It's pretty much clear on how the game will be: it includes the board games that you have come to know and love through the years. If you weren't a fan of Life or Clue or both...then obviously you won't be picking this up. With that on the side, I have found this game to be the best party game for myself and my friends/family. All games come with the option to play it regularly, the short (quick) version of the game, or a remix style with a few rule changes. Everything is true to its own board game version (or card game for Hands Down) except for Twister. It's only a mini-game-type-feel mode where you must remember a sequence of buttons and you have to nail them in order. The more successful notes you hit, the better chance of winning. Other than all of that, it's a great game and can easily give you tons of replay value. For trophy lovers as well, the trophies are very easy and I'd give the platinum difficulty a 3/10.Read full review
I would give this 5 stars on family time alone.... but the difference in the actual games will really throw you off, and to me that fact alone makes it a 4 star game. BUT.... we can't keep our kids (5(girl) + 7(boy) interested long enough to finish an actual board game. Maybe Operation, or Candyland, but even then, not all the time. They love this video game. All of 'em except Clue, but heck, I don't even get that one. The Yahtzee/Uno hybrid thing they have on here is good fun for mom and dad once the kids wanna stop playing. And it's a good team play game for them to learn basic math and learning skills. We will definitely be buying versions 1 and 2. They are available as a bundle now, and I gotta think it'd be worth the price. If you can get this one for around $30, grab it. Life alone is worth that. Our 5 year old loves to play through the whole game, and she's learning about money skills, loans, college, etc... As a parent I'd recommend it, as a long time gamer, It's a game for parents and kids, or an adult party that really needs the help.Read full review
I bought this product because I wanted to play more board games on my ps3 than monopoly and it was the perfect combination. I don't yahtzee. I just don't get how to play it really. However, I love all the other games. This product is awesome. It's not like most games, in a good way. Plus, it has 5 different games. All in all, It's wonderful and definitely lives up to it's name.
This is a game for all ages. Although I purchased this item for The Game of Life, I found other games on the same disc to be favourable. The game play for these particular games on the disc are self-explanatory, as well as informative. The choice is yours on which game you wish to play! Personally, I'm not too fond of twister.

Bought to play Mouse Trap and Life with my kids so I did not have to set up board games and have all the little pieces. They love it and it has made for great family time.
