I had never heard of it before. I ordered it because I basically ordered the top 12 most popular games that appeared to be family friendly. It has been a few years since I purchased this and I can report it has gotten the most use out of the whole lot. I believe it's been such a big hit for the following reasons:
- its easy enough for little kids to play & really enjoy (if they can read, they're old enough to play without a helper)
- its fun for adults to play if there are little kids playing or hilarious old people playing
- its good for families that don't see one another a lot because it involves a degree of making personality inferences when you're playing to win
- every turn involves all the players so nobody has time to mess with their smart phone or iPad or whatever - its like actually engaging family time
- it goes by pretty quickly. It's nothing like the time it takes to play monopoly or trivial pursuit and the like. If everybody is having fun then you just play another game but if you're nearing dinner time or whatever the game can wrap up pretty quickly.
- I don't think it matters how many people play, it's basically just a card game. 2 players wouldn't work but we've had 8 or 10 playing lots of times
- the content is clean, there's nothing vulgar, nothing controversial
So, if you ever have company I would for sure keep this game on hand. You can't go wrong.
Essentially you are trying to find the word (or phrase)in your hand that best matches the word or phrase on the played card. The person who gets to judge the phrases or words suitability rotates through the players. You play five rounds and then the person who has had the most winning plays wins.
Part of what makes this fun is the table banter, getting to know the other players through the words and phrases they pick to play or pick to win each round. The other part of what makes this fun are the crazy little phrases or quotes on each of the cards.
So, an example might be this- the main card played that everyone has to match might be Rotten. At this point player one will pull one card from his hadn that matches this word. It might be Cruella DeVille. Player two might play the word apples. Another player might play traffic. The judge then reads everything and picks the word he thinks best matches Rotten.
This set comes with many cards. We have been playing off and on for over a year and haven't opened all of the cards. We have a family of five and play this once a week almost every week. So the party box while good for a big party will also provide you with years of fun as a family.
Well worth the money. Enjoy.
The "game players" in our family enjoy fast thinking, fast acting games like Cranium, Taboo, Scattergories, and various card games. The non-game players hate these kind of games, and so generally avoid playing any games. But this game has no time pressure, and is a great equalizer of players: everyone takes a turn as judge and each person's individual approach to decision-making is "right" when it is his or her turn to judge.
The "rules" take less than 2 minutes to explain and are easily grasped, even by those with mild cognitive impairments. (A player must be able to read, but there is no benefit to speed. A "quick thinker" has no advantage over a plodding or deeper thinker in this game.) Note also that with minor adaptions, it could be played by those with hearing impairments.
The game is low-key enough for a group that doesn't know each other well, and it can be played by people of different generations (although there are a few names of famous individuals that tweens and teens may not know). It is family-friendly, and would be appropriate to play with your pastor present.
A very high recommendation from our family (players ages 18-72).

Really good for practising good argument if skills and thinking on ones feet to convince the players your interpretation is the best.
New family favourite!
Pros:
The quality of cards is great. There are plenty of cards to be used. The replayability of this game is excellent. You gonna have more fun if you are with 6-8 players.
Cons:
The box of this game was torn a bit(very little). I still kept it in my collection as it wasn't that much visible.
This version has more recent pop culture references (ex. Big Bang Theory) and the "Party Box" aspect is true - way more cards!
Definitely worth the small investment if you like to entertain or want something fun to bring along to a get together rather than a cheese plate.
