About this game
Half Truth flips trivia on its head: instead of one right answer, every question shows six possible answers, exactly three true and three false, and you have to bet on which ones you trust. You place up to three chips on the answers you're confident about, but here's the catch, every single bet has to be correct or you score nothing at all. Play it safe with one solid guess, or push your luck for a bigger score and risk walking away empty-handed. Designed by Richard Garfield and Jeopardy champion Ken Jennings, it rewards genuine knowledge but punishes overconfidence hard. Five hundred question cards keep it fresh, and the constant risk calculation makes even questions you know feel tense.
