Canoe Key Pace He Grit? Mad Gab is one of the most entertaining and fun talk-out-loud games you’ll even play. Teams square off against their opponents in trying to be the first to 25 points, which are earned by solving word puzzles. The puzzles are mondegreens of small words that, when said together, sound like a phrase, famous person, place, or thing. For example, "Canoe Key Pace He Grit" when pronounced quickly sounds like "Can you keep a secret?"
Talking to yourself might have people looking at you funny any other time, but it’s almost a prerequisite for Mad Gab. Simply reading "Sea Grit Dress Up Ease" may not be enough to solve the puzzle. But once you start sounding it out slow, fast, slurred, or with quick repetitions, you start to hear "secret recipes" and have the answer. But players should be careful, because if they don’t guess correctly before time runs out, then the opposing team has a chance to steal for the point.

| 300 cards, a timer, and a score pad are included. "Eiffel Tower" and "A Model Citizen" are the shown puzzles. |

The game includes 300 cards featuring 1,200 puzzles with two levels of difficulty. An easy example is "Sand Tack Laws" being Santa Claus, while a hard clue might be "Thigh Sing Gone Thick Ache" (the icing on the cake). A timer, a flipper, labels, a score pad, and instructions are also included.
Product Description
The Mad Gab motto is: it's not what you say, it's what you hear! Your clue is Law Sand Jealous. Go ahead, sound it out. Yep, it's Los Angeles. It's a funny, fast-paced way to tease your brain and keep the twists out of your tongue!

I wanted something for the adults to play at Christmas that would definitely make people laugh. This definitely hit the spot. We played with eight people, of which four of them had already had their share of drinks, and that just made it all the more fun. Listening to someone try to figure out the phrases can be hilarious. For anyone who actually knows how to have a good time and wants to have fun, this game will do it. I played later with my twelve year old, and it was just as fun with her. She can't wait to play it with her friends, and my eighteen year old daughter can't wait to take it and play with her friends. It's a good laugh for a lot of different ages.

Our family likes to play this game together. Kids should be at least 13 or some phrases may not make sense. It's fun to play with a few couples.
