Chrissy and co were out for drinks when they were struck with a brilliant game idea.
What started as a fun idea just for them, turned into a tequila infused, “This is the greatest idea in the entire universe that must be shared with everyone!!” The next day, htese four high school/college friends who realized when life took them in separate directions, all they wanted was an excuse to get back together and what better excuse than to play FRIEND or FAUX.
They brought it to Kickstarter, garnered some buzz, were noticed by Goliath’s Games Adults Play brand and the rest is history.
Meet the women behind Friend or Faux: a group of college friends who were looking for a way to reconnect and wound up creating the bestselling party game, Friend or Faux.
