Editorial Review

That iMAgiNiff was developed by two brothers (in Australia) makes perfect sense, because this is a board game you'll want to share with family and friends. It's simple to play. A set of names is chosen, usually the name of every player plus those of several absent friends. When it's your turn, one name is selected as the subject of the question. You pick a card--one of hundreds--that poses a question and six possible answers (for example, "Imaginiff _____ were a crime. Which would he/she be?"). Read the question aloud, plugging in the subject's name. Then read out the six answers (in this case, they range from "homicide" to "indecent exposure"). Each player picks an answer to fit the subject; those who have picked the most popular answer move forward. But though you win by advancing, winning is obviously not the point: laughter and arguments are. The questions on the cards range from the ridiculous ("Imaginiff _____ were a body part.") to the provocative ("Imaginiff _____ had to decide which of the following values is most important."). The game is a fun cross between Scruples and True Colors. --Elisa Murray ... Read more

iMAgiNiff - Find out what your friends think of you
I played iMAgiNiff last night for the first time. It was a blast. It is a great way for friends to find out what they think of each other. Many of the questions sparked lively discussions.

We had less than 8 people playing so we filled in some famous people in the extra spots. That added a cool twist to the game.

I can't wait to play with my family. But I don't think I am ready to play with the in-laws.

Great Family Game
Some games are so competitive that it spoils the fun. Not this one. It is so much fun to play that you don't really care who wins. We played with our adult children at Christmas and laughed until we cried. It is a great bonding experience!

A great game!
Imaginiff will get your mind cranking...If Fred was an animal...what would he be??? Gather round with your friends and see how well you know them...and the people you are playing with! Great for birthday parties, family gatherings, or just a friday night with the dinner gang. This game will definitely get your imagination going!

Awesome!!!
I played this game with a group of adult family members and we had a blast! It's so much fun to play and some of the choices are hilarious. It's sometimes scary how "dead-on" a question or choice might be, too. I love to play games with family and would definitely recommend this one! It's great because you can play with such a large age group...our group ranged from 18 to 55. Definitely worth picking up for the holidays!

A great bame
My family and I had a great ime playing it. My brother is 15 and usually he doesnt like being seen in public with us, but he loved this game, and when it was done, he asked to play again. when you play, you really find out who knows you the best, and at the same time, find out things about your friends and family you didnt know about:) ...

Learning FUN!
I highly recommend this game! Very fun while still being extremely educational. The best way to learn is while your having a good time doing it. My son (4 years) has this game and we have given the Jr. version as a gift. The Jr. version is appropriate for pre-readers.

Great for all ages
My son started playing this when he was 3. At 4, he can name all the states, abbreviations, capitals and most of the state birds. He can tell you where the major points of interest are without looking at the map. It helps to teach the concept of distance, such as "which state is closest to Maine". It also teaches the concept of compass direction, such as "which state is north of Texas". The game can be played with or without a board for portability. All in all a great educational game for children as well as adults.

Great for Adults!
You don't need the board to play this game, just take the flash cards with you to travel, etc. Make up your own rules, as you'll have fun 'refreshing' your memory of states, capitals and landmarks. I'd even recommend it for kids ;)

Love this game
I've enjoyed playing this as much as the kids. Very educational and fun. The kids don't even realize they're learning, but their interest in and knowledge of geography has improved immensely! ... Read more

Clear your throat and drink that honey-lemon tea: It's time toplay Encore, the game of dueling larynxes. The goal is to come up witha song that contains particular words--and then sing lines from thesong that contains those words. Here's how it works: The first teamturns up a card featuring five words; the two teams then take turnssinging at least six words of any song that contains one of those five.The round continues until one team is stumped, which, if the word is"love," could take a while. But repetition is not allowed, and forevery "said" and "moon," there's a "highway" or "piano"--whaddya dowhen you've exhausted the Billy Joel songbook? And it's great to draw alyric that's in a song title, but if you don't know five others thatcome after, you'll be like the player who drew "nice"; he spent theentire run of the sand timer with his shoulders hunched like Sinatrabecause he couldn't connect "and let's make all the stops along theway" with the song's title, "Nice 'N' Easy." Oh, and don't play Encorewith Renaissance Faire actors--when they draw the word "lady," they'llcome up with an inexhaustible supply of 15th-century madrigals. Onlyafter they've won will you discover that they were all bogus. --TonyMason ... Read more

Great game, depending who you play with
The premis for this game is intruiging and fun -- to be able to come up with a song that has lyrics that use words identified by the game.

