Is Rollick a good game for a large group of 16

We played with ten (five on each team) and it worked great. It might be a little chaotic with 8 people teams, but I see no reason why it would not work. It might work easier if you do not use the board and just used the cards with that many. Or, you could rotate out a few players each round. Definitely doable in my opinion.

Definitely. That would be 8 on a team. So 7 people on a team would be acting at the same time, while the 8th person needed to guess. I guess the only problem would be having enough room for all 7 to do their charades. We have done it with 12. P.s..the men are the funniest

Yes! We played with that many so we had three groups. Watching the other groups is so funny!

I would suggest dividing into multiple teams for this size crowd. 4-5 people per team would be best based upon our experience. It's hard for all the actors to see the clue if you have too many, but it's a lively game so more than 2 teams should work just as well!

This is such a great, fun game! I think you can play with any number of people. We play this after dinner on holiday gatherings. It is a fun and quick break after dinner, dessert, and is an alternative to the group that gathers in front of the t.v.! Enjoy!

We played once with my game group of 40 somethings and it was liked, but we wouldn't play it again together, most likely. It is not enough of an analytical game for us. However I play with my son, 11, and daughter, 14, a lot and we love it. It can be played and enjoyed at ANY age - it plays best for those who know each other pretty well and for those with vivid imaginations. It really is fun, filler type game.

I've found this game is better with large groups. Multiple teams are more than easy to accommodate, and having many "actors" just ups the hilarity factor, though i think teams of about 5-6 are the best choice.

I was introduced to the "8 player" game recently. We had 9 players so two worked as a team. It was so much fun, I had to buy the 12 player game for us to play Christmas Eve. It is like the telephone game we played when we were kids. The first person writes down the word they have from their card and draws it...passes the booklet to the person on their right that person has to guess what they drew...then the next person draws what they guessed...etc. Sounds easy but - not everyone can draw or thinks the same. You will love it!!! Since there are only 12 pages you may want to team up with the 12. I was introduced to the "8 player" game recently. We had 9 players so two worked as a team.

Sure. It's not as enjoyable as with more players. But two would be fine. (You could actually do it as solitaire, I would think. See how many turns it takes you until you get to X number. Then, try to do it in fewer turns.) But it's really a social game, and as such, more people = more fun.

We've only played with 6 to 8 people. The more people, the better and funnier the game. I didn't even know there was a 12 player version. I don't think it would work as well with just 4 people.

Two people can play it. We've played with as many as seven, but four seems to be the ideal amount. Great game!

Yes... 2 groups of 10 people. In addition, this game tends to be more fun depending on who you play with. Make sure you have people who aren't too afraid to be silly and who tend to think outside of the box:)

We have played it several times w/friends and family. So far one of my son's has said he had remembered an answer. There are plenty of cards, but I can see if you play it often with the same people you can have that issue.

It is a great family game. My wife and I play regularly with adults and have a lot of fun. It is quick to set up, fast to learn and constantly changing.

Hi MrsMe, That's a good question. The games look very similar, but from what I can tell there are some differences. We love Rollick! because it encourages teams to work together and is not simply a "charades" game. Watching teams collaborate together to act out the clues is the true "magic" of the game. Rollick! has more cards/clues (playability) than Reverse Charades and offers additional play variations such as larger groups, head-to-head, and playing with younger children. Also, from what I've read on other reviews, Rollick! is a much higher quality product. I hope that helps. Hi MrsMe, That's a good question.

Yes. Definetely for adults. We were introduced to the game by another couple we met. The 4 of us played along with my 16yr old.

Yup. The game is good for adults. I wouldn't suggest it before age 10 or so, as simple as the rules are, reading comprehension is a must. Particularly good for folks who don't know each other well yet.

Depends on your family. We played with a 17 and 19 year old and they enjoyed it

It scales really well to 2 people. It is a little bit easier (and it's already a fairly easy game) because your actions can be more immediate and you can plan a little bit easier, but still a fun time. I've played it a bunch with just me and my wife.

Its simple enough for playing while inebriated, and it would depend on the group of people weather it was fun or not. You have to make up stories using the dice. It's pretty simple and all about your imagination and creativity.

I took a look at the DV Giocci (the publisher) website and it has 8 and up. The listing is not correct. I will see if I can get that updated. Either game should be fine for families. The game is pretty easy and not graphically violent. Dave Boardgames4us
