Before the first game, and after five minutes without a start, join or vote, an attract screen cycles through the square artwork and its Fact or Fiction claim every ten seconds until somebody starts locally or joins from a phone. The game contains 50 facts and 50 fictions, shuffled into ten balanced rounds with five of each in every round. Statements and artwork fade between questions. An answer reveals as soon as every connected player has voted, or when its 25-second timer expires. A leaderboard appears after each ten-question round, then all player scores reset before the next round. The complete game restarts after round ten.
