Whew! This has been a marathon of reviews! I hope you've hung in there with me and enjoyed seeing some of what's out there that you may not have been aware of. This will be my last review for week or so.....and it's a great one!
The folks at Northstar Games bring us another fun family entertainment golden opportunity with Say Anything Family Edition! This game is much like Wits & Wagers (see previous review here) in how it is equipped. You receive a scoring board, dry-erase markers, dry-erase boards, a box of questions, player tokens, and the ever so "state-of-the-art" SELECT-O-MATIC 6000.
(You see that little cardboard spinner thingy? Yep, SELECT-O-MATIC!)
The judge draws a card and chooses which of 3 questions they would like to ask. Here are some examples for you:
What am I most likely to be doing in 20 years?
If I could have any musician play a private concert for me, who would it be?
What does the world need less of?
Players (recommended for ages 8+) jot down their answer on their boards, judge chooses which one they like best on the S-O-M and turns it face down. Players then place their tokens on the answer they believe is most likely to be chosen by the judge, judge flips over S-O-M and VOILA! Tons of fun and laughter!
Time for thoughts and opinions!
My kids LOVE this game! They think it is so incredibly fun to guess what everybody thinks. They felt a real satisfaction from knowing each of their family members so well- and I have to admit that I felt a littleproud of them. They were thrilled when they had their answer chosen, but they also were happy to hear each other's thoughts and opinions. It really is a great game for promoting a good dose of family unity.
Now, having said that- I must repeat my only concern which I expressed in my Wits & Wagers review-
" I love the concept, but I see buying more dry erase markers in the future- and what about the little boards once they become stained like dry erase boards tend to do?"
You can purchase Say Anything Family Edition at Target for $19.99.
