Best. Game. Ever. Or at least the best from Christmas 2018
Got this game and several others for the family for Christmas and it has been played the most, by far. For word lovers, this game is a must have. One of the most interesting things about this game is seeing the different directions individuals go for words that meet the requirements. Sometimes there is a lot of overlap, but most hands have every player going in a slightly different but totally valid direction. Challenging, fun, and worth every penny. Works in a small setting, but could easily be used in a larger setting. Would make a great app, if anyone has the skills. Absolutely love this game, and so does the whole family

‘S Okay
Pretty fun but with all of the “anything goes” rules, it turns the competition into an “everyone-gets-a-trophy” kind of experience. To me, only the “hard” cards seem to make it fun. I also think there should be more points for the harder cards.

Simple to learn, but lots of fun.
I'm a big fan of this game. I've played a ton, and it's been really popular when I've brought it game nights. Game play is simple and intuitive but allows for a ton of creativity. The rules are clear but unrestrictive enough where everyone can be competitive without quibbling over rules. It also has enough ways to score points that there's some game theory to bring into game play. It's now my standard gift to friends that are into party games.

Fun family game
Super fun game. The instructions do such a good job explaining everything. Goo for all ages. Also nice that you can play this with 8 people and It is constantly flowing and there is no dead time.

Family Fun
I bought this game to play with my grandchildren, ages 10.12. and 13 years old. They loved it. Three generations played together and fun was had by all.

ZERO on the fun scale
This game is like Scatergories but much MUCH less fun. They took Scat concept, threw in random and more complicated scoring rules, and the end result is NOT fun. My son and I love board games and words games, so we thought this would be perfect for us to play. It wasn't. I bought this during a flash sale but still considering trashing it instead of donating it because it is just that bad. But, I hate wasting money, so I will donate this and hope the next family that gets this has more fun than we did.