The reason I gave the game 4 stars, however, is that I had an awful experience the first time I played the game. Here's the scoop...the group I played with included my father-in-law (a country music singer) and young brother-in-law (a rap fan). They repeatedly claimed and sang songs and tunes I had never heard of. I'm not saying that any cheating went on, but I was so far out of the loop about the songs they were choosing that there was no way to tell who was winning and who was losing. Well, OK, I was losing.

This can be a fun game if played with your musical peers. It can be a major disaster otherwise.

I hope this insight helps someone out there.

Favorite Board Game
My family LOVES this game. You never know where your inspiration will come from; in my house we've gone from Sinatra to Dead Kennedys to vacation bible school songs. You spend as much time laughing as singing! Forget musical talent! As long as you know the words and can closely approximate the tune, you're golden.

The Best Game Ever
We are big game players and have never had more fun with any other game. It's great for a party of adults, for adults with kids, for college kids...whatever. People always talk about it weeks after we play. Our middle school son and his friends will always join in if they see us playing with friends which says a great deal!! We've played with all of our friends, our kids, both sets of parents (!), relatives, my minister, people from other countries and people we didn't know at all. I would say it's the perfect icebreaker but you won't stop playing. LOL They put the board back in which is great. There should be a tv show! Our 17 year old would be world champ!

Love it!
This has been a favorite game of mine for years. I've played it with many friends and they always love it. It's great with a big group of people too. I'm glad to see it's available again.

Encore is a terrific name!
You'll want to play this game again and again. It works with a few people and it works with a crowd of 100. My parents love it, my teenage sons love it, and my friends went out and bought their own. You'll be thinking about it days later and looking forward to the next time. I've given alot as gifts and people are always excited by it. College kids go nuts over it. Trust me, you won't regret getting one. (or two, or three...) ... Read more

Editorial Review

The game is called Wit's End, which is just where you mightfind yourself when playing this lively contest of lateral, literal, andlevel-lifting thinking. Players try to reach the summit of the board byanswering questions in four categories such as Odd 1 Out, Teaser,Sequence, or the ever-troubling Wild Card--a nerve-jangling catchallfor trivia, slang, quotations, and time-limited queries. Wit's End istougher than most trivia-based games, and it's deceptive, too. Playersneedn't answer all categories to win, so how tough can it be to move upthe board? Well, for every "Arrange Jaws, The Sting, andStar Wars by release date" there's a "Borneo is to 3, asHispanola is to: 1, 2, 3, or 4?" (And it's got nothing to do withnumber of syllables--we peeked.) If you can name four Europeancountries starting with S (while an opponent counts to 30), canyou do as well with "millimeter is to centimeter, as chain is to: link,decimeter, furlong, or ounce"? There's also an optional "Sorry!"feature that allows you to bounce an opponent down a level for correctanswers to certain questions. Smart and sophisticated, with asoupçon of luck, Wit's End is a game to challenge both greatwits and those only halfway there. --Tony Mason ... Read more

It's not that great
I put this game on my wishlist because I love board games (especially trivia games and brain teasers), and the reviews for this game were outstanding for the most part.

But this game is boring. It takes for-freaking-ever to finish. You have to wait around while the other player reads his/her own questions. And it's cheap-looking.

I suggest you buy another game. There are a million trivia games that are more fun than this one.

best trivia game by far!
I've played Wit's End several times in the past month and highly recommend it to those who are tired of mindless board games. This one is a keeper. The questions are tough, but the multiple-choice format is an excellent way to overcome the level of difficulty. The material is far-reaching and superbly presented. This game is a classic! If you are a reader, student, professional, or even mildly curious about the world around you, then buy this game.

