Quick--name a fabulous party game starting with the letter S! Super Scattergories from Hasbro Interactive turns your computer into a wise-cracking game-show host that will have even the designated drivers screaming at the tops of their lungs.
Based on the familiar pencil-and-paper game, the object of the game remains to find members of particular categories; each answer must start with the same letter. The computer version adds some complexity--there's now five different games, including picture identification, category matching, and simple word listing.
The answer interface simplifies the game a bit and speeds it up greatly--only the first three letters of a correct answer are required. Without worrying about misspellings or long guesses, the pace picks up dramatically. The look, sound, and feel of Super Scattergories is reminiscent of You Don't Know Jack, and play is just as fun solo or with teams of any size.
While some of the animations might be poky if you have other programs running or a slower machine, the game clock seems to work fine even under the worst of conditions. If you want something new to distract your guests or just want to work on those language skills, Super Scattergories is just the thing. --Rob Lightner
