Cheat (game)

Cheat (game)

Cheat (also known as Bullshit and I Doubt It) is a card game where the players aim to get rid of all of their cards. Normally played with 3 or more players it is often classed as a party game. It is a game of deception and lying. A challenge is made by players calling-out (normally the name of the game), but whoever is wrong has to pick up all the cards in the middle.

As with many card games, cheat has an oral tradition and so people are taught the game under different names, called I doubt it by Hoyle and sometimes known as Bullshit in the USA, with other names including: Bluff, Bluffaroo, BS, Bologna, Bible Study, Challenge, No Way, Liar, Bus Stop, I don't think so, Bull, Boy Scout, Cooner, Sheep, and Shredder often used in situations where yelling 'bullshit!' may not be desirable.
