Toys and Games Reviews of Catch Phrase!
Customer Review: Best game ever!
Summary: 5 Stars
Family game night is a long-running tradition in my family, but sometimes it's hard to find something everyone can play and that everyone will like. Catch Phrase is the perfect choice! My children are college-aged now and out on their own, but even now, when they come over and bring their friends for dinner, they have already prepared their guests that after dinner is "Catch Phrase" time. No coaxing necessary. We even have a "Hall of Fame/Shame" for the funniest clues/answers/mis-reads. We've played it so much, we've gone through all the cards. Would be great if Parker Brothers sold sets with new words and phrases.
We've introduced the game to so many friends and relatives, I'm sure we're responsible for numerous households purchasing the game. However, I will say, the traditional version is more difficult to find in stores than the electronic version. Where we live, only Target carries the traditional game. Some of our friends and relatives could only find the electronic version & said they didn't like it as well. We have both versions and find we never play the electronic one -- it's just not the same for us -- maybe because we started off playing the traditional version?? Guess it's just personal preference.
Oh, and by the way, at the high school where I teach, I introduced the game to some of our academic coaches and teachers, who LOVED it. We are in the process of adapting it to use in the classroom. We have mostly struggling readers, and this game really forces them to be verbal and to think about the meanings and context of a wide array of words and phrases. And the random timer evens the playing field for the weaker players. Trying to find or create a card template to work with so we can customize the game for various content areas (science, American History, etc.).
Description of Catch Phrase!
In this lightning-fast game of words and phrases, give as many clues as you can until someone on your team yells the word or phrase you want to hear. Gesture as much as you want, say anything you want. If the buzzer goes off while you're holding the disk, the other team gets the point! Catch Phrase requires two AAA batteries, which are not included.Toys and Games
