Description

Just Typical is a party game where players controversial statements about men and women. Those who find themselves in agreement with the other players more often will win.

Each turn, the active player draws a card from the deck, which could be a Controversy Card or a Just Typical Card - which is which is marked on the back of the card. In either case, the active player chooses one of three statements on the card and reads it aloud.

Controversy Cards have statements that refer to women, men, or relationships, such as "Women make better diplomats.", or "More alcohol is consumed on a hen night than a stag night." Players then secretly vote, using voting cards, as to whether they Agree or Disagree with the statement.

Just Typical Cards describe behaviours or situations, such as "Shopping for things that are not needed." or "Putting an empty milk carton back in the fridge." Players secretly vote, this time voting for if they thing that trait is "Typically Male" or "Typically Female".

Once everyone has voted, the votes are revealed. The players in the majority score +1 point, those in the minority score -1 point (but never going below 0). In the case of a tie, the active player's choice is considered the majority for scoring purposes.

The first player to reach 14 points wins.
