    Very good game

    We bought this as a christmas gift for our younger children (11, 14 and 17 years) and over the holidays played it with them along with our older daughter (27) and her husband. What a riot! The game itself can require some concentration as there don't seem to be many "really easy" questions, which my wife and I were happy about, the real bonus is that it was just such a lot of fun for everyone that the kids wanted to play after dinner the following evening and again the evening after that. Even the youngest chipped in with answers and contributions when the "elders" were stumped at points!

    Highly recommend this one.

    Great Game

    Bought this for our son who is a history teacher, and we all enjoyed playing it. He will use it in his classroom, but it does have other catagories of historical figures, i.e. artists, business people, politicians. So, fun for all!

    Great Party Game!

    This game was so much fun!! We played as a group, and mostly just took turns reading the cards to see who could figure out the names. It was interesting to see who we knew and who we didn't, and to learn new and interesting facts about some well known people.
