5.0 out of 5 stars Great Game!, August 25, 2004

I just got back from vacation in Arizona. The next to the last day we played LIKE MINDS. It was a blast from the start and we played it 3 times, and then played 4 more games the next day.

To play you divide into teams of two (although we had 5 players, so one team had 3 players, with 1 player rotating out in each turn - worked great this way).

To start play, a category is read and all players write down as many items in the category as they can, keeping in mind they want to match their partner. But there's a catch. Only one player from each team knows how many exact matches (1 to 4) are needed to win. So, when one of these players thinks their team has enough matches, they grab the plastic brain, and all play stops. If you make the goal, you score a big bonus, but miss it and you score zip. The teams not grabbing the brain score a modest amount, one point for each match, but no bonus.

We had people playing from ages low 20s to low 60s, but teens could also play.

We bought this game hoping to find a good party game to play with friends. What a great purchase. This game is so much fun. You race to write down items in a category and try to match as many items with your partner as you can. The categories range from "things you find in a car trunk" to "things you eat at a baseball game." Everyone who played this game the first night we played it loved it. I would highly recommend buying it.

If you are looking for a new game to play with friends, this is a great one. We played it for a couple of hours one night, and everyone laughed about some of the crazy answers and matches that were made in the game. I would definitely recommend adding it to your game collection. We played with a group in their 20s and 30s, but I also think it would play well with teens and of course those older than 30s.
