Pop culture, sport, animals… Place a bet on your answers or take it in turns to come up with ideas until you run out! Rack your brains and boost your general knowledge!
How many world capitals can you name in 60 seconds? Chocolate brands? Football clubs? Superheroes? Dog breeds? Animated films?
Name your number… then prove it!
Banco is the party game that turns your general knowledge into a bidding war. A fun quiz to play with friends or family, on a single phone, with 2 to 4 teams. Sport, films, music, geography, TV series, video games, brands, history, nature: there’s bound to be a topic where you’re unbeatable… and another where you’ll make a complete fool of yourself.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
- Form your teams and choose your themes.
- Find out the topic for the round.
- Bet on the number of answers you can come up with… or rattle off the answers in Survival mode.
- Pass the phone round, tally the points, and do it all again!
AUCTION MODE: PLACE YOUR BET, THEN DELIVER
A topic is revealed. Each team bids on the number of answers they think they can come up with. “
We’ll get 8!” “10!” “13!” The team that bids the highest must deliver within 60 seconds
flat.
• Successful bet: you bag the points.
• Failed bet: the points go to the opposition.
Bluffing is tempting. Getting it wrong is hilarious (for everyone else).
SURVIVAL MODE: THE FIRST TO MISS IS OUT
The teams take turns, one after the other, answering questions on the same topic. Every correct answer adds to the prize pot. One moment’s hesitation too many, a lapse in memory… and you’re out. The last team standing takes it all.
