Herd Mentality (HM01)
Herd Mentality is the party game where the goal is to think like everyone else. A question is read out, everyone secretly writes down an answer, and then you all reveal together.
Match the most popular answer and you earn a cow token. Be the only odd one out and you get stuck with the Pink Cow, which stops you winning until someone else takes it off your hands. First to eight cows wins.

Saga Table Talk
Great for: Big mixed groups: family get-togethers, holiday parties, or a table of friends where not everyone plays board games.
What a game night feels like: Lots of "wait, who wrote THAT?" Every reveal turns into a debate about what the obvious answer was, and the Pink Cow gets passed around like a hot potato.

Teaching tip: Skip the long explanation. Read the first question out loud and play it; the rules make sense after one reveal.
