Fin Times (Rating: 5.00) Review : My friends and I play this game all the time... and we're always laughing. It reminds me of Taboo with a sharaides-like twist :-) I love this game !! (Rating: 5.00) Review : I just played this game yesterday at my Thanksgiving dinner,and everyone was kind of off in different groups until we started playing the game and we had so much fun ! Guesstures Will Be Sure To Keep You Guessing (Rating: 4.00) Review : Along with "Catch Phrase," this game was another thing that I discovered in college. This twist on charades has a lot of parallels to "Catch Phrase" - you have to get your team to guess what is on a series of four cards before time runs out by using motions. When time runs out, the cards on display are sucked down into the machine one by one, and any points attempting to be gained from the cards are lost. And just like "Catch Phrase," people get really flustered when they know time is winding down. Just seeing the looks on peoples' faces when the cards start dropping is worth the price of this game. Fun: This is great to play with a large group. It's not as easy as it sounds to perform, either, especially when you're the one trying to get your teammates to guess what's on the cards. The timer is faster than you think, and by the time the initial shock of seeing that first card go hits, the second card is sucked down into the machine. This sets up some great laughs for people who get really panicky when things start going wrong. Educational Value: Not only do you have to be able to perform well (it teaches you how to act, don't you see?), it is also a thinking game. You've got to be able to use your brains to figure out what the person is trying to convey to you. Take too long in figuring out the answers, and bye-bye go the cards! Durability: The storage unit is pretty durable. It's not going to break if you drop it, but I wouldn't go and test that theory by dropping it 10 or 12 times just to see how tough it is. The only thing that could be a concern is a card perhaps jamming in the machine, but that should never happen. I've never seen it happen anyway. In short, this is a great game. It really works with a large amount of people, and it never fails to entertain. |
