03-06-2025I was so excited for this game, I read what it was about and had to have it. The first round is kind of fun. But its a knock off of other games already. The second round is almost impossible with only getting to use one word for some really ridiculous cards like one million monkeys or Carl Sagan (who?!?!) let alone act them out. Two friends an I played and after we each tried a round we called it quits. Definitely a waste of money. They could have chosen much better cards to make it more enjoyable but whatever

> 3 dayCelebrity (and the also published version Times Up) has long been my favorite party game. Boiled down, it starts with Taboo and turns into Charades, ending up being wildly more fun than either. I have never had a session of any of these games that didnt have common bouts of uncontrollable laughter from all of those playing.

> 3 daythis is a fantastic game! doesnt work as well with only a few people, but is fabulous for a group session. the replay-ability is endless and the illustrations are hilarious. game mechanics are easy to learn and explain to others...even if theyre drunk. i would definitely add this to your game collection!

> 3 dayPerfect game: easy to learn, plenty of repeatability, and lots of fun. Im not usually into charades all that much, but because this was partly a short-term-memory game, it didnt require as much acting as charades typically does. Our family ages 20-57 all had a blast playing it. I think its overtaken Telestrations as my favorite group game.

Greater than one weekAfter an enthusiastic review of Monikers on Shut Up and Sit Down, I knew I had to have this game. Its essentially Charades/Celebrities, but vastly improved, and with updated characters. The game has hundreds of cards, and each has a lovely little description of a character to help you in the first round. They range anywhere from Nyancat to Nobody to Tom Sellecks Moustache, in a hilarious reference filled romp through popular culture.

> 3 daySuch a fun game! We have played this up at our ski house and stayed up way too late laughing and having a great time. The names and illustrations are amazing! Great for groups and even better for getting to know new friends!!!

> 3 dayIf you are on the fence about this game BUY IT! My family of 5 loves this and it comes out every time company comes over so we can convert them too. It can be a bit inappropriate so Id recommend it for 15 and up.
