5 Stars Very fun!
We got this gift for Christmas for some friends, and it was very fun! We played it with only 3 people, which was pretty easy for the guesser, so you really do need more than 4 to play. I would highly recommend it!
5 Stars favorite game to date
We play games from time to time with our adult children and friends. Loaded questions is very easy to understand for the first time player and really fun to learn more about the people you are spending time with. Excellent game. We baught one for everyone on our christmas list this year.
5 Stars Such a fun game!!
Just bought this game recently and have only had the opportunity to play it twice – once “for real” and once with just the questions. Both times we had a blast!!
The first time I opened it, before we ever got around to pulling the board out, my sister’s boyfriend and I started posing questions to each other and before we knew it, my mom and sister had joined it. We spent the next two hours going through the questions on their own and had SO MUCH FUN!
Then, a couple days later, I played it the “real way” with my best friend and his wife. It’s a great game as it’s meant to be played. My only complaint is that we knew all each other too well and with only two other players to choose from, it was a bit easy. I could imagine this being best for groups of four or more, particularly if you don’t know everyone in your group that well.
I highly recommend this game for anyone who wants to have fun with friends and learn a few really interesting and funny things about them! Great game and great price!!
5 Stars A wonderful discovery, as fun as Balderdash, but more personal – a great family game or ice breaker!
This, along with Beyond Balderdash have become our favorite game for family get-togethers for times like New Years Eve and other family gatherings. It’s also become a favorite at family reunions, etc.
In this game players are asked questions, e.g., “What is your favorite thing to buy at a convenience store?”, or “Write down one thing you hope you’ll never need.” All players then write down their honest answers, and the person whose turn it is earns points as they make correct matches between players and their answers.
If you think about it for a minute you’ll see how this game can work well for people that know each other well, as well as for people that have just met.
One thing that we learned the hard way about this game is that it can REALLY drag if you try to play it with too many players. We tried to play it with as many as 12 players at a family reunion, and that was a mistake! It took forever to play, since it was so long between a player’s turns. If, on the other hand, you play with fewer than 8 players the game moves along quite nicely.
The game rules suggest that this is a game best suited for teens and up, but we found that if you are willing to pick and choose questions even younger players can join in. Our 9-yr-old, for example, does quite well. The main requirement for players is that they need to be able to read and write well enough to be full participants.
This is a fun game for many settings – parties, family gatherings, etc.
5 stars…just make sure you don’t play it too many times with too many people at a time in too short a time period 
Game on!
5 Stars Great Fun for Girl’s Game Night
Loaded Questions
My friends and I started playing this game every Saturday night about 3 years ago. Basically, you pick a card that has 4 questions on it. One person guesses who said what. Then it goes to the next player, etc.
This is a laugh-out-loud game. A good sample question is “If the devil lived next door, what would his name be?” Our answers ranged from Beelzebub to Stan (from the person who thought the devil would try to blend in.) We make up our own rules. We don’t do the “reversals”, we allow picking cards till we get one we like, we don’t stick to matching a colored square to the same color on the card, and so on.
I am buying the adult version and think this will be a good fit for the girl’s night. At our family holidays, though, we play the regular Loaded Questions.
I rated it high for educational, and my reasoning is that I’ve learned a lot about my friends and family. It won’t teach you to count and it’s nothing like Trivial Pursuit or other games that require you to think. That makes it perfect for us.
This game has no right answers, no timers, no buzzers, and the only thing required is that you have an opinion. It’s fun and relaxing.
