A fun game for a group of people at a party- drinking could be fun with it, but can play without
This game was fun for even two people- as my husband and I tried it out for the first time together, on our game night- before we tried it out with a group of people. Of course, you want to see how a game goes- before- to gauge how others you know will play- and how much fun they will have (or how much fun they will have depending on if they will understand it or not). The last time I played a complicated game with friends who didn't understand complicated, it was not that fun- so my husband and I like to try out all our games- just the two of us playing- before we introduce them to friends- to see if they are going to have fun or not (knowing the friends we play games with).To play the game you shuffle the letter cards (with skip and other special cards inside). Then you put out the four category cards- Wisdom & Wit, Steamy Station, After Dark, and Pop Culture into four different piles. To begin each player gets three of the letter cards and then rolls the dice (which is pretty cool as it is wooden and shows the four category colors- or all the colors which means the roller picks the category).For instance, if a player rolls the black color, you get an After Dark card. One of the After Dark category cards we got when we played- was- the Occasions that calls for a Night Out. All the players look at the three- letter cards- and have to think and say an occasion that calls for a night out that begins with the letter card you have in your hand. It can be one of any letters, or your card can say you can use a vowel, or letters U-Z- so on and so forth.You can even use a skip card (if you have one in your hand, of the three letter cards which you hold), which means a new category is selected by the person who lays down the card. We chose to use those when the topic matter wouldn't match an answer that would begin with a letter in our hand- so we would switch the topic category card in hopes an answer to what was on the card would match the letter card (or cards) we held in our hand.The timer in the game is pretty cool- you can set it up to sixty seconds, which is how much time you get to answer the category card you pick- with the three-letter cards in your hand. It is easy to use the timer with this game- and my husband and I will probably use it for other games- where the timers we had were lost or don't work as well as this game's timer does. Also, it was so easy to set that I had no issues doing it quickly to keep the game moving smoothly. Plus, like I said, the dice included are pretty unique- as it is wooden and only shows the color categories that you can pick from.Please check out my photos of the contents of the game and if you have any questions- feel free to reach out and ask them.Thank you

Cute Game Addition
I went through a board game collecting phase. This was a nice addition and fun to play with friends.

Fun!!!
Fast-paced fun for everyone! I brought this on a family vacation for those down moments in the evenings where we all wanted to relax but weren't ready to go to bed. Very easy to play and so fun! Although the box does say 2+ players, I definitely think the game becomes infinitely more fun with more people (adults not really kid appropriate). This would make a great addition to adult game night!

Fun game for adults but can be played if you remove some cards
It's a fun game that you can pick up and learn in minutes. The instruction sheet lays it out in just a few bullet points and it's super easy to set up and play. We had a lot of laughs playing this.The game is rated 17+, and that's definitely true, but I think you could play this with kids if you remove the red cards (which are the sex cards). The other categories are about Pop Culture, Wits and Wisdom (basically like trivia), and After Dark (adult activities not related to sex, like going to bars and karaoke). I'm not good at thinking fast so I don't do so well in this game, but it was still fun for me. It was really fun for my wife because she wins all the time.The only thing we didn't like is how loud the timer is, but you could always use a phone timer or something else instead.

Fun for everybody.
I love games, but sometimes I have a tendency to modify the rules in ways that make them more fun or engaging for me or the people I play with. ONE HOT MINUTE - 60 SECONDS OF PANDEMONIUM FOR ADULTS is a very fun game that has a lot in common with the popular game Scattegories. In ONE HOT Minute, you have four categories and hold a hand of three cards, which are either a letter card or a special card. The object is to get rid of all of your cards. The category cards are usually situational; for example, "people you shouldn't call when you're drunk." If you had a "B,” you might say boss and discard your B card. If you had an “L” card, you might say “landlord”. The way the game is played, all players are shouting and discarding at once, which is where the pandemonium comes in, and in my opinion, the game breaks down. I think it is a better played game if each player starts out with a set number of cards, say seven, instead of three. Then the players play in turn and use the special cards to make the game more interesting. I think the resulting game is more challenging, more fair, and more fun when the players take turns. Although there is definitely less pandemonium, which I didn't miss one bit.I like the cards, I like the categories, and I like the included timer. With a slight alteration of the rules, this is easily a five star game. It's fast, fun, and appropriate for all ages.

A fun addition to our other card games similar to this...
We have always enjoyed playing these sorts of card games, and each has their own spin on them. This one is very easy to play, is fun, and as others have stated, can be more age friendly if a few cards are removed from the deck. Otherwise, this is a fun way to begin an evening of laughs, and that's always fun, especially if you have a few people over who don't know one another well. We have enjoyed this game so far, and would recommend it. A good price for a fun night in.

Fun game
We finally got round to trying this game out and it's a lot of fun! you do have to be quick off the mark and it keeps you on your toes. Not the right game for a quiet after dinner rest, but loads of fun with a more energetic crowd :)

Worth it after the recent price drop
Since the recent price drop from £19.99 to £12.99 I can recommend this game as it includes a timer apart from cards, etc so it is now priced appropriately, before it was too much for a basic game in my opinion.It’s similar to the 60 seconds game but here you have cards with letters that are different for each player to form answers from, it’s funny, competetive and a little stressful too if you don’t like time limits!
