Libellud Dixit Exp 2, Quest US Version, MulticolorThe Forest Stewardship Council

Very imagative board game. Great for for both adults and children. Quality of set is very high. Love the colours and images as it makes you try to be creative when your turn to be the storyteller.

Dixit is an absolutely beautiful game from top to bottom, featuring a large deck of big cards, saturated with colour and charm. It's an easy game to learn, plays very quickly and manages to be non-confrontational whilst still remaining competitive. It can be played by 3 to 6 players, although I think it works best with 5 or 6.Each turn, one person will play a card face down in the middle of the table and reveal some sort of cryptic clue about it. Everyone else around the table then picks a card from their hand that best matches the same clue. Once everyone has played their cards face down, they are shuffled and revealed face up. Players will then vote on which card they think was the original and score based on whether they get it right, or if if they manage to mislead the other voters to pick their own card.This leads to some really interesting exchanges between players. The scoring system works in a way in which you want some people in the room to guess your clue right, but not everyone, meaning your clues have to not be too easy or too difficult, or target individuals in the room. Whilst this might sound like two people who know each other very well will give an unfair advantage, the amount of clues that I've seen backfire in hilarious fashion is much more than I would have imagined.For example: I was playing with my girlfriend and a few friends. I played a card with a man full of post-it notes and said the clue "The Fridge" (referring to the fridge in our flat that's covered with notes). Thinking this was fairly obvious for my girlfriend to get, whilst unlikely for anyone else to guess, somebody revealed a card that ruined my whole plan: A cat looking into a fish bowl. The way that someone had interpreted my clue and flipped it on it's head due to some imaginative thinking was incredible.. and it happens quite a lot in this game.This is again an easy recommendation from me. I play lots of different board games and this is a great social one that works well with any audience, even if they're not really into games. It plays quick, is easy to teach and is a really pretty package overall. Add it to your collection ASAP!

You've played Monopoly, Cluedo and Risk. You may have played Ticket to Ride, Settlers of Catan and Carcassonne. Each of these games are great in their own way and are great for families to play. The latter three games are the least divisive and have many different strategies available to win which make them games you want to play again and again.Dixit is a game unlike any of these games. In fact it is unlike any other game I have ever played before or since. Each time you play the game it becomes both easier and more difficult. It's a very subtle game that pulls on your creative thinking. Trying to work out what phrase (or mime etc.) for a particular picture will spark an equal response from some of your fellow players, but crucially not all, is what makes this game challenging. Too subtle and your friends miss the connection. Too obvious and you are penalised. Please do not to let this put you off. Dixit is a game that has intrigue in every round. Trying to guess the Storyteller's card is not straight forward. Each other player gives in a card that they think best represents the given phrase and they are shuffled before being revealed. With one card per player it can be difficult to distinguish the Storyteller's cards from the charlatans.The most recent time I played there were eight of us, aged between 28 and 60. There were only five takers for the game; the remaining three were seemingly more interested with their mobile phone or tablet devices and let the rest of us play. As soon as the cards were revealed in the first round they downed their electronics and were enthralled by the game. Each of them tried to guess at the Storyteller's card and even helped their partner during the game. Much like other reviewers have said, the scoring is not the most important aspect of this game. I have never once seen an argument playing this game, and I do not expect I will. I have even played with my family who cannot get through a game of Monopoly without at least two people storming off or the board being launched at the nearest wall.Should you buy this game? If you want a game that is relaxing yet though provoking, creative while lacking a need for strategic thought and a game without conflict then this is a great game to buy. There is no game like it so it will not be in direct competition with other titles you may have. The content in the box is more than enough to fully enjoy the game for a long time so there should be no need to add the expansions for a good while yet. I would stress that this is a game best played with either five or six players. A three player game does not have quite the same feel compared to a game with at least five players.I hope this review has been helpful. If you have any comments add them. If you have any questions about the game I am more than happy to answer them as best as I can.

I adore this game!

Amazing game, arrived intact and good value for money.

This game was extremely fun. After reading the simple instructions only once, it was easy to figure the game out, and was also very fun. Packaging was very well presented, and the cards dealt to everyone were also good. The only reason why it’s only 4-stars is that it needs something else. All the elements in the game are well thought out, presented & packaged. However, it gets a little boring after a while of rotating the storyteller. If there was some other thing, like missions or something, that would upgrade this review to 5-stars

Great game and fun for all the family.
