Guide Review - Dibs
Each trivia question in Dibs has five or more answers, and players use their "dibs cards" to bid for the right to answer. A low bid means you get to answer first -- but it also means you earn fewer points for your answer.
Some cards have special powers, such as a Mulligan, which gives you the ability to provide a second answer if your first is incorrect. The questions range from pop culture to words to history to food to science.
Dibs is a worthwhile addition to any trivia lover's game collection.
