This review is from: For the Record 80's and 90's edition (Toy)

Looking for a fun game that covers the broad spectrum of music from the 1980s-1990s? Here it is!

You get 600 music trivia question cards with multiple choice answers. The questions cover everything from rap to reggae, alternative to country, pop to punk and more. The game board looks like an electric guitar and features a mosh pit, and many of the questions are injected with humor, so it's a real attention-grabber at parties. The multiple choice format makes the game challenging enough for trivia buffs, yet equally fun for people who simply love music. We are a pretty hardcore group of fans of eighties music, so we made the game even more difficult by not offering the multiple choice answers. You can involve as many people as you want to if you make teams. You can have four players or teams altogether. Depending on how much time you spend talking and laughing, one game can take about 45 minutes to an hour to play. For the Record is a great way to get friends and family to hang out and have a totally awesome time reminiscing and remembering.

We had the pleasure of playing FOR THE RECORD 80's-90's with some family and friends. We played using teams to try to pool our knowledge. The packaging and graphics are very well done. It has a double-necked guitar game path covered with 80's-90's images. You feel like you've gone back in time. The multiple choice format was very helpful as some of our memories aren't what they used to be. One of the teams chose not to use the multiple choice answers on their turns for an extra challenge. The categories are "80's","90's", "Mosh Pit", "You're On Stage" and the toughest ones, "One Hit Wonder" and "Real Name". We had fun because the game requires a mix of luck and skill. The questions range from easy to very difficult, so there was something for everybody. Nobody felt left out! We played three times that night averaging about 45-50 minutes per game (with alot of singing and air guitar thrown in). Our place was rockin' and we can't wait to play again. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS GAME!!!

This review is from: For the Record 80's and 90's edition (Toy)

I love playing board games. Because my husband is visually impaired, he can't play a lot of the games that we enjoy on a more regular basis. But man is he a music buff. So when I ran across this game, I picked it up, and figured we would all get a kick out of it.

Well, all I can say is "Thank heavens for multiple choice!" They really even out the playing field for those of us without the ear for detail.

While my husband knows much about the bands, the albums, all the rest of it, my sister and I are lucky to remember the lyrics. But, instead of Michael being full steam ahead, we find that we are all on track and the games stay pretty close. For all of us growing up in the 80s and 90s, we enjoy remembering songs and musicians that we grew up with, and learning interesting facts about them!

If we have one complaint, it's that there aren't enough spaces on the board. It doesn't take too terribly long to play, less than 30 minutes, but we just play more games to make up for it.

The game is a lot of fun, kind of like watching "I Love the 80s/90s" on VH1. Enjoy!
