About this board game

Whozit? is a cooperative deduction game for 3–8 players that plays in about 30 minutes.

In each round, one member of the team chooses a target character from six characters drawn at random. They then draw two phrases and rank them from -5 to 5, creating the clues the rest of the team must interpret.

The other players discuss the rankings and decide which one of the six characters does not match the way the two phrases have been ranked. The challenge is not simply to identify a character, but to understand how the target relates to both phrases and spot the mismatch.

  • Choose a target from six randomly drawn characters.
  • Rank two phrases from -5 to 5.
  • Work together to find the character that does not fit.
  • Advance the score marker when the team guesses correctly.

A correct guess advances the score marker one spot, and the round continues. A wrong guess discards all cards, and the next round begins, making every decision matter as the team works toward its best possible result.

The game ends after five rounds. Can your group achieve a perfect score? With its open-ended comparisons and shared decision-making, Whozit? turns familiar characters and unusual phrases into a lively test of cooperative judgment. First released as Profiler, it offers a compact challenge built around discussion, deduction, and interpreting how different ideas connect.
