Fun game just like the show
This game comes with cards that have a "survey question" and it's responses, just like the Family Feud game show. I played it twice over the weekend, once with 5 players and once with 13. It is definitely more fun with more people, but 5 is enough to have a good time with it. I wouldn't want to play with any less than 5 as one player is the host of the game. I used a dry erase board to write the # of responses and filled them in as they were guessed. You don't really keep score with this game - the team who wins the round gets to keep the card and the winner is determined by the team that gets 5 cards first, or in our case we just kept playing for a couple of hours and the team with the most cards at the end was the winner.
We had players ranging in age from 8 to 82. It's not really the best game for kids - the 8 year old struggled on most of the questions, so I would recommend it for teens and up. One of our players was an adult who can't read well. It is difficult to find games he can play that don't require reading and aren't designed for small children. He was able to participate and have fun with this game without feeling left out or bringing attention to his reading difficulty.
I was disappointed that the packaging is so large. The only contents of the cube shaped box is a stack of cards (the cards with the surveys, 3 red X's and 3 blue X's, and card with directions on how to play) - it would be much more convenient to be able to store them in a small box like a standard deck of cards. We also came across a few cards with responses that were outdated - like pay phone and stamp machine.
Overall it is a lot of fun and will become a staple at family get-togethers.
