Herd Mentality

Herd Mentality is the uproarious party game where blending in is the key to victory. Think like the crowd, match the most popular answers, and collect cows—perfect for family game nights and laugh-filled gatherings.

Don’t stand out—join the herd! Answer prompts to score cows if you match others; be too unique, and you get the dreaded Pink Cow. First to eight cows wins—but only if you stay in sync with the flock.

How the Game Works

A Question Wrangler picks a prompt (e.g. “best sauce?”) and all players write an answer simultaneously. If your answer matches the majority, you earn a cow. If you’re the lone oddball, you get the Pink Cow and your herd shrinks—until you pass it on.

The game is light, fast-paced, and full of social surprises. Each round reveals how well you know your friends—or how wildly you misread the herd.
