Review - Wits and Wagers Family Game

TOS Crew Review



Product - Wits and Wagers Family Game

Publisher - North Star Games

Price - Retiails for $19.99


About -

1. There are 150 trivia question cards.
2. Each player Choose a Meeple (this is a colored game piece).
3. Each player gets a dry erase answer board with pen.

I played this with Amy (15) and John (13). . . Actually, they played without me first and learned how the game works. Then they taught me how to play. (It is faster that way. - smiles)   I found many of the questions to be impossible. But the children seemed to know a lot of the answers. Here is a sample question: "At how many degrees Fahrenheit does water boil?"  or how about this question: "In feet, how tall is the Eiffel Tower?"

Basically, after a question is read, each player writes down their guess on their answer board. (I chose a pink answer board with matching pink Meeple. But there are other colors like blue, yellow and green. I thought I'd mention this since it is very important. -smiles).

Anyway, we had fun finding out the answers and seeing who came up with the closest answer. (It was never me.)

This is a fun family game and will keep everyone occupied. You might even learn something.
