Cranium Game

Pros: Loads of different activities making each game "new."
Cons: Young teens and older; team play only. But that's not necessarily a "bad thing."

Pros: Variety of games in one game
Cons: silly sub-category names

Pros: Great family fun, easy to learn, simple and yet challenging.
Cons: Writing too small on the cards for these old eyes.

I want to thank those who have written and asked about the health of my husband Michael (Payso). I have not been able to update my Epinions Profile page for some time now, and have written and made epinions aware of the...

Pros: Incorporates several different skills

Crani-what? If you haven't at least heard of Cranium by now, you've very likely been living under a rock for the past couple of years - it can be found in nearly every store in America, someone is sure to mention it whenever the topic of board ...

INTRO
Ever face this dilemma? You have a bunch of friends over for a get together one night. Fred wants to play Pictionary. Wilma is hankering for some Charades. Betty is jonesing to play some Trivial Pursuit, while Barney would rather just hum...

Pros: Entertaining, easy to learn game
Cons: needs four players and not that suitable for children

I’ve just returned from one of my regular girly-weekend meets. Once every couple of months the four of us get together and spend a night with a few (ok, 4 or 5) bottles of wine, crisps and dip, penny sweets and the obligatory board game. The board game ...

Pros: A very good game that appeals to all of the family.
Cons: The game can be one sided-can win it in 9 questions.

In an attempt to stimulate some ‘Quality Time’ for the family we decided to purchase several board games for Christmas. One was a Harry Potter Cluedo clone (will review this another day), the other was Cranium.

Cranium combines elements of...

Pros: Manages to bring the family together. Diverse range of questions, requiring many different talents.
Cons: Perhaps too difficult for young children - will have to buy expansion packs.

Note – I bought this game a few years ago, so the game may have changed slightly in newer versions, but form what I have seen of the game in stores it looks to be essentially the same. I noted in a recent review on a Harry Potter game that ...

Pros: fun, educational, and easy to play

Pros: FUN
Cons: none

I got this game on sale at our local Zainy Brainy about a month ago, and I kinda forgot about it since it was put away with some Christmas presents.

I have two teenagers and a three year old and always vow to sit and play with them more often...

Pros: You get to flex your acting muscles and be smart in the same game.
Cons: Random disappointing minutia; nothing that can't be tweaked! Also, will be hard for kids.

We have friends over fairly often, and this game is definitely one of our favorites to bring out. The game is terrific because it relies on teamwork and a variety of creative and intellectual tasks. This is no "Candyland"; if you want to win, you're ...
