Wishful Thinking - Players Think Fast to Solve The Mystery Words in Time - Great for All Ages at Adult and Family Game Night

This oozes fun. I had a wonderful evening playing this with my husband and some colleagues from work, all of whom are pretty into these types of games (a mixture of word/party/trivia/social/etc). There were five of us, playing as two teams (me and two others versus my husband and my sister-in-law). Here's the basic lowdown. It is intriguing trying to work out what the answers on the cards may be, all three I mean. Knowing the first letter is useful, without a doubt, but what really matters is how well your make the association with the hint that is provided. If you click right away with the first one, it gives you more time to ponder the second and third ones. And it's always exciting because you're always staring at the timer. And challenging for sure, but I like how you can ask for help if you need it (which both teams did a lot), even if it leads to fewer points (still better than zero points). Three answers to find in one minute is harder than it sounds. Be happy if you guess two. But when you get a good feel for it, cut the time in half and watch how more difficult it becomes (a different kettle of fish). The dynamic then changes... faster exchanges and more panic setting in. An inspired move to let your rivals bet against you succeeding, as if this game doesn't have enough excitement.

We played this game with two teams of three. Each team had two adults and one child (ages 8 and 11). It was fun, but the clues are pretty obvious...basically just definitions...it wasn't much of a challenge for anyone. I don't see a lot of replay value with this game.

I haven't used it yet, but it looks like fun. Looking forward to using it. Good group game, I"m sure.

This is a very good game. My local library hosts a regular Game-Fest and I brought this along. Visualize four tables of players alternating between four different board games. Right from the start, most of the noise came from my table, which was the first to give this a try. We had a very fun time. A few times others just came to stand and watch us play. It is basically one of those "What's another word for..." games, only much better than any other I have come across. Definitely worth playing.

Not very interesting. Sorry.

This game was fun to play with the family. There was a group of about 10 of us when we played. There were two teachers present and their opinions were that it was a good game for kids play.

My family, friends and I really enjoy word games like this!

Bought this game for my sister and she absolutely loves it! It is such a fun game that can get everyone involved! Simple rules and concept and enjoyable to play! If you are looking for a game to add to your collection, consider this one!
