The game rules — Joyful Reveal
Two teams, 11 questions, a puzzle to piece together and a final piece to scratch. Allow around 20 minutes, for 2 to 10 players.
Have you been invited to a party?
This page is meant for the parents-to-be who are getting the game ready. If you are a player, close it now: you would be spoiling your own surprise!
Before the guests arrive
The parents-to-be choose the 11 questions the players will have to answer. Every correct answer wins a puzzle piece.
The answer is always “mum” or “dad” — and it is all meant with a big wink, of course!
You can use our ready-made list (further down) or invent your own with the blank template.
Form the two teams
Split your guests into two teams — for example:
- Team 1: those who think the baby will be a girl 💗
- Team 2: those who think the baby will be a boy 💙
The game: winning the 11 pieces
The parents-to-be ask the questions one by one. The first team to give the right answer wins a puzzle piece.
Carry on like this for all 11 standard pieces.
Once the 11 pieces have been won, the two teams work together to put the puzzle together… and only one piece is missing!
The last piece: the big reveal
Only the team that has won the most pieces may play this final round — and this time every player plays for themselves.
The parents-to-be then ask the tie-breaker question. The player whose guess comes closest wins the last piece… and the privilege of scratching it!
What your kit contains
One main bag holding 11 puzzle pieces and one unique piece to scratch — the one that reveals everything.
The Premium Pack adds the two team pouches, the questionnaire printed on 400 g card and the keepsake envelope to slip behind a picture frame after the party.
Resist the temptation to warn your guests!
Just picture their reaction when they discover the game and realise they are about to live a one-of-a-kind moment, full of suspense. Seeing their faces light up is really worth it. So hold on, and do not give your secret away!
