meant to encourage transparency if you feel your partner is holding you back.

must complete the instructions unless otherwise stated. These are meant to be
spontaneous and a lotta bit silly. These cards can appear at any moment during the
game! Certain wildcards have a time limit. Have a phone handy to set the timer.
If you draw a "create your own question" wild card, player holding the card must create
their own question for the partner.
We're Not Really Strangers Multiplayer Instructions - Correct Answers -This game is
optimized for 2 players, however play this game with up to 6 people or an even stranger
experience. To begin, sit in a circle with your group and place the game in the center.
Set a pencil in the middle of the group. If you draw a wildcard spin the pencil once. The
player that the pencil's sharp end lands on must perform the wildcard with you. (Spin the
bottle style).
Set a 'dig deeper' card on each side of the circle for anyone's use throughout the game.
Each player can use the dig deeper card one time per level. Remember these cards are
to encourage transparency!
To begin, write your first impressions in three sentences of less of each player in the
group on a sheet of WNRS paper. Once every player has written their notes for each
other, fold and exchange among the group. Make sure notes remain folded and
anonymous. These are to be read aloud once the game is over. (Quick tip: rip a single
sheet to multiple pieces to write your notes for each player to be eco friendly!)

If you are playing with friends, try to remember what your first impressions were. Ignore
the 'Final Card' when playing in a group setting.

questions.
