Betcha Can't! is a new board game that came out of the national Young Inventor Challenge hosted by the Chicago Toy and Game Group. The game was created by friends 13-year old Lily Brown and 12-year-old Tait Hansen, who remotely collaborated to create the game. The family-friendly board game is centered around one-upping friends by placing bets on the number of things they think they know.
The fast-paced game challenges players to see if they can name the most ice cream flavors or come up with different ways to listen to music and they will have to prove themselves to win the card. The game for three or more players ultimately challenges players to collect five cards to get the title of Better Bettor.
