The instructions are in the lid. It mentions cards with over 550 questions. 6 questions per card (3 on each side) I counted 103 cards which would equal 618 questions. It has all 6 Stylii (pointed sticks) for writing answers on the slates provided. There are 4 slates included, there should be 6 but it's easy to write the answers on a piece of paper if more then 4 play. It includes the scoreboard and 2 pegs as well as a good supply of plastic chips.
