Advantages: Good gameplay, fun to play

Disadvantages: Dosn't quite live up to scene it

I recieved this game as a christmas present by a family member who knwos how much I enjoy playing board games.

I had never heard of this game before but from first inspections it looked very simialr to the scene it games that I have grown to love and so I was looking forward to playing it.

The idea of the game is to name hundreds of world famous celebritys using voice clips, drawings, warped photographs and key questions. Make you way around the board by answering questions correctly.

Included in the box is:

A circular game board
4 playing pieces
Chance cards
Dvd
Dice

Next time I had visitors this game came straight out to be tested. The gameplay is very similar to that of scene it, in that your turn continues until you answer a question wrong and the inclusion of dvd questions and chance cards.

You play the game by firstly rolling the dice to decide who goes first. You roll the dice and land on a square on the game board. The picture on that square tells you what type of question you must answer. If you correctly identify the celebrity then you roll again and your turn continues, however if you get it wrong then play passes to the next player and so on.
The chance cards are picked up when you answer a question correctly and can help you to win the game. You can use them to swap places with another player, add some more moves onto your dice or get help answering questions. Be carefull though because you never know what the other players chance carda are, they could be planning on stealing your place!

It is a good game and follows the same concept as scene it! However I feel it's laking something that scene it has but this dosn't, I can't quiet put my finger on it but it's just not the same.

Scene it up to now havn't released a celebrity edition so it's fun to play knowing it's not available on the scene it collection.

If you enjoy the scene it games then you are likely to enjoy this also unfortunately it just can't quiet compete.

Summary: A good game to play in groups
