Pop the Balloon.... but Gaming! 🎈🎮
About this episode
The episode features a gaming trivia game inspired by the 'Pop the Balloon' format with special guest contestants.
It’s the crossover you didn’t know you needed. Game Clique is taking the viral "Pop the Balloon" dating show format and bringing it straight into the gaming multiverse! This week, we invited a lineup of special guest contestants to test to see if they can recognize whether they're about to commit to a GOTY contender or pick up a Metacritic flop just from vague descriptions of video games. Here are the rules: 🎈 The host reads 5 clues about the game 🎈 Contestants can choose to pop their balloon when they hear a clue they don’t like 🎈 If the contestant still has their balloon at the end of the last clue, they “drafted” that game 🎈 If the drafted game has a Metacritic equal to or higher than 75, the contestant gets 10 points 🎈 If the drafted game has a Metacritic below 75, they lose 10 points 🎈 The contestant with the most points at the end of the game wins Contestants: 🩷 SheIsBoogie: https://www.instagram.com/sheisboogiettv/ ❄️ Ant P.: https://www.instagram.com/whoisantp/ 🔥 Rashad Stark: https://www.instagram.com/rashadstark93/ Would you survive the Game Clique trivia gauntlet, or are we popping your balloon in the first round? Drop a comment below and let us know…
