5.0 out of 5 stars Fun and hilarious
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.

3.0 out of 5 stars not as fun as it sounds
bought this game on a black friday whim based on all the good reviews. however, it wasn't as fun as the high reviewers say. we found that some of the word phrases just don't sound like the intended phrase, while others are blatantly obvious. also, several of the word phrases are celebrities that our kids had never heard of. the game allows for a 'coach' to help the...

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun and hilarious, January 11, 2007
This review is from: Mad Gab (Toy)
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.

This game is unbelievable fun for adults...and kids over the age of about 9 will get it too, although the sentences/sayings might not be as familiar to them.
We have had wonderful time playing this everytime, as a family, and with adult friends as well...
get this game and have great fun!

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun for kids and adults, January 10, 2007
This review is from: Mad Gab (Toy)
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.

I played this game for thie first time at a family gathering. There were players from three groups-late teens, twenty somethings, and forty somethings. We laughed and laughed trying to figure out the phrases. With good food, tasty drinks, family and friends, this game was a big hit!

5.0 out of 5 stars You won't want to stop playing!, December 14, 2008
= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Mad Gab (Toy)
Ok people, if you like to spend a fun night with family and friends laughing hysterically, this is the game for you!This game is challenging enough not to be boring, but not so challenging that you get frustrated. It will make you laugh, and it will drive you a little nuts too, but in a good way. Putting strange sounds together to make a well known saying or phrase, is the name of the game here. You'll sound silly reading this stuff, and it sounds funny when you hear it, but that's the whole idea...it's all part of the fun. I definitely recommend getting this game for your family. It's great for any kind of get together... holidays, slumber parties, cammping trips, or game night etc. I DON'T recommend paying this price though! $69.10?!! Are they serious?! That's insane!! You can get this game at a toy store, or department store for between $19.99 and $29.99. So for the love of god, DO NOT pay this ridiculous price!! Ok, so run out and get this game, and let the fun begin. Happy Holidays. Note to the makers of this game--please make refill cards. This game is so much fun, that we'll play it quite a bit, and soon we'll recognize the cards.

Our family loves this game. It creates tons of laughter as players try to figure out the puzzles. Everyone has a great time and it is challenging even for some of the "brains" in the family. Highly recommended. A+++

5.0 out of 5 stars Extremely fun game!!!, December 27, 2009
= Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Mad Gab (Toy)
This Game in very fun. There are 300 cards in the box, each with 4 phrases or names on them. I brought this game to a late christmas party on Dec 26 and everyone had a great time. This game had everyone laughing (even the grumpy people). There were some phrases that I didn't understand or see before, but most of them you could guess. I think that you would need to be 12+ years old to play this game. The box says ADULT GAME, but there is nothing adult about it. This is a great buy for a game loving family and is 100% worth the money.

5.0 out of 5 stars fun party game!!, March 7, 2010
= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Mad Gab (Toy)
If you're looking for a fun party game that can be enjoyed by multiple people and doesn't have you all crowding around a board, this is it. A fun word game that will make you use your mind and think about what you hear in a different way. As far as age recommendations go, I think kids will get it, but it's really best for teenagers and above. It certainly doesn't cut off at 18, like the recommended age here says. I think people of all ages will like it.

This review is from: Mad Gab (Toy)
So I had about 33 people playing this game at once. I hooked up a video camera to a large tv screen so everyone can see the small cards (about the size of a standard playing card, imagine 33 people trying to see one card). Everyone was fully entertained for an hour (I set a time limit on the game). There are plenty of cards in the deck to play with. We didn't even get through half the phrases within that hour between that many people.

There are two sides to each card, side 1 easy, side 2 difficult. Well the easy ones are fairly easy and the difficult ones are fairly difficult, ha. I'm trying to say there is no in between. It is a great participation game. It is extremely difficult to see the answers on the back of the card once they are placed in the card holder, but there are easy ways around that if only one person is in-charge of the game. I would recommend this game to everyone.