Fun for all demographics
Despite some strange reviews to the contrary, this game will appeal to anyone who enjoys trivia games, whether you live near a coast or not. It is a fun and clever twist on traditional trivia games, but it's not impossibly difficult. Even people who live in Alabama, Kentucky, or Nebraska will find this game enjoyable.

Vermont Yankees Could Learn A Thing Or Two
Wow....I'm amazed that prejudice towards the South is still rampant. Hopefully, Wit's End will entertain as well as educate our Yankee friends!

Not For The Faint of Heart
Wow! This is a great game. Finally, while the kids are off playing pictionary, us adults have something fun that will show off what we know. As a few reviewers have indicated, steer clear of this game if you enjoy watching Ricky Lake, Oprah, Soap Operas, Temptation Island, Average Joe, or Joe Millionaire. There aren't many questions about these shows and watching them sucks the smarts right outta ya. So, enjoy this game with your family and don't get sucked into the junk on TV. ... Read more

What food gives Popeye strength? What country calls its native inhabitants "aborigines"? What street sport sees cuts and scrapes from falls called "munchies"? Answer correctly and you just might score a wedge in the junior version of the wildly popular Trivial Pursuit. Using the same game play as the adult edition--players move their pieces around the board, answering questions in hopes of collecting all six scoring wedges--this kid-friendly format includes categories just for the 8-and-older crowd. Young trivia buffs will be challenged and entertained by this lively game of wits and memory. But the real fun comes when adults try to join the game. So, Pop, what are Wakko, Yakko, and Dot better known as? The game, for two to four players or teams, includes a 20-by-20-inch folding gameboard, question-and-answer cards, dice, four tokens, and 24 scoring wedges. Oh, yes, Wakko et al. are Animaniacs! --Emilie Coulter ... Read more

An awesome game for kids to play
I have played Trivial Pursuit and couldn't get my hands off it! Its fun, cool, and best of all the questions are just right for kids.Buy it now, and make you kids smarter!

Great for the Family!
My 7-year-old daughter and I love to play this game together. She is learning so much from it! We've played it so many times that we really need new questions, though.

Okay for very young ones
(I'm writing from the perspective of a 35 year-old.) You don't get a whole lot of questions (two small decks), and we have come across a few that do not match the category they are supposed to represent (e.g., a question about painters in the "games" category). The game seems to have been put together quickly and cheaply. You don't get plastic "pie" pieces as in the adult version, you get cardboard slices that you set on top of pictures of the pies that are drawn on the corners of the gameboard (not a major complaint but the colors of the drawings exactly match the colors of the cardboard pie-slice markers, making it hard to see them). The questions include multiple choice answers, so it's accordingly easier to get them. Of course you can simply omit the choices when reading the questions if you want to increase the level of difficulty. It's not a bad game, but it's not an excellent game either. Middle of the road. Probably best for kids under 12.

FUN GAME
This is a very fun game. No offense to anyone, but the person that said that these questions are for five-year-olds is definetely wrong, unless that person is a genious. Most of the questions are NOT very easy. OK, some are kind of simple, but most are pretty hard. There are all kinds of different questions, that some people who are watch football and baseball all day would probably know. I highly reccomend this game. It's a fun way to get smart.

Awesome game to play with your kids!
This game is really nice for families. We play on teams, and even my little four year old can help out. When I answer, I don't get the multiple choices, to make it fair. It's a blast!! ... Read more

It Got the Party Started!
My brother borrowed my Fact or Crap game, after I told him how much fun my husband and I had with it with our friends (We are in our low 30's). My brother and his friends are in their 20's.
He threw it in the trunk of his car, where it sat for weeks! One night, he was at a party with his girlfriend and it was pretty lame. My brother remembered the game in the trunk and brought in and everybody started playing it. It really sparked conversation and there were all different ages and types of people there. The party really came to life and it turned out to be a fun night. My brother said that people even learned a lot while playing. And...That's a fact!

* * Very Fun Game * *
Fun game that will give you lots of laughs!!

