Herd Mentality is a fast-paced, family-friendly party game from Big Potato where you have to think like the rest of the herd.

A round starts with a question being drawn – for example, "What's the best pizza topping?" – and everyone secretly writes down their answer. Those who answer the same as the majority win a "cow" in the form of a score token, but the one who is alone with their answer receives the shameful Pink Cow, and loses the right to win until someone else gets it. The game continues until someone has collected eight cows.

The combination of social interaction, laughter, and simplicity means the game works equally well for families, large groups of friends, and intergenerational social events.
