Pretty Darn Quick Game Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)What a fun game! My kids, as well as the adults love to play this game. It offers great interaction as well as an opportunity to increase one's vocabulary. You utilize roots of words, prefixes, suffixes, etc. Younger children, than 8 yrs, can also play utilizing only 2 cards; which gets them started on appreciating that words can be fun.

Quick! Try to make a word out of the letters SMP. Sound SiMPle? How about PTR? Get the PicTuRe? In this lightning fast party game, it's an all-out race to be the first player to shout out a word using all three letter cards in play. Each round starts with a different set of letters - it's up to you to fill in the blanks. Whoever has the most cards at the end of the game is the WNR! 1 or more playersPlaying time: about 15 minutes

In A Pickle Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My family and I love to play board & card games on a weekly basis. I am always on the lookout for new games to play. While at Barnes & Noble I found this game for 10 bucks and it looked fun and educational. What I found was that this was the most fun card game I had played since Phase 10! Anyone from children to adults can play & suceed at this game. You start by picking 5 cards per person. These cards have nouns on them such as "car, boat, woman, spider, church, student, toy, universe" and then you play 4 cards in the middle of all the players. You must lay a card on one of the 4 main cards. The card you play has to either fit in or on the object card in the middle.
Example: the 4 cards in the middle are "bus, baby, house, car"
and I have "nursery, finger, spiderweb, thief, black hole" in my hand. I play "nursery" on top of "baby". The baby goes into the nursery. The next card you play...the nursery would have to fit on or in that card (church, house, etc, the nursery is in the church) and you go until no one can play a bigger card & the person who played the biggest & last card wins the hand.
For kids, this will teach them reading, definitions,different meanings of the same word, and you have to validate why you played the card to the other players & they vote on whether you can play that card or not.
I had so much fun with this game & you can't help but laugh when other players try and validate a completely idiotic card!
I recommend this game for anyone 8 or older. I will definitely keep this game on our shelf for a long time!

Can a giraffe fit in a phone booth' Does a sofa fit in a shopping cart' It all depends on how you size it up in this game of creative thinking and outrageous scenarios. Try to win a set of cards by fitting smaller things into bigger things -- There's some juice in a pickle, in a supermarket, in a parking lot. Play the fourth word card to claim the set, unless one of your opponents can trump with a larger word. The player with the most sets at the end is the BIG winner! Includes 300 cards and instructions. For 2 to 6 players.