* Just Plain Fun *
This is a great game if you just want a simple night to kick back and have lots of fun and laughs.I am in my 20's and play this when we have family gatherings or when my friends and I are just hangin' at home for the night.We love it and always have such a blast while playing it.

not worth it
boring - a one note game. this could have been a card game - i thought it would be more involved. when you guess something correctly, you get a token and once the tokens are gone, you count them up and whoever has the most wins. the only twist is a kind of lightning round, but it's not enough to keep it interesting. the questions are cute, but the novelty wears off sooner than later.

Balderdash is more fun...sitting around without a game and talking is more fun.

Get Hooked
If you love trivia, you have got to get this game! It's fast, easy, and there is no board to have to deal with. You can play singles or doubles. I just wish there were additional cards that we can buy as we have gone through all the cards several times. You will have hours of fun, but I feel the questions are too hard for children. ...

Family game player
We played Phoney Baloney five or six times last week. Once for a party and the other times as a family. Once we didn't even finish the game because we started talking about one of the subjects in the game. We also use the cards as topics for our home schooling. We received our game as a gift, then later gave two as gifts to our friends. The only thing that could be improved is the card holder. It's no big deal and doesn't change the game, but it should be made of plastic instead of card board. The rest is great.

A rivalry of knowledge!
Outwit and outsmart your opponents, but not with the right answer. This time, you have to choose the wrong answers. The more answers that you get that are wrong, the more points you get. Confusing, right? Not at all. You get on a roll going as fast as you can to beat your opponents for an intriguing and fun game. Plus, this helps you understand the rule of elimination. So even if you don't know the right answer, you can choose the ones that you know are obviopusly wrong. Or you can just geuss.

Just like you did on your tests at school, right?

Better than Trivia Pursuit
Phoney Baloney gives interesting facts before asking the question. These facts, as well as that all players participate on every turn, has led to fun family times and good discussions. It's also the only game I know where there can be more than one winner. Phoney Baloney is a winner.

Family Fun!
This game is pure fun! We have a busy family life with not much free time. I do like trivia and learning new things so I bought it. Our 16 year old played with my husband and I. It was the first time in a while we all had a good time together. The game is challanging and moves quickly. Everyone is playing at every turn so there is no boredom. The subjects are so interesting that you end up discussing them during each move. This is a great game and I hope it gets the recognition it deserves!

Finally, a thinking persons game!
I've played most every party game and trivia game and found Phoney Baloney to be more inviting and far more interesting. The subjects were very clever, and having everyone play at the same time kept the whole group entertained. This game seems to get people talking, and I like that. The game pieces with the moving eyes were fun. ... Read more

You wont be disapointed!!!
As a child I use to play 20 questions with my grandparents all of the time. I bought this game for me and my family and wow I was so happy! The questions are great and its better than actually playing without the board game. Its hours of fun and is made so nicely. Would be a great gift or to keep yourself.

Surprisingly addictive.
I first played this game at a friends house over New Year's. It was such a delight to play!

The first player draws a card. Each card represents a person, place, thing, or year. At the top of the card is the answer and what category it falls in. The rest of the card contains twenty clues. The next player selects a number between 1 and 20 and marks the board so that no other players will ask for the same clue. The player with the card will read the clue aloud. The player asking for the clue gets one guess. If he/she is wrong, the next player asks for a clue and marks off the board that number.

Play continues around the board until either someone guesses correctly the identity of the card, or all twenty questions are exhausted. Once the card is revealed the correct guesser gets to move ahead as many spaces as the unasked clues. In other words, the few clues you need, the farther you'll move on the board. The person with the card is awarded a number of spaces corresponding to the number of asked questions. So, the more clues revealed, the farther they will move on the board.

Here is an example of a clue card (I'm a thing)... 1. I was invented in 1868. 2. I'm usually found on the rocks. 3. My colors are red and white. 4. I am sometimes associated with narcotics. 5. I'm a classic. 6. What I am made of is a closely guarded secret.

The answer is...

Coca Cola.

This is a marvelously fun and educational game to play. I highly recommend this game.

Good Family Bonding Game
When we first received this game as a gift, the old 20-questions format didn't exactly excite us. But we are gamers, so three generations sat down around the table to check it out. Boy, did we have fun! In fact, we played it twice in a row.

