![]() At the beginning of the game each player quickly gives a clue about the subject, including the chameleon. It is a social-deduction type game where everyone knows the subject of the round and one person-the chameleon-doesn’t. This is a game for 3-8 players that really only takes about 10 minutes to play. You probably wouldn’t go wrong getting this game for your family! 3. It also seems to keep everyone laughing at the randomness of the questions and hugely varied answers that inevitably come up. It isn’t a strategic or technically difficult game, (even though I love those games too) but it still keeps my interest everytime I play. ![]() But because I love playing Wits and Wagers with friends and family as a light fun game, I left it on this list. I almost left it off the list for that very reason. Wits and Wagers is a massively popular game that so many have played before. But watch out, Grandma may just be hustling you. By the second, she will understand and be already beating you. Grandma can even be walked through the entire set of rules as she plays the first round-and that won’t take more than a minute or two. Whoever has the most money at the end of 7 rounds is the winner. The answer is revealed and bets closest get a payout depending on the riskiness of the bet. Players place bets on which question is closest to the right answer. The guesses are ordered from smallest to largest so the betting can begin. Through 7 rounds, players write guesses down to random, off-the-wall questions and put them in the middle. It is a betting game for 3-7 players but can easily be played with more players on teams. Wits and Wagers is a trivia game turned fun. They always want to play it when we get together 2. I do want to note that, while I really enjoy Codenames, my family REALLY loves Codenames. Players not only need to understand what all of the words on the table mean, they need to be able to find commonalities between the words to come up with a one-word clue. It probably shouldn’t be bought for people under the recommended age of 14 because of the abstract thinking required. I really like Codenames, and it is a great game that can be really fun for most ages. Players that have never played before can pick it up in seconds with one quick example or simply by watching the first team to complete their turn. This is a great teach-as-you-play game because it’s really only got a few major rules to learn. There is one “bomb” word, that if chosen, automatically loses the game. But be careful, bad clues might lead your team to choose the wrong words, which gives the other team points. The first team to correctly identify the right words wins. The clue must be one word and the clue givers can’t use any of the words on the table. Teams take turns-with one player on each team as the clue giver-attempting to get their team to successfully identify the words assigned to each respective team. Each card as a word on the front and the back. The “board” is made up of 25 random cards laid out on the table. ![]() This is a word game for 2-8 players, where players are split into 2 teams.
