A round of The Initials Game Live runs about 20-25 minutes, with prizes awarded at the end of each round. A full game consists of three rounds. With breaks between rounds, a standard game is roughly 90 minutes.
-
The winner of each round receives a gift card to the host venue valued at $15-20. Additional beer tokens or other consolation prizes are awarded at random by our hosts (for things like "funniest wrong answer" or "best team name" or "you look pretty sad because you haven't won anything yet").

That's not a question. But whatever: Here's a sample round!
Let's say we're playing the initials "TM" Your host reveals the following clues, one after the other, with some time in between:
1. It may go back and forth.
2. Apple operating system backup mechanism.
3. Popularized by H.G. Wells.
4. Seen in "Napoleon Dynamite."
5. It might be a hot tub.
6. It might be a DeLorean....
If you guessed "time machine": You're right! And the sooner you guessed it, the more points you would have received. Look out, though: You only have one guess per item! Do you play it safe, or risk it all?
-
It might sound tricky at first, but you'll soon realize that the clues get easier as they're revealed.
-
Always!
-
You can play solo or with a team — either is allowed! Some folks like competing with their friends at the same table, and some folks like to put their heads together.
-
The maximum number of players is the same as in a Trivia Mafia game: 8 players. That said, we always leave it up to our hosts' discretion!