Although younger players are at a slight disadvantage overall, they still earn points on their turn as the "Reader." And the game is definitely up-to-date with pop culture questions that teens will know while stumping the older crowd.

The game is organized into people, places, things and dates categories, dates being, by far, the most difficult and one you might want to skip when playing with the kids. A typical round might go as follows. Let's say you have an "I Am a Place" card and the first player choses Clue # 7, "I am fourth in line." The turn goes to the next player if the first player's guess is incorrect. Clue #17 says, "Some people mistake me for a star." Clue #2 says, "I am not sun burnt, but I am red." (Players pick which clue the Reader reads.) By now you may have guessed that the answer is the planet Mars. Players move along a game board depending on how many clues it took before they guessed correctly.

Imagine the fun when you get to the TeleTubbies, George Clooney or Dracula cards. Definitely a good addition for gaming families! ... Read more

Do all of the questions in your original Trivial Pursuit game seem familiar? Are you blurting out the answer before the entire question has been asked? If so, you can rejuvenate your game and bring the challenge back by adding this set of Know-It-All cards (with more than 1,000 new questions) to your favorite Genus edition of Trivial Pursuit. Or you can use the Know-It-All cards, the included dice, and score sheets to play a self-contained game without needing a game board or playing pieces. Perfect for travel.

This game is good for proving intellectual superiority!!
Trivial Pursuit Know-It-All Edition provides yet another beautiful opportunity to spend 5 or so hours competitively debating inane factoids! If you purchase Trivial Pursuit with a credit card--instead of a signature--try: "I'm petty" or "I care about stupid things" or "I like to be right" or "I think I know everything" or "I don't believe in intuition" or how about "I believe there is such thing as an objective truth." Then you can go out and take some Standardized tests for fun and then dash back home to play some more know-it-all.

What a Waste of Money...
Although the game is entitled "Know it All" Edition, I was bitterly disappointed with the level of difficulty. Expecting a challenge, I was greeted with the same old junior high school type general knowledge questions. What made things worse, was that after only one and one half games, the other player and I had already come back to the beginning of the deck. This edition would have been more aptly called, " A Few More of the Same Questions for an Exhorbitant Price".

Complete waste of money
You're paying ... for half a handful of trivial pursuits that you'll exhaust in one game. In addition, the questions aren't at the same level as normal Genus edition -- they ask questions about people and things you probably haven't heard of. Jeopardy champions would have difficulty answering these questions. ... Read more

cousinpaco is unbeatable at this game!!!
If the new edition of "Movie Mania" is even close to being as cool as the original, it's a definite 5-star item (hence the fact that I gave it five stars--well, fifteen, actually). I'm thrilled to be the first person to review it!

The game consists of quotes, trivia questions and other stuff that you have to answer to move around the board. Once you succesfully answer a question from each category, you win! Really, there are no losers!

I received the original version as a gift from my chum chatchi, and we had hours of fun playing it. We're quite well-versed in movies, as you can tell by reading some of our other reviews. My only complaint is that the original version had too many questions and quotes from movies that I'd never heard of, including one starring Michael Biehn (I can't remember the title).

So when you need a break from actually watching movies, you can play this game and keep your movie-game-skills sharp. ... Read more

I highly recommend this game to anyone who has a true interest in learning more about horses.

It was fun and stupid!
I got this game for my birthday.As soon as i opened it i had 2 play it.So we sat atthe table playin this game.It was fun but the answers were way to easy we ended up with everybody gettin every answer right so we just had 2 stop.I wish i could of played it longer but it got so boring i had to start playin herd your horses.A game a got last year for my birthday!So if u could make the game questions a little harder i would enjoy iy a lot lot more!
Thx

Awsome game
I havn't had that much of a chance to play this game but it is great. It is a trivia game for all horse lovers. you can play with up to four people. you have to answer enough questions of diffferent catagories such as care and riding to win.

don't waste your money...
The Breyer HORSE SENSE game is not worth a dollar. The questions are not challenging at all!!! Even little kids will find it silly! For example (from the cards): WHAT IS AN EQUINE VETERNARIAN? a. a duck doctor b. a water scientest c. a vet who specializes in horses\WHAT IS A HORSE'S DIET COMPOSED OF? a. cotton candy and soda, b. chips and candy, c. grains and bulk foods? A HORSE USES ITS TAIL TO? a. brush its teeth b. swish off flies c. look pretty.
As you can see, HORSE SENSE is really not worth ANYTHING! Don't waste your money, get HERD YOUR HORSES.

