Description

Between weird prompts and your friends’ absurd things and answers, That Escalated Quickly Game might be our funniest game yet. First, read out a simple question (ex., I’m locked in a tiny room. What else is locked in here with me from cutest to scariest?). Then everyone is assigned a secret number from one to ten. Next, each player gives an answer to the question, and the intensity of that answer is based on their secret number (ex. 1 = a bunny, 10 = a grizzly bear with chainsaw arms). Finally, the person who read the question has to quickly review, try and number cards into the correct order. If they get it right, everyone wins.

    It was difficult

    The game was hard and different to play because it take a long time to understand it. I won't play it again. I will recommend this game for players 8+.

    Lots of Fun

    I enjoyed seeing the order of answers . It was funny. Not for young children as it is difficult. I would recommend this game for people the same age as you.

    The more, the sillier

    This game only gets better when played with a bigger handful of friends! It’s best when the group knows one another pretty well, so the answers are even more hilariously tailored to those playing.

    Just good fun

    This game can work for multiple audiences, like family or friends, since it relies on individual creativity. I've been playing this with my family and we like each other more than when we try to play monopoly.

    Best New Game This Season

    This has been our teens favorite new game this season! They are eager and asking US parents to play with them. It's easy to teach, quick to play, and a fun way to get to know their friends even better.

    Inaccurately Advertised

    Could be a fun game, I don’t know. Really only a game for 4 or more players. For 2-3 to play the game they have to pretend to be multiple players.

    Great quick game!

    We play-tested this game with 5 people, 3 adults and 2 teenagers. I was initially worried about the level of spontaneity and improv required, but it was not an issue at all. The questions are fun and the whole group got really creative immediately. We were laughing out loud pretty continuously throughout the several rounds that we played. We had at least one card that was really tricky to rank, but we were able to successfully rank the majority of the cards every time. This game is really fun, and very easy to play a couple quick rounds!

    Find out who your friends and family really are...

    I never knew that Fred thought about blue whales covered in thumbtacks, let alone blue whales covered in thumbtacks exploding out of a parachute pack!

    Get to know EVERYONE

    It was one of the easiest games to teach/learn/play ever. The cooperative nature of the game made people who didn't normally like to play for long REALLY enjoy playing with us. I loved listening to the wild and weird answers that were given, and learn that what a 5 is to me is a 9 to someone else. All in all, great game, good for close friends, ice breaker groups, and large age gaps. Will totally add to our travel bag to play more often.

    Even my Mom could play!

    Every week a motley group gets together for Souper Tuesday (because we have soup and we are super and it's on a Tuesday). I finally got a chance to bust out this game and play it - It was great! Fairly easy set up - a fairly quick start and even though we had a wide range of ages, humor, and game-playing experience - by round 3 we were really having fun. It took us a few rounds to get the hang of it, but it's worth it. A little clunky to word the Least to Best scale each time, but not terrible to figure out. It's great for all kinds of people to be able to play - we have a range of over the top show monkeys to pretty quiet folks and we were all able to collaborate and have a great time.
