Finally available in a UK edition, this Mensa Award winning game will have you in fits of laughter. So much so, that you probably won't care who wins.
Don't just take our word for it though, there are some great reviews to read, details of more awards that Times's Up! has won, and a whole lot of other stuff - all on this site.
The idea of Time's Up! is to race through the randomly selected 40 cards in your Deck of Fame, describing the person on the card, and getting your teammates to shout out loud who they think it is. You only get 30 seconds per turn to get as many right as you can, then the Deck gets passed on to the next team. You'll feel the tension mounting, as the sand is draining quickly and you’re struggling to get your team to identify the name on the card.
Can you describe John Cleese? Groucho Marx? Tot up the scores, it's time for round Two. Can you use the same Deck of Fame, but describe the famous using just one word? Great, but now it’s round three... BE John Cleese...
Who knows who you could have to describe...there are celebrity chefs, historical figures, sports stars...even cartoon characters.
Time's Up! is a fast, furious and seriously funny PARTY GAME for four or more players aged 12 +. The more people you have, the more fun it gets. The game is played over three rounds, and the team with the highest score is the winner.
Priced at £19.95, there are only 864 copies available from the first batch - that's one per famous person in the box! Ask for it in your local games emporium, or order your copy online from Coiledspring Games.