Breyer 'Horse Sense' Game
I enjoy playing with this game very much, some of the answers to the questions are FUNNY!!! Navigate around a colorful game board with a miniature cardboard Breyer model, and answer questions along the way from four different categories. For every category you correctly answer a question for, you get one of the four pieces of a first place ribbon. The first player that collects the whole ribbon and gets back to the barn first is the winner!! I reccomend this game to any horse lover. ... Read more

Take a stroll down Main Street with Opie and Barney in the AndyGriffith Show Trivia Game. It's fairly simple to play: Just roll thedie and move your pawn around the spiral. Each space asks you to answera true-or-false, multiple-choice, or single-answer question related tothe show and its characters. Some of the queries are pretty tough,asking for particular names of characters who appeared in only oneepisode, for example, while others are pretty easy--can you name thetown barber? Play takes an hour or two, and even if you're not a fan,you'll soon be nostalgic and checking your TV listings forreruns. --Rob Lightner ... Read more

Not as much fun as checkers, but it'll do
In the right company - a chapter of "The Andy Griffith Show Rerun Watchers Club," for instance, or any group of Mayberry-minded cronies - this game can be a lot of fun. Beware, though, if your opponents are only casual watchers: They'll be bored and you'll win handily, but without satisfaction, every time.

The main problem with this game is its lack of drama. Play consists of rolling a single die and answering trivia questions (true/false, specific answer, multiple choice) to advance your token around the board. That's it: There are none of the unexpected detours, setbacks or rewards that distinguish the best board games.

Had the board included Mayberry landmarks (The Courthouse, Floyd's Barber Shop, Wally's Service Station, The Diner, Myers Lake, etc.) and corresponding activities, play would be enlivened tremendously. The game would also be more enjoyable if it included questions about the program's stars, guest stars and other "reality" aspects, instead of dealing solely with character and Mayberry-oriented trivia.

Despite its shortcomings, I recommend this game to those TAGS fans who have to have absolutely everything associated with the show, and to anyone lucky enough to have enough Andy-philes in their orbit to organize a fair game.

This is a handsome product (despite the rather crude and unflattering portrait of Andy and Opie on the box and on the board itself) and is sure to become a coveted collector's item in the future. It would make an excellent gift for any TAGS fan in your life.

NOTE: "Educational value" really does not apply to this game,
unless you are seeking to expand your knowledge of TAGS! ... Read more

Unless you have a strong familiarity with every episode ofI Love Lucy, a round of the I Love Lucy Trivia Game may leave youfeeling a little out of the "Desiloop." Players move around the boardanswering questions (true/false, multiple choice, and specific) aboutthe classic sitcom. Do you remember the first six words to theVitameatavegemin commercial? What time did Ricky return to the hotelafter the film premiere? How much was the fare when Fred took the taxito Grand Central Station? What happened to Charles Boyer's clothing whenLucy asked for his autograph? Name the man who got Lucy and Ethel theirjobs at Kramer's Kandy Kitchen.

(Learn all There is to Know On the Show)
Very challenging. Thats all I have to say. The game is fun but the questions are very tough. I knew some of the answers but not many. Even when watching I Love Lucy for a long time I still don't know all the answers but thats what makes it tough and challenging but fun and you learn more about each episode. There are 250 cards in the box and each card has 4 questions on it. Its a fun game that will get your brain to really think about each question. There are muliple choice questions, true or false, and questions with specific answers. The object of the game is to be the first person or team to reach the final square by successfully guessing questions read to you by your opponent(s). Over all its fun but tough.

