Herd Mentality
Herd Mentality is a family party game from Big Potato Games, designed by Rich Coombes and Dan Penn, and the trick is to think exactly like the group. Each round someone reads out a question, everyone writes an answer in secret, and matching the most popular answer wins you a cow. Be the only odd one out when everyone else agrees and you're stuck with the angry Pink Cow, which makes your herd worthless until you pass it on. First to eight cows wins.

About the game
For once, Gobgob wants you to follow the crowd.
Gobgob's favourite bit: Questions like naming the heaviest fruit or vegetable. There's no right answer, only the herd's answer. Gobgob said watermelon. The herd said pumpkin. Gobgob is still sulking.
