What to Expect

In Don't Quote Me, players race their pawns around a pentagon-shaped board by guessing who said various quotes. A player draws a quote card matching the category of the space where the active player stands and reads it aloud. The guessing player moves 3 spaces if they identify the speaker without hints, 2 with a biographical clue, or 1 if choosing from three names. The first to return to their start wins.

Who Is This Game For?

How It Works

Each round, the player to your right draws a quote card and reads it aloud based on your current space's category. You guess the speaker of the quote with varying levels of hints. Your movement on the pentagon board depends on the accuracy of your guess, creating a blend of trivia and racing mechanics.
