About this game

A word-explaining game clearly inspired by Alias; under pressure, players must find new ways to describe words to their team mates, while being distracted by the opposing team. Every success moves you one step closer to the finish line. An exciting option is the use of saboteurs to prevent your opponent from reaching the goal.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 4 to 8.
• 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 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
