I use the Ungame cards in a variety of ways, but what seems to work the best is to incorporate the cards into another game. For example, while playing Sorry, if you draw a 3, 5 or 8 you also draw an Ungame card; when playing Uno, you get an Ungame card when you change the color. Families really seem to enjoy the fun of playing a game as well as getting to talk to each other and hear from each other.

If you want a game that is inclusive and fun for all ages then you've found the best game. We played this game at a recent family reunion. After dinner we sat around and chose a card and then everyone who wanted to, chimed in with their thoughts. We all came away feeling like we knew each other better and my children especially enjoyed the game because they felt closer to their relatives and they learned some things about themselves,too. I plan to buy a bunch of these to give to family and friends.Enjoy!

The Ungame is a board/card game that helps you learn about each other whether you are playing with family, friends, coworkers or spouses. The questions come in easier levels or harder ones depending on how comfortable you feel with your players. You really learn a lot about how people think and perceive themselves and the world with these cards. It's also a great way to open up and maintain the lines of communication with your children.

I would not put the Ungame into the category as a toy but I can see where Amazon feels that it can fall into that category. As a counselor I use the Ungame for kids or teens during their first session to open them up and get to know them. I have never had a client refuse to answer any of the questions or not have fun playing it. I use the Ungame for families & the Ungame for couples to promote communication. I can say that I have used the questions with my own children when I first bought them and they had fun talking about the subjects and answering the questions. Communication is a key to any relationship and the Ungame promotes communications - I don't know that there is much more I could say.

I bought the Ungame for my family and it has created some wonderful conversations. things you learn about each other still, it is enlightening. You could also use this in school in a group or advisory.

I am a special education teacher, and I use this game to do social skills groups with my post-secondary students. The answers to the questions require thought, but are not too complex, nor are they too young for my group. The students love it when we play the "ungame."

This is a great game for getting conversation going... in a family that has become distant or had some issue that closed members off from each other.

This game seemed quite slow pace and difficult to get active young boys involved in.
