Great game for groups!!!
WOW!! Played this game for this first time on Halloween! This game is HILARIOUS!! Each player takes turns reading a card...then ALL players write down their answer without showing anyone...the "reader" then reads the answers aloud and each person must try to guess whom might have wrote that particular answer. Questions like "What you might find in a library" gets a whole new meaning when you are with a group of great, funny, close friends! This game is great for any get together...the more the merrier with this outrageous game!!

Needs some modifying.....goes slow.
Bought this game yesterday with high hopes for fun! We have a group of friends that like to play games and this one seemed perfect for us. While we had moments of great laughter and fun, it was mostly way too slow. We will hopefully play again (I may have to do some convincing to the group though!), but will do so with some modifications taken from other similar games. One suggestion: get a dry erase board to write responses down on....makes it move quicker when you don't have to repeat the answers over and over.

Things has to be played to know
This is one of those games that has to be tried out, and once you do, it's really funny. What it does is bring out the comedian in everyone. There's a point system, and it's fun trying to figure out who said what, but like Balderdash, what starts to happen is, people start to go for the laughs instead of the score. Running jokes start to appear - previous answers that make little sense for the new question, but they make everyone laugh. We've played the game where people in the group are still reminding each other of one particular answer a year later.
