Fibbage
Play Fibbage — the bluffing trivia game where you write fake answers to fool friends. Guess the truth among the lies to score points.
About This Game
Fibbage flips the trivia formula on its head. Instead of simply answering questions, players write convincing fake answers to obscure trivia questions, trying to fool everyone else. Then all the fakes are mixed with the real answer, and players must figure out which one is true. You score points both for guessing the truth and for tricking others into picking your lie.
The game mines an incredible well of bizarre but true facts. Questions like "In 2007, a Swedish man was arrested for building a nuclear _____ in his kitchen" or "The official sport of Maryland is _____" lead to creative lying and genuine surprise when the truth is revealed. The "I knew it!" and "No way!" reactions are the heartbeat of Fibbage.
Fibbage has evolved across multiple versions, with Fibbage 3 (in Party Pack 4) introducing Fibbage: Enough About You, where the questions are about the players themselves. This variant is phenomenal for friend groups and team building because it combines the bluffing mechanic with personal trivia, creating a game that is both competitive and deeply social.
