This is a fun Office-themed party game, but if you're a hardcore fan or even regular viewer you'll most likely find the questions too easy. The DVD is well-produced and has some funny moments in addition to Toby's mopey narration, but the game board is rather unexciting and the game pieces are just cardboard cutouts.

Not bad, but if you're looking for trivia, keep on walkin'.

We were very excited when we received the Office game as a gift. My husband and I are both huge fans and we thought it would be a great game for the 2 of us to play as well as a wonderful game to play with our friends, who also watch the show regularly. We were disappointed when we played the game however because it is very poorly made. There are only a few clips and they are constantly repeated and very few have anything to do with the questions. We were expecting it to be like Scene it where there is a clip and you have to discuss something in it or identify a quote or something of that sort but it would show a clip and then ask an irrelevant question. The idea of this game is great and there is so much potential but this is just not living up to it.

As a die-hard Office fan, I was very excited to get this game. However, after playing this game for a short while, it didn't take long for my excitement to turn to disappointment. The game basically consists of random trivia questions, some of which are actually based on the show's episodes and some that are indirectly related. For example, the game shows a clip one of Pam's talking heads from Season 4 where she's figured out that Michael is quoting from the movie "Million Dollar Baby." Then you're asked the question "Who directed 'Million Dollar Baby'?" The answer to this question is not something you would know by watching the show, but rather by being familiar with the movie.

There are some fun things about this, but perhaps my expectations were set too high. A significant frustration is the discussion by Toby after you answer a question, which just seems to take too long. In addition, if you answer a question incorrectly, you don't get to find out what the correct answer is.

My sister and I were so excited to get this game and boy were we disappointed. For the devoted fan of the series, this game is incredibly boring. Most of the questions are not challenging at all, even for people who are not constant viewers. Tobey's voice gets annoying after awhile. The game has no challenging aspects to it at all. We played it only once and that was enough

The Office DVD Board Game was a terrible disappointment. After looking forward to playing, we couldn't even finish one game. The different categories are really all the same; the clips have nothing to do with the questions; and the intro clips repeat over and over to point of total annoyance. Don't waste your money.

I bought this for my college daughter who is a HUGE Office fan. She was so excited to receive it, but that excitement faded quickly. The questions were too basic for anybody who's really into the show. It might be fun for those that are occasional show viewers, but I doubt that they would then be the ones playing this game!

All in all, a big disappointment.

Bought this as a gift it was much cheaper at Amazon than at the NBC Store and it was the exact same game.

The show is great, but the game is not as entertaining. I got this for my brother for his birthday...he was not as impressed as I thought he would be.

This game is a great idea, but is pretty poorly made. You can tell the creators did not put much thought into the game strategy, and included a very small number of clips that play throughout the game. There's plenty of great office moments, but gameplay leaves MUCH to be desired. Basically...its gets old quick.

this game in my opinion is horrible. the game is too easy and doesnt take that long to play. the questions were very elementary, that is the ones that had to do with the show it self. bad buy on my part. i should of bought the trivia game over the dvd game.
