Cheatwell Games Stories Game Pod Shaggy Dog Stories Game

For kids ( we had 4 year olds in the group) and worked perfect, and for grownups. Everyone loved it!

Good amount of ideas/categories and great case but cards could be thicker/stronger. Also cards are quite small like playing card size, would prefer bigger.

Fun for all ages

Great - lots of ideas

I bought this game last minute to teach by 6-8 year old Beaver Scouts a new action based game in time for their trip to the Panto (as Charades is a game of pantomimes). The case is well constructed and easy to use, and is small enough to be portable in a bag or pocket. There are lots of cards to go through so lasts a long time. It's good value for money.However, there's a big issue with this game - it doesn't include any of the classic instructions for Charade gestures; and it includes categories I wouldn't know what action to do for them like 'People & Characters'.e.g.Number of words in the title: Hold up the number of fingers.Correct guess: Point at your nose with one hand, while pointing at the person with your other hand.Book: Open your hands and pretend you are opening a book.Movie or Film: Pretend you are using an old movie camera, holding with one hand and winding with the other.etc.Instead, the players announce the category they're performing.I made up actions e.g.Video Game: Hold your hands like you're gripping a video game controller and twiddle your thumbsAnimal: Hold your two hands out as if they’re clawsPerson / Character: Place your hands on your hips and stand tallThere's no timer included, so you have to use your own or your phone etc.Unfortunately, a lot of the 'answers' were not current enough for my group of kids. Might be better for older children and adults.

Played this with grandchildren aged between 7 n 10 and their parents. It was great fun but very basic. Worth the money and gets everyone off their tablets.

Christmas present so waiting to use

Picked this for a birthday present & the child was pleased with it.
