A very, very good party game. Teaches in under a minute & all you have to do is shuffle a deck of cards. Rounds are quick, under 5 minutes and it begs to be played over and over again. It's better if you have 4+, and you can increase the difficulty if you wish. This encourages a lot of table talk, and can be hilarious the clues people come up with. The subject cards have plenty of variance and there are several types to keep it interesting. This is an instant classic.

A simple party game that gets people actually talking about themselves. Which is kind of rare in party games on this website. The number cards mean nothing, so players have to create their own meanings and sense of scale, and actually question how others feel about the topic. I like that the rules don't get in the way of letting players be flexible, changing their hints or building off another's hint. And that is why I enjoyed this so much, players have to be socially aware of each other and react to clues, it reminded me of Just One or Insider.

This game is incredible! So easy to pick up and so much fun. It's like wavelength but everyone gets to play every turn. We spent a long time discussing if Apple smartphones or Heinz Ketchup was a more popular brand. LOL Then we had a couple moments where we were all cheering because we got the right sequence.

I think I prefer this flavor of "put things on an axis" to wavelength - even though that one comes with the fancy wheel. This beautifully produced box evokes better conversation. The axes have some unfortunate wording, but I see this as the pinnacle of this particular party game genre.

A simple pleasure to play that elicits conversations and laughs. It is really an activity not a game. But, in its relaxed unhurried style is sets the stage for all to enjoy. The task to describe an item in a specific category of a continuum that will communicate to your team mates your number between 1 and 100. So real skill and creativity is involved. But there is so little pressure and you all want to work together so it is a positive, enjoyable time for all.
