Toys and Games Reviews of Balderdash GameCustomer Review: 2nd generation Balderdash Summary: 4 Stars
I owned the original Balderdash game many years ago and loved it. I recently ordered the game on the internet and we played it the other day for the first time. This game is a variation in that it has 5 categories where the original only had unusual words. Quite honestly, I enjoyed the original much better than this newer version and we only played the game using the first category (unusual words) rather than all 5. The other 2 players were new to the game and really enjoyed it.
Customer Review: Hard to find, easy to love Summary: 5 Stars
I played this game at a friend's house and have been looking for it ever since. Its based on what I know as "Dictionary", in which a word whose definition is unlikely to be known by anyone is put into action, and the players all make up a definition. The player whose definition is most convincing to the others wins the hand. Its very imaginative and fun. There is actually a word ( I can't remember it now) whose definition is "a delirious twitching of the bed clothes."
Customer Review: it's a winner Summary: 5 Stars
The game is not a new one, but almost as classic as Monopoly. It's a great party game that tends to get even more interesting as the night goes on, especially if there are a few drinks involved. Although the younger set may not enjoy it being more familiar with video games, it does have a good subliminal educational attribute without players being aware that the actual answers to the bluffs they write will stick in their minds for a long time.
Customer Review: Balderdash Summary: 5 Stars
Balderdash is a riot! It keeps my family in stitches! My entire family is so full of bull we play this easily. Playing Balderdash is a family tradition after Thanksgiving & Christmas dinners and everything in-between. Anytime there is a family gathering the Balderdash game comes out! My grown sons and their wives are full of bull, the grandkids are now joining in, but, it's tough to out bull the mother of bulls! Gotta Love It! Jane
Customer Review: Creative and Funny Summary: 5 Stars
Balderdash is hilarious and a good work-out for your brain. We laughed hysterically. The key is to bluff people into selecting your answers, while you try and select the correct answer.
Now, not one person got a single answer right. I think that's a good thing. It's a testament to how obscure these questions are.
Let's face it, though, the game is only as good as the group that's playing it.
