Hasbro Gaming Express Yourself Game

Description

Fans of Pictionary Cranium Rigamarole and the like will love this hilarious and challenging variation on the classic Charades theme. Cluegivers "express" themselves by speaking acting or drawing clues to selected words while Guessers try to guess the word within 10 seconds. Tiny occasionally wishy-washy talking hosts direct the activity from within the electronic game (well okay they're not really inside the game but that's where the voices come from!). Teams of two are set up randomly and change constantly throughout the game as does the clue-giving method. After each player "signs in" to the game by selecting a chip and responding to the hosts' query a Cluegiver is selected by the hosts. This player selects a card and lowers it into a slot in the game unit. The hosts pull the card into the game "read" the word then send the card back out telling the Cluegiver how (and to whom) to give clues. Beyond this fun electronic twist the action proceeds more or less along the same lines as the above games. You can't really go wrong with this formula though can you (Three AA batteries required--not included. For three to six players.) --Emilie Coulter
