Cranium Deluxe Edition Board Game (WOW)

This game is excellent fun. It combines elements of Pictionary, Charades, general knowledge, role-play, sculpture, everything. You do need at least 4 people and with larger teams it would be even better. It's quite exhausting because you are always up and jumping around and of course laughing out loud at everyone's attempts to carry out the tasks! It's great for Christmas gatherings because it's different than the same-old games. It could even rival the electronic games for fun and novelty. It's only really suitable for adults because you do need to have some knowledge of vocabulary and spelling etc. I love this game and so did everyone who played it in our family at Christmas. 10 out of 10.

There is only one downside to this game you need four players to play! I bought this for my daughter for Christmas as she had the junior cranium years ago and whilt she liked it it doesnt have the range of thsi game. You have four areas of cards to complete and work around the board throwing different colours on the dice. Word Worm which has alsorts of different word game, spelling backwards, guessing meanings, etc. There Star Performer, humming, charades and the fun one puppeting. There Data Head which is like questions and Creative cat, drawing with your eyes closed, modeling with clay, etc. It is great fun for all the family and even the people who are first didn't want to perform by the end of the game were very into it. You do need a bit of room to play it and at least 4 people. But it is very much fun for all ages.

This is a very clever game with something for everyone as long as they are over 12 ish. Anyone younger will not be able to manage some of the questions. We played with 4 adults, a 12 year old, a 14 and 17 year old and a labrador on Boxing Day. It was hilarious and everyone enjoyed it very much. Some board games make the children just that - bored but this one is so well paced it works very well. Take care though: 1. It really is not for children, too hard and they won't understand some of the things they have to do. Over 12's only and even they need to be pretty switched on 2. It needs 4 players MINIMUM - you can't actually play it with less. We enjoyed it and would recommend it to families with teenagers or young at heart 4 stars overall, not 5 stars as it needs 4 people to play which limits it to family get togethers for us as we are a family of 3

I can't see in the description of the product where it says for adults. It does say it on the box when it arrives. My 6 and 8 year old were disappointed, as was I. It's an ok game for adults, unless you want to describe what each sentence means to your kids they may not understand anything.

This is a great game for family and friends and for all type of people. The good at Maths will team up with the person who's good at drawing and the fun it'll be guaranteed! We have played all over Christmas and we've been playing with friends in different occasion. One only down side is the number of cards, once you've gone through all of them you start remembering the answers and it looses the fun side a bit. Otherwise great game!

We bought this copy of Cranium from the Amazon UK site. The first time we played it we were a bit baffled by some of the questions, and realised the questions were made for an American audience. At least half of the questions were aimed at Americans, and if you are British you will have no idea of the answers. We thought this was just how it was, however a few months later we were at a friend's house and played using their copy of Cranium, which had more British appropriate questions. This made us think Amazon sent us the wrong edition, by which point it was too late for a refund. So beware.

I bought this game as a christmas present to my family and we played it on christmas night. My aunty usually hates board games but she loved this one!! It's hilarious, best played in large groups. The tasks it gets you to perform are so original and there's something in there for everyone. Highly recommend if your looking for a game to get everyone playing and laughing. It also doesn't go on for too long although it will take up most of your night. It doens't necessarily require you to be good at trivia either as there is something there for everyone.

The rules are slightly weird in this edition, so we went back to the old rules from the (non WOW) edition. The characters in this edition have cute hats. Otherwise I'd stick with the older edition as there are more diverse Club Cranium questions in the old edition. In this one, they are all from just one category of question which is disappointing. Think some of the questions have been updated but many of them (especially those that went to our opponents of course) seemed easier. The addition of moving your partner into positions to guess the answer is a great one though, even though my partner did his best to dislocate my shoulder! Still a great game though.

Been looking for this game everywhere! So pleased to find it, and at such a great price. Arrived exactly as described. Thank you.

By far this is the most fun game we have ever played. Its easy to learn if you just read the instructions. It comes with fun quality game pieces- not just cheap plastic pieces at all! Regular board size game. Id say any age that can play charades can play this game. Probably better suited for older teens and adults. A couple categories may be difficult for younger kids (under 12 years old) but still playable if you want to include them. Our all time favorite game for sure

I have a family with multiple generations and a lot of different personalities and this is by far our favorite game. It has something for everyone: trivia, word puzzles, acting and art. The game is mostly appropriate for junior high-school aged kids and up as little ones don’t really know the material to answer the questions yet.
