How to play Higher/Lower

  1. Step 1: A starting player and stat is shown — for example, Erling Haaland's 2024-25 goal tally.

  2. Step 2: A second player appears with their number hidden. Guess Higher or Lower — the two stats don't always match, so read both labels.

  3. Step 3: Right or wrong, the hidden number is revealed and you move on to the next round.

  4. Step 4: You play all 10 rounds. A wrong call costs the point, not the game — your score is correct calls out of 10.

  5. Step 5: Stats include transfer fees, goals, league appearances and international caps.

Why players love it

  • Ten quick calls, each scored on its own — one bad call never ends your game.
  • Forces you to remember relative stats, not absolute ones, which separates real fans from the rest.
  • The stat can change from round to round, so no single kind of knowledge carries you.
