Anomia Pop Culture

Name a boy band. Quickly. No, faster than that.

Same mechanism as the original Anomia, aimed squarely at things you absorbed without meaning to. Flip cards, spot a matching symbol, and be first to name something in your opponent's category before your brain locks up entirely. The categories here are films, television, music and celebrity, which means the game rewards a completely different kind of knowledge from the standard edition.

It plays perfectly well on its own and shuffles into the original deck if you own it, which makes for a much wider mix of categories. The failure state is the same and just as funny: knowing the answer, absolutely, and being unable to say it.

Perfect for: The friend who claims not to follow celebrity gossip and will win this comfortably.
