• Some questions might have a point of view that leaves them

open to a wide range of speculation as to exactly what they

mean. That’s also par for the course. One player might

interpret the question one way while another might see it in

a whole different light. Just give your best answer and cross

your fi ngers. Remember, this game isn’t about right or wrong

answers; it’s about sharing embarrassing secrets in front of

sweethearts, friends, and strangers.

The number of questions asked in a game varies. Some games

ask more than others. Further, if there is a tie at the end of

regulation play, the game will be extended. In some games,

players will be eliminated as the game goes on.

Controlling the Handset

Answers are entered using the handset.

Depending on the game being played,

different rules govern the use of the

handset.
• If you’re playing The Perfect

Couple, Find A Mate, or

Opposites Attract, have player 1

take the handset for question 1.

After he enters his own answer,

the other players tell him their

answers and he enters them into

the game. When question 2

appears, he passes the handset

to player 2. This process repeats

each turn with handset being

passed from player to player after

each question (not each

answer).

• If you’re playing Dream

Date, give the handset to

the player selected as the

Dream Date. He will enter

his own answer and then ask the other players for theirs until

an answer has been entered for everyone. The Dream Date

keeps the handset for the entire game.

• If you’re playing Know Your Mate, the handset will be passed

between the odd numbered players each turn. These players

will enter the answers for the couple they’re a part of. Thus,

when the fi rst question appears, player 1 enters his answer,

and then asks his partner (player 2) for an answer. After

entering his partner’s answer, he passes the handset to player

3. Player 3 repeats this process for himself and his partner

then passes the handset to player 5, and so on.

Results Screen

After The Perfect Mate,

has accumulated all the

information it needs to

determine the winning

couple, the Results Screen

will appear. Depending on

the game you were playing,

the information presented

here will vary a little bit.

If you where playing The

Perfect Couple or Opposites

Attract, for example, the game will show the two players it thinks

are most (or least) compatible. If you’re playing Dream Date, you

already know who one of the winning couple will be, so the only

surprise is who has been paired up with him or her.

Automatic Power-Off

Your game is equipped with an automatic screen saver and

power-off feature. If you leave it alone, a screen saver will appear

to protect your TV screen. After a few more minutes, the game

will automatically turn itself off to conserve battery power.
