Q: Slightly trimmed down in what way? How many players can play? Is it fewer tiles?

submitted by curious - 1 year ago
  • A: Ransom Notes House Party Edition is made for 3-6 players. It includes 660-word magnets vs 850 magnets in the base game. This is a more affordable option without losing any of the gameplay fun! It also has higher quality word magnets that break apart faster and easier.

    Laugher for days

    We laughed so hard and appreciated the easy rules to follow. The rules are generally more guidelines that you can adjust for the group playing the game. You can censor yourself for a more PG rated game, or let loose. Compact size for easy packing up to bring along.

    NEW FAVORITE GAME

    I was bummed at first because it arrived after my cousins already left, but that didn’t even matter because me and my best friend played on FaceTime (not keeping track of score or anything just sharing what we got) and my chest hurts from laughing so much. We played for HOURSSS today. I’m usually skeptical with funny games like these because (no shade to cards against humanities, but using them as an example) some games feel repetitive after you play it a few times, like you already know the cards so it loses its initial reaction, but I know with this game it’s literally endless possibilities of hilarious combinations. My best friend is going to buy it so she can actually move the magnets herself but honestly this is an amazing game to play for distant people (with the right setup). Right after I’m done writing this review I’m LITERALLLYYY going to text all my friends to get this game because this is what everyone is missing from their collection!! (Photo clarification: The big tin holding the all magnets in the photo is actually a colored pencil tin case; the little tin I’m holding is what the game comes with. The photo just shows an alternate way to play) if the company themselves is reading this hmu on tiktok @adhdlauren I would HAPPILY record my friends, family and I playing for a promo. Also I love the sack that was provided it’s a nice touch lol. Oh yeah but best believe I’m taking this with me on my cruise in September

    Hard To See

    The pictures are small it is hard to see details. If anyone in your family does not have perfect eyesight this may be a struggle. Do like how the two boards clamp together and it is easy to store. All the characters are on one sheet so no more struggling with that aspect, but the doors still don't stay closed.

    Too many tiny pieces.

    This game has the potential to be really fun but that gets lost in the tediousness of cycling through the tiny word magnets.

    Such a fun game. Does require some thought. So not a mindless game. But really fun. Our whole family laughed a lot.

    Bored

    Although the concept is interesting this game fell flat. We had a mixed group of teens to adults and we were bored after 5 cards. We will probably not play this game again.

    A fun night at home

    This game is such fun. There isn’t a set time of how long to play. There were four of us and we played for about 45 minutes and there was a lot of laughing while putting our answers together

    Game was boring

    We tried to play this with multiple groups of family and friends. Age groups of teens, younger adults through older adults. Everyone found the game boring, we just couldn’t get into it. I returned the game.
