This game was very fun to play. It takes getting used to at first. My kids were frustrated because they kept using two syllable words by accident causing them to lose more points than they were able to gain. The only negative thing is that my husband realized you can win by not saying anything and just letting the other team make multiple mistakes. I would suggest a penalty for not trying to play a certain amount of words per turn.

Fun game; simple enjoyment

It seems so silly but it can be hard to limit to one syllable words - of course, everyone loves it when the club comes out! Lots of laughs and congenial kidding. So many games today involve so much strategy and one-up-man-ship that it was refreshing that this was just fun.

We got this game for my daughter's friend for his birthday. He loves games and we wanted something new to make sure he didn't have it yet. She said he was very excited to get it. Perfect price range for a middle schooler party gift. Fun for the whole family!

Bought this to play with family. Ages 14 to 72. We really enjoyed it but our brains hurt trying not to say a 2 syllable word. Or to guess the word. We laughed a lot

Gave this game as a gift for a family gift exchange. Was an immediate hit for adults and children ages 7 and 9. A fun way for my grandkids to think about how many syllables are in a word. Silly fun but you still have to think for all ages.

Silly competitive fun

Fun family game; brings out competitive streaks. Even pulled in non-players. More fun if you embrace the Neanderthal spirit. Needs expansion packs if you want to play several times.

Good fun for many ages!

I bought this for our vacation this year. We used it several times, and it was a lot of fun for a wide variety of ages. The blow-up club didn't last very long (not too surprising, but disappointing anyway.) We didn't abuse it or anything, and it lasted only a few hours before it sprung a leak.

Packaging could have been more substantial; I felt that this item was not protected in an open paper bag on my front porch.
