Bamboozle (1997)

About this game

Comes with a gadget that serves as both a letter cube randomizer and a two-sided timer. One team creates a list of five words from the letters showing on the letter cubes. The other team must guess those words in the same amount of time or less as the first team used to compile the list.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 4 to 99.
• Rules load. At 1.2/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 18 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
