Customer Reviews

Don't put too much stock in the negative reviewsI almost didn't buy this game because of the negative reviews, but I'm glad I did. This was a Christmas gift for my mother, who loves trivia, and the family played it a few times Christmas night. Could we answer all the questions? No, but had we been able to I think we would have been disappointed. I have to wonder if those who didn't like the game were individuals who are used to playing games like Trivial Pursuit and getting the majority of the questions correct, and therefore were disappointed when they couldn't do so with Wit's End.The board is not confusing, as stated in other reviews. With each roll of the die you can move in one of two directions, landing on either a question type or roll again. As long as you answer correctly, you continue your turn. These are pretty basic concepts for this type of game. Rather than collecting pieces of pie, you advance inward on the board, trying to get to the center, by answering a question correctly after you land on one of the squares where two levels connect. The questions are challenging yeah, in some cases VERY challenging but even when you get the answer wrong you feel like you've learned something, whereas with other games you either know (or care) about the topic or don't.After each player made an attempt at his or her question, we'd then allow everyone else at the table to take a stab at it, just to see if any of us would have gotten it correct. The different questions on each card are not categories or subjects (e.g. entertainment, history, sports), but instead are different formats of questions, with the subjects being totally random. "Teasers" are fun rhyming riddles, "Odd1Out" and "Sequence" require you to select the one answer of the four that doesn't belong or put three items in order, respectively. "Wildcards" can be of any format, but we found the vast majority of the questions we had were to decide whether each of two unrelated statements is true or false. In fact, if I were to have one criticism of Wit's End it would be that there wasn't enough variety in the "Wildcard" space, but that could have been the luck of the draw or our perception rather than an actual problem with the game.If you're looking to show off how brilliant you are at trivia, Wit's End may bruise your ego a bit. If you like a challenge, though, and have others of a similar mind to play against, this game can be a lot of fun. 4Finally, a degree of difficulty in a board game.I love board games, but I often find the Trivia style board games to be lacking in difficulty. They usually fall short. I bought this game for my parents so that they would have another game to choose from other than pictionary, during family gatherings. I purchased this game through Amazon and began to play. the rules are simple enough to read once and set them aside. the questions however range from moderate to extremely difficult (IMHO). i especially liked the category of "Teasers" where you are given a clever riddle, and must come up with the answer (we allowed 20-30 seconds) for the player to answer before turning the card over. The Teaser questions were most entertaining because it would seem simple to one person and yet difficult to the others and its not always the same people who know the answer. So, it kept the game entertaining and it last for quite awhile. needless to say, none of us were ready for the style, type, or difficulty of questions so after we adjusted, the only thing left was the questions themselves. it made for an interesting evening and i would recomend this product for people who like to be challenged while playing board games. 5... 5 star review by saying that two of us like this game and two hate it but I really ...I suppose I should qualify my 5 star review by saying that two of us like this game and two hate it but I really like it A LOT. It is kind of like Trivial Pursuit, but there are different types of questions, which use different types of knowledge/intelligence to figure out--it's not just about knowing facts (though that's the biggest part of it). I cannot figure out why the others don't like it and they haven't been able to articulate what they find objectionable about this game. I think it is really fun. 5Great gameFirst of all, if your age is higher than your IQ, this game is not for you. I can definitely say this is the most challenging board game I've ever played, but that's what makes it great. I bought this as a gift for my brother for Christmas, and I was itching to try it out and we played with the whole family(minus the kids because there's no way kids would be able to answer these questions). It makes you think so hard sometimes that it makes you feel like you're an idiot, especially if you have to answer one of the riddles and can't seem to figure it out. That's when the answer is something so simple, but you over think it. Overall it's a great game that gets the neurons firing and is an awesome game if you want to prove you're smarter than your friends or family! 5My favorite trivia gameThis last summer I bought about 6 different popular trivia games and this is my personal favorite for several reasons.1) The questions are normally moderate in difficulty. Nothing extremely difficult or extremely easy.2) The questions have unique categories: "Teaser" which is like a riddle you have to solve, "Odd One Out" which is spotting the one that doesn't belong, "Sequence" - usually listing some events in chronological order, and "Wild Card" - which is usually something like True or False, or Fill in the Blank. Because of the different categories, the game doesn't get stale as fast and if you get bored with one category you can just avoid it.3) In most cases you have multiple choices between picking which category, because you can move left or right on the board.4) If you get the question right, you get to roll again.5) You must land on a space that allows you to move up a level. This sort of evens out the field because a player who gets 5 questions right can exceed a player who gets 10 questions right. Not necessarily "fair" but it adds a subtle element to the game other than just who gets more questions right. Some questions are difficult than others, so someone who gets more difficult questions may get less right, and still win.What some may not like about this game:The questions are a little more difficult than most trivia games. At least in my opinion. The "Sequence" and "Odd One Out" categories often refer to historical events. For example: "Which one of these events did not take place during Ronald Reagan's presidency?" -- and the one that doesn't may only be off by a year or two. So, if you don't know a whole lot about history it won't be for you. Younger people won't particularly get too many questions right. However, the Odd one Out and Sequence questions are multiple choice so you still have the odds of guessing the right answers. 5Fun New Take on TriviaWe love this game. For years I was trying to find updated versions of Trivial Pursuit, but they didn't seem to exist (now they do though). So I started looking for alternatives to Trivial Pursuit. I found Wits End and it is a neat new take on the Trivial Pursuit idea. Rather than simply answering trivia questions, Wits End poses the trivia questions to you in different ways (some are harder than others). Great game to play with the family or friends. 5Best trivia game!Our family loves trivia and this is by far our favorite trivia game! We have an engineer, a chemistry professor, a paleontologist and an art history grad student and all four of us enjoy playing. The questions range in difficulty and provide a challenge without being frustrating and obscure. I can't count how many game nights we've had with Wit's End and we still haven't run into the same questions. We enjoy it way more than Trivial Pursuit and other such games. We absolutely recommend it! 5Fun and simple triviaThis is a simple game, roll dice, move in whatever direction you want, try to get to the next tear by answering questions correctly. I assume it could get boring if you play it enough and know all the answers, but that's true of all trivia games. The game play is very easy, so, this game is really about the trivia. There are some very easy questions and some challenging ones, so it shouldn't be too difficult. The questions vary from sports, to music, to theater, to geography, to history and so on; so depending on what you're into, you have an advantage or disadvantage. It's fun if you like trivia and are at least somewhat intelligent. I could see people who aren't intelligent not enjoying the game because they can only get 20% of the questions right. 5this is not a fun nor an entertaining gamei read the reviews that this was a fun game with the questions and also the difficulty in ascending levels. This may have been a fluke but through 4 players turns one player was able to ascend to the top. This game was not as advertised and it gets very little use at game nights. If you like trivia type games I would go with "This, That and Everything." or "Smart-ass." both games are much more entertaining. 2New twist on the traditional trivia gameWe love this game! It offers a nice twist to the traditional Trivia Pursuit game. Even if you don't know the answers you still have a chance of guessing it. The questions don't make you feel like a fool for not knowing the answers. Also, it doesn't take all day to play. I gave this one as a gift but I might get one for my house. 5
