5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Fun 25 Nov 2002
By A Customer
Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 3.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
Articulate is a really fab game. It's not really suitable for children, but great fun for older teenagers and adults. It's easy to learn and simple to set up. The idea is for teams to describe words from differrent categories, it gets everyone talking and thinking fast and can be hilarious. It has been the number one game in our family for years.

5.0 out of 5 stars Side-splitting Entertainment 28 Nov 2005
Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
We get this game out at EVERY opportunity. We have had so much fun; I would highly recommend this game to anybody that enjoys a seriously good laugh. To listen and watch how people describe and act out in so many different ways. We have had great fun with people from 15yrs to 78, believe me we have done the rounds with all our family and friends. I still find I have to describe things I have never come across before and I have had the game for 5 years. An absolute must! ( Warning: alcohol can often prevent you from finishing the game due to too much laugher )

this game is amazing. it is suitable for all ages and can end up being hilarious. it is majorly competitive and is definitely not another 'quiet' board game. it is soo good and i played it for the first time the other day and it was the best fun I had had in ages!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good game but could be better 28 Dec 2008
Durability: 3.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 3.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   
We got Articulate for Christmas 2008, and we have played it 3 times already with friends and family.

The rules are simple; describe as many words as you can in the time limit and move around the board towards the finish faster than the other teams. Each board square represents a different catergory to try and explain, and these can be really easy or very hard, which is a great balance for the game. This game is easy to play, fast paced, and a lot of fun. It gets everyone involved and excited and I would reccommend this game for any party.

Please note however, that after only playing this game three times, we are running low on fresh answers. Despite the giant box of cards, most of them are duplicates, and explaining the same thing over and over again takes the fun out of things a little bit. There are millions of words out there, so why there are so many duplicates is very frustrating.

Value for money poor. We already need the bumper pack!!

I also feel the game could have more variations, challenges or things to do. The control sections are good(when every team tries to guess) but the spinner in the middle of the board is relativly pointless, thus, this could be just as fun played without the board. The end is a little anti-climatic after so much excitment, which is a shame because with just a bit more invention, variation and not so many duplicate answers this game could be truly great.

Enjoyable but very short shelf life without a top-up pack, and frustratingly this could be so much better. 4 stars.

This game is fast and full of fun. It can involve the whole family, groups of friends or it would be a good party game at a work night out. Although it recommends being over 12 we played with kids younger than this and they loved it. It is a team game which heightens the fun and while competitive it is not taken too seriously. One for Christmas and any family get together.

Durability: 4.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 4.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
This game is so great, but we can't play it at christmas anymore, my mums banned it because my fiercly competitive dad comes out with a severe stutter and my diabetic grandad nearly has a heart attack as they get so furiously competitive... I think it's great though!

Articulate The Fast Talking Description Game

This game is excellent fun,we took it on holiday and our friends loved it!Especially funny if you have a few glasses of wine and feel in a party mood.Could possibly cause arguments with strong willed personalities!An excellent game for perhaps family gatherings,its easy to 'pass' on any specific card as different levels of intelligence wouldn't necessarily understand the subject or article given.One of the best games we've played.

5.0 out of 5 stars Articulate! 3 Jan 2004
By A Customer
Durability: 4.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 4.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
Excellent! This game is not like other board games which take ages and make you even more bored then you were when you started. It is great. It is fast moving, Frantic and a good laugh. One of the people on your team is trying to describe to you and to get out of you a word without saying that word themselves. A bit like verbal Charades or Pictionary. A great buy. I strongly recommend it!!

Good fun but surprising how quickly four players get through the clue cards. Need to be able to buy or make new cards.
