Things...
$30.00
Released January, 2002
The Pros:Lots of replayability - increased difficulty with larger numbers. Widespread appeal - just about everyone can be good at it. Aimed at adults, but good for all ages - a good family game.
The Cons:The game encourages players playing for laughs instead of points. Mileage may vary depending on the group playing the game. Can be slow - takes a while for each round to progress, especially with larger groups.
Things. is a family/party board game designed for 4 to 15 (5 or 6 recommended) players of any age, and is designed to last approximately 45 minutes. Each round features a reader who reads aloud a Topic Card, such as “Things… you can never find.

” All other players then write an answer, and then the reader reads them aloud twice. The player immediately to the reader’s left must then guess. Every correct answer means the person matched is eliminated, while the guesser gets to continue guessing. When she gets a guess wrong, the person to the left of her resumes the guessing. This continues until only one player remains. As for scoring, 1 point for each correct guess, and 6 points for the remaining player. The game continues until everyone has been a reader. Though some questions are a bit objectionable (“Things you shouldn't do when you're naked"), critics say the game is overall fairly friendly to everybody.
