GAME RULES
The NewlyBed Game is a party game for couples, throuples and more. The rules are as follows:
The game is played with groups of people, who are all in some sort of relationship. The game can be played with partners who have been together for any length of time.
The game consists of four rounds of questions, each with a different theme. The themes can be anything from personal history to favorite things to do together.
The first three rounds consist of one partner answering questions about the other partner(s), and the partner answering questions about them. The questions are all pre-written and asked by the host.
The fourth round is the bonus round, and all partners are asked the same question. The couple with the most points at the end of the game is declared the winner.
Points are awarded for correct answers, and the partners with the most points at the end of the game is declared the winner.
The questions are meant to be lighthearted and fun, but can also reveal insights into each relationship.
The game is meant to be played in a light and fun atmosphere, and the partners should feel comfortable and at ease answering the questions.
The host should be a neutral party, and not participate in the game as a couple.
The game can be modified to suit the preferences of the players, and can be adapted for same-sex couples or non-married couples.
The game can be played in a group setting, or in a more intimate setting with just the four couples.
GAME SETUP
The setup for The NewlyBed Game involves separating the partners and asking each partner to answer a series of questions about their relationship and their partner. The game is typically played with three to five couples, and a host or game show host who asks the questions.
The questions are designed to test how well each person knows their partner, and can cover topics such as their likes and dislikes, habits, pet peeves, personal history, and more.
To set up the game, you'll need a list of questions, either pre-written or created on the spot by the host. The partners should be separated into two teams, with one person from each "couple" on each team. The host then asks the questions, one at a time, and the partner write down their answers on a piece of paper or a whiteboard. Once all the questions have been asked, the partners switch places and the other partner answers the same set of questions.
Once all the questions have been answered, the host reveals the answers to the "couples", and points are awarded for correct answers. The "couple" with the most points at the end of the game wins.
