 Great game! December 26, 2008
This is such a fun game, and the more people you have, the more fun it is. If you have younger children, try the 'Junior' version since there are some words in this version that are difficult for anyone who is not in Jr High or older. We played many times over Christmas with ages 9 to 72, and we all loved this game. There was much laughter at some of the chosen cards.
 For apples to apples--a game to understand American culture. December 22, 2008
This is really an interesting game. I am from Taiwan, and when I play this game with my American friends, it is so funny. By reading the noun in this game. its easy to understand what's happy in the USA. Haha! I recommend to anyone who wants to know or already know American culture.
Games December 21, 2008
This game is great for families, parties or just get togethers. I bought this one for my daughter in college because she kept borrowing ours. It is a great vocabulary builder and teaches alot in the lines of being able to read people. Our entire family loves this game. As I said to a varied group of friends last New Years eve...if you can read, you can play this game.
Great party game for my college students! December 18, 2008
My college aged kids agree on NOTHING except that they both love this game! They have fun with their friends and playing in the dorms. From the title, I thought it was a game for kids! I guess for once, mom was wrong!
Just cards...but they are more fun than most "fancy" games! December 18, 2008
Upon opening the box, I looked for the game "board" without success. It was then that I discovered how simple the game setup is. There are just two types of cards--no buzzer, no dice, no spinners, no hour glass timers--just cards. What I thought was funny, was as my friends and family sat down to play Apples to Apples, almost everyone had the same reaction--where was the "stuff". That is when it occurs to you that this isn't a normal game--which left it up the air as the question lingered--would it still be fun without all the stuff.
The answer is yes. The beauty to this is that it *IS* simple and quick to get started and yet the lack of other items allows them to include a great deal more cards which provides much longer "fresh" game play. This really is the game plus an expansion pack or two bundled together, which makes it a good value. The fact that it is VERY fun makes it a GREAT VALUE. We have played the game way past the normal stopping point every single time because it is simply so much fun that no one wants to stop playing.
I am not going to explain the game play because I think that has already been covered well, but this game is without a doubt worth picking up. One of the friends I played with already purchased her own copy because she fell in love with it. I expect the next week will include a lot of Apples to Apples fun as my family comes together for the holidays. So if you are looking for something different to play with a group of people, you have found it!
