Less Is More (2021)

About this game

Each round in Less Is More one player is the guesser who tries to identify a term described by others, and those other players try to describe that terms with as few words and letters as possible. To clue "Berlin", for example, you could write "Capital Germany" or you could go with the possibly still decipherable "Cap Germ" or maybe "Cap DE". Whoever uses the fewest letters yet is understood by the guesser scores points.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 3 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.5/5 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.
