At the table

You read, “Which 1966 spy series opened each week with a taped message that destroyed itself?” Three answers go up on the screen and the tables choose. After the fun fact comes the question for everyone: “What secret mission would you give each person at this party?”

Which astronaut made the first docking of two spacecraft in orbit, in March 1966?

Why it works

Not everyone can be in the room. The slide deck carries the whole game, so relatives on a video call see each question and play along. Three choices mean guests who were not born yet can still guess, and the opening line tells them what to do: “team up with someone who was there”. Every fact was checked against at least two published sources.

Made for: Friends, family and coworkers planning a 60th birthday. US edition.
