Facade Games Trophies

Arrived quickly. Love the game

This is my new favorite game, and I'm very picky about my board games. I like it because it requires skill in the form of logic, it fosters and rewards creativity, it can result in lots of laughter, people connect while playing it, and it is fast-paced enough to hold everyone's attention. It is also very easy to learn. Here is a detailed comparison of this game to two other games with similar elements: - Apples to Apples. Many people like Apples to Apples, but I find that it is too slow paced, your creativity is limited to the cards in your hand, and there is far too much subjectivity (for instance, some people are just looking for the most bizarre answer and some people are looking for the most serious answer). In contrast, Trophies is fast-paced, your creativity is endless because you are coming up with all the answers off the top of your head, and the subjectivity is within reason (sometimes people will choose an answer that barely meets the criteria because it was hilarious, but generally people respond similarly to answers). - Balderdash. This has been my family's favorite game for a long time because it requires huge amounts of creativity, results in many inside jokes, and has just enough competition to be fun without people feeling hurt about losing. Think of Trophies like a faster-paced version of Balderdash. Lots of laughter, new inside jokes, and just enough competition. Overall, I'd highly recommend this game.

Works for all ages. Fun, quick portable game (in a robust tin). Essential for any game collection.

This game is the absolutely perfect party game. It takes 20 seconds to explain. There's no setup, no fuss (no paper or pencils or timers or score sheets). You can play with a large group. It's like Scattegories but more interactive and more fast paced. Everyone has to shout out a word starting with the letter that matches the topic read out loud. It's simple but so fun and got lots of laughs from a group of 8 after Christmas dinner. It also has a smart way of reading the topics from a different card than the one with the letter on it so it'll be different every time you play. Get this game!

Fun simple game; good for parties; better with 5 to 6 players. We play this game at home with our kids and always have a good laugh. But that means only playing with 4 players and this is the type of game that is better when played with a larger group.
