Facts in Five

Facts in Five is a trivia game. Five cards are drawn. Each card contains a "class" (such as Living Celebrated Persons or Product Tradenames) and a list of "categories" (such as American, Foreign, Male or Female and Soap, Candy, Wine or Beer). A category is selected for each class and the players note the five classes/categories on their scorepads. Then, five letter tiles are drawn and the players note the letters on their pads as well.

A sand timer is then turned over and the players have five minutes to come up with a list of twenty five names or items. For each class/category that was selected, they must come up with an example that starts with each of the letters chosen. After five minutes are up, the scorepads are checked and the player receives one point for each valid answer. Another five classes and letters are chosen and another round begins. After a pre-determined number of rounds the player with the highest total is the winner.
