Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Just deal 10 cards each and have some zany laugh-out-loud Fun making sentences. With the deck of 540 pentago-shaped cards with over 2500 words plus Wild Cards there are billions of possible combinations. You will probably never see the same sentence twice in a lifetime. English can be a very Funny language.

Product Description

Grades 3 & up. This sentence-building game uses unique five-sided cards with multiple conjugations of a base word. With a hand of 10 cards, players try to score the most points per round by constructing the longest, grammatically correct, and sensible sentence. Any player can object to another players sentence, on either grammatical grounds, or the fact that the sentence just doesn¿t make sense. The defending player and the objecting player get to argue their points to the rest of the players, who form a jury. Half the fun is trying to defend, explain, and justify a completely ridiculous sentence to the other players. First player to reach 200 points wins.

I just purchased this game, and my Mom and I played for about an hour! This game is simple, lively and entertaining with no complex rules, no small pieces to loose, and yet is one of the funnest games I've ever played! It also teaches sentence structure, grammar, vocabulary, spelling, and overall language skills. I recommend this game to everyone!

We pulled this game out on GAME NIGHT with a dozen of our 30 something friends. It turned out to be the funnest game we played. We were laughing hysterically and had an awesome time. This is a BEST KEPT secret game that I expect will become very popular once the word gets out about just how fun it is.

I bought this as a gift for my teenage niece & nephew who love to play board games. In fact, the entire family does,especially when they come for overnight stays at my home. This game is imaginative and fun. Not only are you thinking thru a sentence structure but must use that in a paragraph when challenged. Makes one think more than just rolling dice and moving an object thru a maze of squares. This is a good game for any age and provides hours of fun. You've Been Sentenced!
