Monster Voices (2023)

About this game

Can you say "Mom, can I have another bowl of spaghetti?" in the voice of a were-octopus? Can you become a monster? Monster Voices is a party guessing game where you have to successfully imitate the voice of a monster! Each round, one player becomes the Monster Spotter and lays out nine cards on the table. Each card has a drawing of a goofy monster: A scary skeleton, a goofy globman, a wiggly werewolf, etc. Each other player draws a card that tells them which of those monsters they must become for the round. The Monster Spotter draws a Words of Wisdom card, which tells all other players what phrase they need to say in their monster's voice. In turn, each player says the Words of Wisdom in their best impression of their monster. If the Monster Spotter successfully spots them, both players get a point!

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 10.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 6 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
