may move their own Arrow (and only theirs) if desired.

3. Reveal

• Flip all Arrows one by one, starting with the lowest position, to reveal answers.
• Remove any Arrows that are incorrectly placed to create an increasing line from lowest to highest. Ties are always considered correctly placed.
• If multiple removal options exist, choose which Arrows to remove (keep as many correct as possible).
• Gain 1 point per correctly placed Arrow.
• The first player writes the cumulative score on the Star.
• The Star passes to the player on the left, who becomes the new first player.

Actions

There are no individual actions beyond answering and placing. All gameplay is simultaneous and cooperative.

Scoring / Victory Conditions

After 8 rounds, add the final score to the Record of Legends. Compare against the rating table:

Player Count	4	5	6	7	8
Gotta start somewhere	8-12	8-13	8-15	8-17	8-19
Totally average	13-19	14-23	16-27	18-31	20-35
Hitting your stride	20-26	24-33	28-39	32-45	36-51
Excellent! Clearly close!	27-31	34-39	40-47	46-55	52-63
Perfect! No more secrets!	32	40	48	56	64

Special Rules & Edge Cases

• Ties in answer values are always considered correctly placed — tied Arrows never need to be removed.
• When multiple Arrows could be removed to fix the order, players choose which ones to remove (the goal is to keep as many correctly placed as possible).
• The first player has the option to reposition their own Arrow after all other players have placed, since they placed first without seeing others’ positions.
• If a question card is not applicable to the group, replace it with a new card from the box (not the 8-card pile).
