Fact or Crap

Fact or Crap is a trivia card game that is very similar to the Science or Fiction segment on the Skeptics’ Guide to the Universe podcast. Only on the podcast. you're given three (or four) science news items or facts, one of which is fake, and you are challenged to sniff out the fake; in this card game, while each card does have three statements on it, you're just given one fact (or crap) for each turn. (Unless it's a Rush Hour card! In which case you're required to correctly guess for all three items on the card.)

The biggest difference between Fact or Crap and Sci or Fic is that this card game gives no explanations. In this card game, you may learn that kanshi is not the Korean version of haiku, but you would not learn that kanshi, a term which means "Han poetry," is actually a Japanese term for Chinese poetry written by Japanese poets, the earliest collection of which was compiled in the year 751. Or, you may learn that England's Stonehenge predates the Colosseum in Rome, but you would not learn that their difference in age is several thousand years. And you may learn that caterpillars have more muscles than humans, but you would not learn that caterpillars have approximately 3,400 more muscles than humans.

But! It's much easier to play many rounds of Fact or Crap. And you can google the explanations later!
