This is a game where being different wins points
Over 3,500 possible category combinations
20-sided letter die to shake up your game

I did not receive my complete order. The book that was supposed to come with my iron pills did not. I am unable to get a refund for the missing book and I have NOT heard from the company regarding making my order correct. I just a refund for the book since it was not sent. I think it is wrong to charge me for something you did not deliver.

First time playing this game. I bought it as a request from my bestfriend for a Christmas party we held.

When I say we were laughing in tears from playing haha we were having such a great time!

Easy to understand. Easy to follow.

*My biggest recommendation is that the game requires you to write on paper. The game does not include writing utensils so make sure you have some pens/pencils.

**Also, the game comes with 4 boards to use as a clipboard to help you write on a solid area. If you have more than 4 people playing, play at a table or grab a few clipboards. We used magazines lol It was a total of 7 people, including myself.

I hope this review helps!

Very Fun Game

Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2023

Verified Purchase

This has been one of my favorite games for years. It's great for kids over 10 or a group of smaller kids together. I wouldn't pair kids under 10 against adults (It's not fair). I have quite a few versions of this game over the years as you run out of the sheets, the box gets worn, etc. This one is kind of strange, hence the 4 star rating. The Privacy screens (to keep your answers covered) are supposed to fold up. We broke every one when we tried to fold them. I tried different methods after the first one broke and no luck so they are useless except as a hard surface to right on if you're not at a table.

Clean fun for the whole family from adults to children all playing together.

Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2016

Verified Purchase

This is the best game to play with adults and young children all together. This past Christmas we went as an extended family to the mountains in Red River to ski. My brother and his three pre-teen and teen kiddos, me and my 17 year old, and my parents all stayed in a cabin that was furnished. In the den there were several games, many of which we had never played before. The kids pulled this one out and it was the hit of the vacation. We lit a fire, made hot chocolate and played games and no one even missed the television! It is played where one player rolls a dice and whatever letter comes up, each team has to answer the questions on their card with a name or word that begins with that letter. It is better to do something no one else would think about because if more than one team uses the same name or word, they cancel each other out. You get points for the number of questions you answer before the timer goes off. The kids looked forward to playing this game every night and switching up teams. There was no fighting because there were adults on teams mixed with the kids and the subjects were so random that some nights one team would win then the kids would want to switch teams the next night and because of the change in subjects another team might win. It was just an all out fun time playing together without all the digital/social media interruptions.

Word competition at its best

Reviewed in Canada on January 26, 2019

Verified Purchase

I'm not that competitive in real life, but this game simply gets the best of me: I love it. Even though I'd like it to be bilingual (french + english), it doesn't make me want to say that it's not worth the try. It's simple and gets the party started. The fact that you can play it in teams also gives it a good replayability potential.

Best for kids to use their brains!!!!

Reviewed in India on January 2, 2020

Verified Purchase

This is absolutely the best word game in the market. It is basically name,place, animal, thing, but on steroids. There are things to write about like for eg. "Measurements" with the letter you rolled on the die. And there's a time bomb too for the intensity. Best family time spent also great for teenagers to sometime use their heads other than mobile.

Smaller than I thought but still complete, fun game

Reviewed in Mexico on August 15, 2017

Verified Purchase

Got this in Mexico one week after ordering it (came from amazon US). It seems to be a smaller version of the game I remember playing. The dice is 20 sided and small, just like in the picture. The category cards seem smaller also, there are 4 sets of them (16 lists of 12) to go with each of the 4 cardboard holders. I am looking forward to playing this game with my kids. Very happy to be able to order an English board game so easily from amazon.mx. The box was a little beat up but that doesn't really matter. I also like that it is a little smaller, even though that was not what I was expecting. It will be easy to bring with us as we travel. It is a really fun family or group game.
