TRANSLATION

CHALLENGE

PLAY. DEBATE. LAUGH. REPEAT.

THE BIG IDEA

Most games take turns.
Most games ask you to wait.
On The Spot never does.

The rules are simple.
The tension comes from the people you’re playing with…

AMAZING QUESTIONS

How good is your vocabulary? Do you remember your language lessons? Can you identify sets? Do you thrive under pressure? 🫵 Where will YOU excel?

DECISIONS

Even when it’s not your turn, you’re watching, thinking, judging and deciding how and when to act. This is not a sales-pitch - it’s the core mechanic.

PRESSURE

Think you know your opponent’s answer? Put them On The Spot by playing a Spot Chip and flipping the timer. Will they fold under the pressure, or were they bluffing to steal your Chip?

TRADE & STEAL

Cards can be traded, taken, or given. Trade up your surplus of low level cards to steal a march on your opponents.

CHALLENGES

To win, you’ll need a Challenge card, either by facing and completing a Challenge, or by stealing someone else’s.

HOW THE GAME WORKS

Core fundamentals.

1. Collect Question Cards

You decide the win condition for each game. Collect 1 - 3 Cards from each difficulty level plus a Challenge Card to win.

2. Spot Chips

Every player starts with Spot Chips (decide how many at the start of each game). Putting someone On The Spot means they have 30 seconds to answer correctly, failure gives you the chance to steal.

3. Trading

On your turn you can trade cards from the deck.

3 x Level 1 cards → 1 Level 2
3 x Level 2 cards → 1 Level 3
3 x Level 3 cards → Attempt a Challenge

4. Challenge Cards

Nobody wins without possessing a Challenge Card. A Challenge is a 30 second, player vs clock moment. No Spot Chips.
No interruptions. No excuses.

What Makes It Different?

The mix of question types keeps games fresh without overwhelming new players. It will never feel like the same game twice.

• No waiting your turn
• You’re never not involved
• No multiple choice
• Confidence is risky
• Hesitation has consequences
• Built for real tables
• Better with drinks
• Amazing with friends

Who it's for

Smart, not smug

This is a thinking game, but it doesn’t reward specialists. You won’t need boring trivia knowledge or an encyclopedia of obscure facts.

Easy to learn

The rules take a few minutes to learn and you’ll find a host’s speech in the rules for a super-quick start.

Couples or groups

Home, pub, or party. The game is yours to play your way.

Scales naturally

Play fast or play long. Stack the Chips or keep it lean.
