What’s It to Ya?

About this board game

What’s It To Ya? is a party game for 3–8 players that takes about 20 minutes to play. Also known as Oh, Really!, it challenges players to rank everyday ideas according to personal importance while trying to think like the crowd—or like a partner.

Each round, five item cards are placed beside the letters A–E. The items might include “Hope,” “Garbage Collectors,” “Underwear,” “Wisdom,” and “Hearing.” Players secretly arrange their rank cards to show which item matters most to them, followed by their second choice and the remaining items in order.

Players then reveal their rankings one position at a time. For each position, the letter chosen by the most players becomes the crowd favorite. That letter remains face-up, while the other letters are turned face-down again. The process rewards players whose rankings match the group’s shared opinion.

• Secretly rank five items from most important to least important.
• Reveal rankings by position to identify the group’s favorite choices.
• Score for having the most cards revealed at the end of a round.
• Earn two points when all five of your cards are revealed.

At the end of a round, the player or players with the most revealed cards score one point. A player who has all five cards revealed scores two points, and the first player to reach seven points wins.

What’s It To Ya? also supports team play. On each team, one player tries to match the ranking of the other member, with scoring handled in the same way as in the group game. The first team to earn seven points wins.
