Scattergories

Pros: This game is timeless, and ageless.
Cons: It's always the same cards.

This has to be one of my favorite games ever to play with a large group of people. I remember the first time I played it, it was a family Christmas party. I, being the youngest of the cousins, could hold my own for the first time ever. I think everyone ...

Pros: It's fun!
Cons: It really makes you think!

I love Scattergories, but it almost makes me think too hard.

First, let me tell you what it comes with, and then I’ll tell you what to do with it. Get your mind out of the gutters!

Scattergories comes with a cardboard placemat so...

Pros: Quick set up, a blast to play, very versatile in age and number of players
Cons: Loud, buzzing timer, answer sheets get used up

Back in junior high school, my best friend and I played Scattergories all the time. It was something to keep us entertained, while allowing us to use our minds.

Years later, I was looking for a good game to share with friends and...

Pros: Fun, Fast, Imaginative
Cons: Not enough lists

Let's start by saying that I've never played this game with a child. I suppose you could, but...

Scattergories is a great game for a group of people. It can be played casually, with people dropping in and out, or just kibbutzing. The gist...

Pros: Simple to learn, hours upon hours of fun!
Cons: Timer is somewhat noisy. Not enough writing play pads.

I first played this game at one of my friend's houses. After 1 round, I was hooked! But enough of my personal story. I'll give you some basic facts about the game so that you can make an educated decision on whether its a purchase you would like to...

Pros: Educational, lots of fun
Cons: The timer is a little loud

On your mark....get set....now think! You have exactly 2 minutes and 45 seconds to come up with words for all of the 12 categories on your card, that all begin with the letter rolled! With a 23 sided die it could be any letter! And with 12 different...

Pros: Great family fun.

This is a great family game. There are 8 of us in my family and we all enjoy playing this...

Pros: Fast paced, Challenging, Good for Laughs
Cons: Timer is annoying

This is a great game. And pardon the cliche, but "fun for the whole family". We play it with our kids, 12 & 15, and also with my parents. It is a game that we can all play together.

The game is a word game. Each round has...

Pros: Can Play with six people, can play for hours, fun, uses your brain
Cons: timer is annoying

One of my all-time favorite games, Scattergories is fun, challenging and exciting. You can play with 2-6 people, or even improvise and make teams if you want. The object is to fill in the categories with an item that would be appropriate to the topic....

Pros: Makes you use your imagination; different every time you play!
Cons: You may not want to stop!

Scattergories is a hysterically fun group game. It will get your brain thinking, and more than likely, have your guests giggling.

Each player has a card with categories on it. One player rolls the huge alphabet die. The letter it lands on...

Pros: a great game that allows you to have fun while thinking
Cons: you run out of paper quickly

Our family loves games. If we aren't watching a movie together on a Friday night we are playing games. We received Scatergories for Christmas and have almost gone through all of the paper that the game comes with. oops!

We like games that...

Pros: great thinking game
Cons: none

I love this game, I am a total game junkie. This game uses all the brains that you have in your head. One person rolls a 23 sided die and one letter is chosen. Let us say that a R was rolled. The object is to think as originally as possible. In...

Pros: Fun, challenging, educational
Cons: Not for smaller children.

This is a fun and mental-challenging game to play. It challenges how fast and how much you can think. This is a good way to strengthen your brain. I have heard that some people do brainstorming just to exercise their mind. Scattergories will do...

Pros: Fun, loads of laughter, quick paced.
Cons: Experienced players have an edge.

Scattergories is a great game for any party. I have brought it to just about every party I have attended, with many different groups of people, and it's been a hit every time!

Scattergories sells for about $20 and is made by Milton Bradley....

Pros: fast, fun and for the whole family
Cons: none

I don't have this game myself but, every New Years Eve we get together with my grandparents and other family members and play until we can play no more. It is a fun and challenging game. It is fast paced and gets the adrenaline going trying to beat the...
