Hilarious game to play with my kindergartener at home just us, less fun at supervised visitation and he is 10 now but still a fun time for us to bond

I have meaning to post this for a week or so but have been ultra busy. I mentioned in January that I wanted to buy a game a month to build up our board game stockpile. I decided to alternate kids versus adult board games each month. January was Adult (Wits and Wagers) and February I bought the kids the new Headbandz game. They LOVED it. I LOVED it, even my husband LOVED it (which says alot).We tore open the box and in less than 5 minutes the instructions were read and the game was ready to be played. When it comes to something new in our household minimal set up is always a plus. The kids jumped in and got to playing and it was hilarious some of their guesses but it really worked their imagination and made them analyze the questions they were asking and the answers they were getting. I have to say it's more than just a game it does have some educational advantages. I sat down and played with my kids as did my husband and we really enjoyed it. I had to get back to housework but really was sad I couldn't play more. It has entertained the kids several times now in the past week and was definately worth the money. We will be taking this game on vacations as well as it's so easy to set up and bring along. Great for the houseboat vacations and hotel rooms alike when the day is over but the kids are not quite ready for bed. A definate must buy for kids 10 and under. Minimal if no adult supervision required but you will want to supervise if not play because the game is so fun.I already have my adults game picked out for March and can't wait to buy it. We have an upcoming vacation to Lake Powell the end of May (houseboat stay with 16 friends). These games are going to come in handy for evening fun.

Purchased this game as a Christmas present for my nephew. Finally had a chance to play it for the first time a few weeks ago. I was thinking it would be pretty easy for us adults playing a kids game, I was wrong. We played with 3 adults, a teenager, and a 6 year old. The 6 year old was able to do better than half the people! I think this speaks volumes to how good of a kids game this actually is. It can be equally challenging for everyone.The game play itself is a self guided question game. Everyone has a "hedbanz", which is just what they call their plastic headbands that are included with the game. Each player places a card on their respective hedbanz. Everyone can see your card, except you. Your card has an illustration in addition to the description of what it is. The game includes a card with sample questions, but my group of players found that most of those questions were useless on most of the cards. You begin the game with three playing chips in front of you and a timer. When the timer begins you ask yes or no questions about your card. If you guess your card correctly before the timer runs out you get to give up a playing chip and continue with a new card until the timer runs out. After that point play passes to the next player, while you keep the card that stumped you. You continue with this card until you guess it correctly. The first player to get rid of all three chips wins the game!The only reason I knocked off a star is due to the replay value. It seems there are about 50 cards that come with the came. If you play a round with 5 people those 50 cards do not go very far at all. With my group of 5 we went through approximately 10 cards during a session of this game. That means that after approximately 5 times playing this game you will begin to repeat cards. This will obviously hurt the replay value. Perhaps this is something that can be solved with an expansion at some point.

Purchased for my 10 year old niece for her birthday. Huge hit!! This is a really fun game for family to play together- wholesome and fast paced and will get even the introverts out of their shell.

How does it work?A headband on your head, holding a card with a picture that only the others can see.The person with the headband is to guess what's on the card.Why get it?Kids love it. This game is one of the first things my 8-year-old's friends pull out (and we have at least 40 board games) and want to play, every time they come over.Replay value?As other reviewers have pointed out, the replay value is limited due to a limited number of cards. That is if you play by the rules. There are so many ways to improvise with this game, and that includes adding different cards, making your own, attaching post-it notes to the cards.So if that's the case, why get it all?Because it makes you PLAY. We all have ideas about doing charades and 20-questions (Alexa makes us do that more often) but the beauty of this games is ITS SIMPLICITY. You pull it out. You get started in 2 minutes.It reminds you to PLAY.Anyone can play, and you can adjust for everyone's level. Great for learning how to think about sorting big amounts of data. Great for learning how to phrase questions. Great communication activity. Lots of laughters and fun.