Disappointing
I was so excited when I recieved this as a birthday gift for my 20th birthday! After my party, I had a few people stay behind and play this game. We were all avid Lucy fans, yet none of us found this game all that much fun. I probably liked it the best out of everyone, but even I got bored with it. The questions are just too difficult for most people. They ask for specifics that are impossible to know, unless you are a complete Lucy fanatic. I will never play this game in a group again. I do find it fun, however, to just look through the cards every once in a while. There is a lot of information in the cards, and I suppose this game could be fun for some one who has seen every Lucy episode 200 times.

Ashleigh LOVES LUCY!
This was a great gift for my teenage daughter. She just loved this gift for last Christmas. I wish you carried more I Love Lucy Items, they are hard to find. I would definately give this to any fan of Lucy.

Thanks for offering such high quality items, will always shop here!

Mainly for die-hard Lucy fans
I am a huge fan of I Love Lucy, and I have many episodes memorized backwards and forwards, but there were still some puzzling questions in this game. This game is definitely only for die-hard Lucy fans, not the casual watcher. I imagine it would be a big success with Lucy fan clubs, and groups of Lucy enthusiasts. Some of the trivia is very minute, behind-the-scenes details. Having read many behind-the-scenes books, some of the questions were still a bit obscure. Still, it's great fun for the Lucy enthusiast.

This One's for the Die-Hards
As someone who's seen every episode of "I Love Lucy" eight million times, and who thinks the show is the greatest sitcom of all time, I enjoy this game very much. If you're planning on buying this game for children, however, these questions may be a little too difficult for them. I can finish this game in about five minutes, but that's only because I've read just about everything ever published on "I Love Lucy" and am involved in some Internet chats on the show and so forth. Even I get stumped, from time to time, with some of the questions. But then again, some of the questions are pretty easy, too. So, if someone wants this game, they should also at some point buy the book "Desilu," or Lucille Ball's or Desi Arnaz' autobiographies. Or just tune in and watch the show on TV. This game does give you a good feeling like you're recreating a "Lucy" episode. ... Read more

Follow in the King's footsteps as he takes you and up to three other players on a concert tour from Tupelo to the sacred acres of Graceland. The board game uses trivia (example: "What song from the movie Fun in Acapulco earned Elvis a gold record?") about Presley's life, movies, music, appearances, and related people and events to chart a trip along the guitar-shaped playing path. The game comes with a die; four sculptured playing pieces; 150 category cards that hold 1,500 trivia questions; 50 "Now or Never" cards; 20 Gold Album discs that look like poker chips; and 20 Gold Album covers that actually look like miniatures of Presley's real album covers. Correct answers gain you gold albums, and the player that gets to Graceland with five different albums wins. Rock & roll! --Diane Beall ... Read more

Ever wonder what it would be like to play Trivial Pursuit with JulesVerne? Well, take a seat around Peoples of the Planet, the time-traveling triviagame that lets intrepid anthropologists tiptoe around the globe, answeringmultiple-choice questions culled from world cultures past and present. Playersattempt to assemble an "Explorer's Great Book of Ages" by correctly answeringone question in each of nine time periods, from 3 million years B.C. to Y2K.Querying whether fennel seeds in England circa 1084 were used for invincibility,a popcorn-like snack, or odor-eaters or whether that five-ton meteorite that hitRussia in 1888 dissolved, was eaten by the locals, or has since been coveredwith vegetation, the deck of 252 Exploration Cards amuse, amaze, and educate.Factor in the ingenious formula for movement of tokens (there are dice, but nogame board per se) and you'll be begging for a booster pack of question cards.Whether the subject is Mesopotamians or Manhattanites, Peoples of the Planet isout-of-this-world. --Tony Mason ...

Fun for kids
My six year old loves this game, but it's too easy for adults. If I don't pretend I don't know the answer, then I will beat him every time. It's great for kids to play with each other.

This game is entertaining. Fun and challenging game. Keeps kids alert and working on clue giving skills.

Great Game
My seven year old daughter loves to play this game! I love it because it's very educational. She enjoys using her knowledge from school and just general knowledge to figure out the answer. She's learned a lot of new things, too. ... Read more
