Planning to break out Monopoly or Scrabble with the family over the holidays? Be careful.

Delaware ranks No. 5 in the nation when it comes to searching for how to cheat at card and board games, according to an analysis from World of Card Games.

Tis the season: This Delaware neighborhood is pumped up for Santa – and displays 130 big Jolly Old Elves

Google search volume data for terms related to cheating in multiple card and board games found that they accounted for 13.88 out of every 10,000 searches from Delawareans. Vermont had the highest search volume, according to the researchers, followed by Alaska and North Dakota.

“Whatever the reason, we hope players remember that the real joy of game night comes from the fun of playing together – not from having an ace up your sleeve,” said World of Card Games Founder Holger Sindbaek. “After all, nothing beats the warm feeling of a well-earned victory shared with loved ones during the holidays.”
