I bought this game thinking it would be interesting to see which of those wonderful "urban myths" were true and which were pure make believe. For curiosity's sake, I went poking around on the net for more information on some of the questions. I found multiple cards that were supposed truths that I know are false. an example: A japanese woman died in North Dakota while searching for the drug money buried by a fictional character in the hit movie Fargo. marked as true, I found it false, she died in Minnesota. I've found multiple cards that are labeled as myths which are true. One card states: The letters in FUBU sportswear mean "For Us By Us". It's listed as a myth. I checked it out, even [...] lists the meaning as that. I've also encountered several cards that I cannot find ANYTHING on. Such as: Lawman Wyatt Earp was barred from California for stealing horses. card states it's true, but the only horse theft i found on his record said nothing about being banned (says he ran from the law) and it was NOT in California. Whoever did the "myths" and "truths" on this game didn't check their facts very well.

This review is from: Imagination Urban Myth Board Game (Toy)

Please do not buy this game. It is by far the least enjoyable game I have ever played in my entire life. The cards are not preshuffled. The information on the cards is not correct. The game lost its excitement factor after about 8 seconds. The layout of the board is ill-conceived, and the game never develops any sort of flow. It would be more enjoyable to take the money you would have used to buy this game, set it on fire, and watch it burn. (I am not even kidding.)
