Riley T. ★★★★★

The one-syllable rule is way harder than it sounds, and watching my dad panic trying to describe "volcano" without using a single two-syllable word had us all in tears. Great way to get everyone off their phones for an hour.

Hazel ★★★★★

Bought this for a family game night and my kids were in tears laughing watching the adults struggle to give clues using only one-syllable words. The Martian-versus-Human setup flips the usual guessing game dynamic, so nobody has an unfair advantage. We've played it four times in two weeks.

Samuel L. ★★★★★

My seven-year-old was in charge of being a Martian first and the rule about only using single-syllable clues had us all stumped in the best way. It’s one of those rare games where the grown-ups actually struggle just as much as the kids, and the round flew by.
