The Awkward Storyteller | Party Game That Involves Everyone in Fun, Laughter and Creative Story-Telling

Really enjoyed playing this game over Christmas, we played with our whole family from age 9 upwards and it was totally fine for the children, our 12 year old was better at it than anyone else! Didn't feel the need to remove any of the story cards as nothing seemed that dodgy and party gamey. Yes it is a party game and yes it takes away your inhibitions and helps the story flow let's say if you've had a few drinks, but it is by no means essential. Just a really fun family/friends get together game, bit different from the norm. Highly recommend if you want some giggles. I ended up giving the game to my brother who loves games, so now I am hoping they will come back into stock so that I can buy another copy for myself!

Nothing wrong with the game and produced some laughs around the table. It tends to favour those who speak more fluently or can think quicker; it leaves others a bit bewildered. It provided variety, but we soon reverted to 'Cards Against Humanity' which produced the usual hilarious uproar.

This is a good game for 4 people but much better with more people. Once everyone had got more confident with their answers, we got some hilarious stories and a lot of laughs. Age range we played with 21-75. A good addition to our game selection and will be used at family parties.

It genuinely is a great game to play... Totally worth it! As it says, it is not an grammar game but a party game! The best thing about this game is that it is incredibly flexible. You're not limited to what the cards specify - so you can involve people of various backgrounds and ages. The sky is the limit (and maybe your imagination). It's great how some stories have some real life basis to it ;)

Really good fun. Played with friends and now got them a copy.

Bought this for the family to play at Christmas and it’s lots of fun. My 11year old had no problem keeping up with the stories and is just as creative as anyone else. There’s no advantage for the intellectuals with this game, it’s a level playing field and very refreshing. I imagine it would only get more hilarious after a few drinks, but is very funny without.

A bit of good family fun.

It is a good game, definitely needs more than 2 players though as it can get boring quickly if played as a couple.

I was not sure how this game was going to go. It was a gift for my boyfriend and his family and we played it after they opened it. It was very simple and pretty fun actually! We had some good laughs at the stories that came out of the game and now we have some good inside jokes. I think this game is good for, like it says, creative people. If you are getting together with a ton of literal people or uninteresting conversationalist, it may not be so fun. The stories aren't supposed to make sense and you have to be able to make connections in the story with the strangest words, so it takes some out of the box thinking. The red and green card deal with the whole voting if the story makes sense we didn't really use, mostly because it seemed a little obtuse. I like how even if you got the same cards the story was never the same, so you could play it for hours and get a different story every time. The quality of the game was very good the cards were nice and it came with everything that is described. The box was smaller that I thought it would be, bit I was happy it was. I expected a bigger game but was pleasantly surprised. Overall I think it makes a great addition to any gaming family's collection.

This game is so fun to play. Definitely gets awkward sometimes when you can try to trip up the storyteller lol it took us a little to get the hang of the game but after learning it- it’s funny.

Not a bad game but pretty now on replayability factor. After a few round gets a bit boring

This game is very fun when played with five or more players. It is very different than most games which is refreshing. The rules are not the best and do not make the most sense; For instance, the rules state that if a player gets through all the other player's questions then they gain two bonus points, but this makes no difference at all, as they get a point per-question cleared anyways, so these bonus points can not change player standing at all. With time, players get pretty good at the game and three or four way ties happen often. We found that instead of moving on to the next player when the story teller has answered the table's questions, the game runs faster if we let the story teller continue past one circle around the table until they fail, as this reduces the need to start new stories later on to figure out ties.

Very confusing to play. I read the directions, my parents read them, my sister read them and we just did not understand how to play the game to the fullest extent. I contacted the customer service and they were very fast in getting back to me for clarification, but I still did not understand how to play.
