## Description

We make games that spark joy through laughter, learning, and light-hearted competition.
We’re Kimelia and Nick, the husband and wife duo behind Brilliant or BS? We founded our company because we love bringing people together to create memories through the types of games we’ve always enjoyed playing with our friends and family: easy-to-learn, unpredictable, and guaranteed to bring the laughs.
We hope you have as much fun playing them as we do making them!
Find out with the bluffing trivia party game that tests your knowledge and your ability to tell when your friends are trying to fool you!
The rules are simple. Read a trivia question then hold court as everyone else answers secretly and tries to convince you that they know the correct answer without saying it. To win, be the best at guessing who’s brilliant and who’s just faking it!
Each round a rotating Judge reads a multiple choice trivia question from one of the 6 trivia categories. The remaining players answer secretly using their ABC response cards.
Without saying the answers, the remaining players take turns trying to convince the Judge that they answered correctly by explaining why they are knowledgeable about the topic. If they don't know the answer, they'll need to fake it! The other players can trash talk to cast doubt on each other.
The Judge interrogates the other players to try to figure out who actually knows the answer and who's only pretending to know. The Brilliant Card goes to one player the Judge believes chose the correct answer while the BS Card goes to one player they believe chose the wrong answer.
The player who receives the Brilliant Card earns points for convincing the Judge even if they answered incorrectly. All players earn points for correct answers. After everyone reveals their answers, the Judge earns points for correct predictions and loses points for incorrect predictions.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What does "nsfw" stand for?**
A: NSFW stands for "Not Safe For Work." This expansion pack includes questions with some adult content and isn't suitable for children under 18.

**Q: I don't understand how the judge is literally holding the answer with the card and not supposed to look, are you supposed to cover the bottom half?**
A: The Judge is absolutely encouraged to look at the answer at the bottom of each card while playing. The Judge is the only person who can see both the trivia question and answers the entire round. The Judge won’t know if any of the other players actually know the correct answer until the end of the round when answers are revealed. This means Judge must predict who answered correctly based only on each player’s explanation as to how or why they know an answer. Players are forbidden from saying any of the multiple choice answers in their explanations, but the Judge is encouraged to ask follow up questions if any explanations sound fishy. Player answers are revealed AFTER the Judge makes a “Brilliant” and “BS” prediction.

**Q: Can this be played with 7 people? If 1 person is the judge, can't there be 6 others players besides the judge?**
A: Yes it can be played with 7 people. The game comes with 6 sets of ABC response cards. So you can make another set with pen and paper or download and print a set from brilliantorbs.com

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Fun!
*by  on Reviewed in the United States October 31, 2025*

A very fun and competitive game! My friends and I are very passionate when it comes to winning, and this game is perfect. You essentially argue against each other to convince the judge that your answer to the question judge gave is correct. Whoever convinces the judge receives points.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fun and funny game; especially after a few beverages
*by  on Reviewed in the United States March 1, 2025*

It's hilarious watching people come up with some far-fetched reason behind why they know this particular fact. And then, to find out that they were right!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simple fun game for travel
*by  on Reviewed in the United States January 23, 2026*

I'm not always a fan of these smaller get to know you games, but this one was a pleasant surprise. It takes social deduction and trivia games and combines them into a game that makes you good at the game as long as you are good at one of these two. For it's price point, a fun pick up for a vacation with family or to travel with to a friends house to enjoy a simple and easy to understand game.
