    I backed this on Kickstarter for two copies. I think it’s a great game that encourages creative expression and out of the box thinking. My daughter first played it at age 6 and needed some coaching and support but loved it. Our family plays games pretty regularly and had no trouble with the rule book, though it dies require an adult go through things for a few minutes beforehand to make sure concepts and game goals can be explained clearly. I tried to rate this game on amazon after I’d first played it on Kickstarter but the system would not allow for that because there was no record of my purchase w Amazon. I was recently looking for a birthday present for a friend if my daughter ( 7yo), and was delighted it was still in stock at amazon. Bought it and am finally posting reactions now that amazon has me on record as having bought it.

    I like deduction games. I really liked this one. One player think up a rule to sort the picture cards into 2 groups, other players try to roughly deduce the rule. The rule may be (almost) any. Sounds cool! You are not bound by any limitations. But IMO the strength is also a weakness. The gameplay may be exciting and push the limits of imagination if the rule is non-trivial. But if the rule is not good thought out (too easy, too hard, too debatable) the game fall flat. And I cannot blame people in this case. The freedom just paralyzes and usually you come up with smth like is blue/can be held in hand.

    Fun game. A little weird, but fun.

    Fun is very limited based on subjectivity of the person playing the Visitor.

    Visitor is a great party game. It might take a little more explanation than something like Cards Against Humanity, but once the game is flowing, youll be playing multiple rounds. I broke this out at my apartment house warming, and I could not get it back in the box. As soon as one game ended, another set of people insisted on getting a round in. Its simple enough to pick up for kids, but complicated enough for adults to really enjoy.

    The rules took a while to figure out but it seemed like it had potential to be fun. The four of us tried to like it but gave up after several rounds. There are much better games out there. This is being donated after playing once.

    Visitor is a unique and engaging game that promotes creative thinking to come up with interesting relationships of everyday items. It’s only as complicated as you want it to be.

    This is a cute little game, but it feels a little unpolished. We have found several situations where interpretation of the cards matters enough to throw a wrench into things. Interpretation is part of the game, but if you think it’s a toy car, and someone else thinks it’s a full-size car, there will be pass rule problems. We have decided to keep a list of “house rule adjustments” that help with the game; communicating somehow “this is a toy car” for example. I don’t regret the purchase, just be prepared to polish the given rules and tweak them to your group’s needs.
