Think like a cow. Herd Animal is a family party board game with social deduction and a simple black and white mission: write the same answer as everyone else.
It starts with a random question - for example, "What's the biggest fruit you could put in your mouth without crushing it?" All secretly write down an answer. If your answer is in the majority, you get a point. However, if your answer is the exception, you will receive the Pink Cow and your herd becomes worthless - unless you can get rid of it! You can still earn points normally, but you cannot win.
How to play: the questioner reads a card aloud. Each player (including the questioner) secretly writes down an answer. When all are ready, the answers are revealed one by one, starting with the questioner. Counts together to find the most common answer. If you were one of the players who wrote them down, you take a cow tile as a reward - your herd just got a little bigger.
If you were the only player with a different answer, you are the outsider. As a punishment, you must add the pink cow to your herd. The only way to get rid of them is when another player becomes the outsider in a later round. As long as you have the Pink Cow, you can't win the game - no matter how big your herd gets. You can still collect cow tiles, but they are not worth anything until you can pass on the Pink Cow.
The game includes a cowshed to store the cow tiles and the pink cow.
