Big Potato The Chameleon, Award-Winning Board Game for Families & Friends | Includes 80 Extra Secret Words

This game is so so fun. Easy to play. Our family is loving playing this since we got it. We have been playing with 4 of us, mom, dad, 14.5 yr old and 11.5 yr old. Look up a you tube video on how to play if you need to so maybe the rest of my review make better sense.Some of the cards like “authors” my kids have a harder time with.. for example they don’t know who Jane Austen is.. or most of the others on that card, maybe 3 of them, but most of the cards have plenty of things they do know. One of the cards subjects is tv shows and sex and the city is listed and my 14 yr old thought it very inappropriate- (it made me laugh) he doesn’t know what the show is or about, so we just took that card out LOL. I bought this game bc my 14 yr old asked me too. He had heard it was a lot of fun. And now I can’t wait to take it to our next grown up game night with friends!!! It would be more fun with more people, but is still fun with 4 of us. The only problem I think is with more people you’d have to have more room which would mean sitting further away from the subject card and the card is kinda small, like 4x6 ish.I would recommend to anyone who like fun games, make you laugh, easy to understand.I wish it came with more cards. Probably there is an expansion pack but I haven’t looked yet

I needed an easy, quick game that I could play with my middle and high school youth groups on retreats and whatnot. I looked through a million games, including this one, but just couldn't find any I liked. Then, at Christmas, my brother's girlfriend brought it over. We played a single round and I was sold. I knew the middle schoolers would love it. We continued to play for a solid hour and a half. Most of us are around college age, but we also had my parents and my younger brother, who's in high school. Finding a game that the elder siblings like is not very hard. Finding a game that the elder siblings can play with parents is a little more difficult. Finding a game that the elder siblings, parents, and younger siblings can play is hard. Finding a game that all of the aforementioned family members truly enjoy is impossible-- until we found Chameleon. So I purchased it. I brought it to an adult game night that I host, figuring we may do a round or two. These game nights are about four hours long. We played this for three of those four hours. As it turns out, middle schoolers are the WORST to play this game with. They don't really understand how to be specific without giving the answer away, they're terrible at guessing who the Chameleon is, they don't even recognize 98% of the words on the cards, they get frustrated when they are the Chameleon, and they get frustrated when they're NOT the Chameleon. And yet, on our retreat, they asked for it over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over. They preferred to play this game over their previous favorites. They spent so long playing this goofy game. God bless whomever invented this game. You nailed it.

The game was smaller than I expected and requires more than 2 people, but still a fun game for a group activity. Just make sure your party goers don't have an eye color disorder-which would be an unfair disadvantage for them- and you all will have fun.

Fun and easy

I got the smaller version of this game that included 96 extra words, and I really liked it! I have to say it’s definitely best to play with a bigger group of people, when there’s only three or four players it gets boring and too easy. Definitely the more the merrier, it’s loads of fun. Super easy to learn, I’ve taught a bunch of people how to play it and they pick it up super fast. Definitely a hit at game parties. For me who LOVES to play bored games I’d say it’s a 8/10. I personally would prefer that they make better categories. Most of them are great, but there’s a few I don’t like - “movies” “tv shows” “sports stars” “Madame Tussauds” “Bands”- because I didn’t even know half of these. They totally could have come up with some really great categories that everyone would know.

Great family game.

Great game for game night and everyone loves it.
