Rules for Barrel of Truth (Version 1)- Colin Kenny

Each player is given a Sharpie or any type of pen, but all of them must be identical. Each round, the host (me) hands each player a slip of paper and asks them to respond to a question or prompt pertaining to the other players. It can be in the form of an assumption, and opinion, a secret, etc. No direction is given whether the responses SHOULD be positive or negative. Some rounds will require players to write their own names on their slips along with their answers, other round they must be completely anonymous. After every player has answered, they will put their slip in the barrel, the barrel is closed and mixed, and each answer is read aloud by the host. The players are suggested to share thoughts and feelings of the responses. Once everyone is ready, the next round begins. The game ends whenever the players either hate each other or get bored.

  1. This game has potential. I think if there was a more concise way of asking more advanced questions, as well as a more concise end goal, this game could be really sick. I enjoyed playing this in class, it felt like a fun party game.

  2. This game was fun, I would like to see some sort of prompt list because right now no one can play the game without you being there to host.
