Shindig Machine (2013)

About this game

Shindig Machine is a series of collaborative storytelling games for 3-8 players. You work with (or against) the other players using a custom deck of striking black and white 108 cards to tell the future, slander fictitious politicians, diagnose rare diseases, and meddle with movies like a studio executive. Shindig Machine includes more than a dozen game types, with play times to fit any attention span. Get your friends together and have fun!

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 3 to 8.
• Rules load. At 1.7/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
