Do you need to play in teams if there are 4 people playing? I noticed that the game comes with chips in only 3 colors.

yes. i guess you could come up with your own chips for the 4th person, but it is fun to play in teams

Yes, you can play as few as three. Of course, the recommended number of players is probably four+.

It can play up to 8 players with the built-in rule, and you can modify the rules slightly (ex. everyone drawing less cards in the beginning) to accomodate for more people. The game shines most when you play it in the teamplay format as described in the rules (ie. in teams of 2's).

It has to be played with more than 2 people... Which is a bummer! My husband and I love the game but can only play when we are entertaining.

most of the time we end up playing it 3 players. we do enjoy it until somebody starts rolling 6s every time and we roll a high of 3 lol. but what i mean is there are 5 races to choose from, if you play with 3 people constantly 2 of those races will get left behind or if you beef up one race the other two players will make sure they are weakened. So yes it can be enjoyed by 3 people fully. Also the game rewards constant players. Meaning starting locations for you, and nobody else. etc

Yes, two people can play. You can even have two persons play two characters each to get four on the board.

You can play with just 2 people, but it would be a lot more fun with more than 2 people. It is also pretty hard so if you're not good at trivia questions ( like me) it isn't all that fun.

This is GREAT for 2 players. I mostly play it with just 2 people but I've also played with 3 and 4 players. The only change is the number of cards each person gets so it's really easy to add players to the game.

We played "teams" with our 7 yr. old granddaughter as it was difficult for her to figure out how to move the board pieces to make a pathway to the picture that she needed to get to. The more players you have playing, the more difficult it is to plan ahead for your path. You see, every time someone moves the board, the paths change. So if four people are playing, then the other three people will each move the board paths in their turn; which means that the paths will be changed three times before you get to move again. If four people play as two teams, then it makes the game easier and teachable as your team will only have to wait one turn (and thus one board paths change) before you can go again.

Yes, you can play as many as you like in each team. I have played with 7 teams with 20 people in each team.

I definitely played with one other person. However, I am not sure if you could play with up to 4 people offline. I am not sure how the game would handle 4 people playing in the same area going in 4 different directions.

It can be that way with four people, it just depends on how you game. You have to treat it with the same fun as the show. If you're competitive, make fun. It is a board game played with real people. Treat it as such and it is a blast.

Fiasco is designed for 3-5 players. More than five players and it doesn't work right, less than three and you have the same problem. I would not recommend playing with less than 3 players... 4 seems like the sweet spot to me.

Not sure, but blues and greens could donate chips to red and signify they're red by turning them to one side or the other. For example, we place all chips on the board design side DOWN (it's less 'busy') so the red player would place his blue or green chips design side UP to signify they are red. Hope this helps

the whole game is playable with 2 people. I'm not sure about 3+. but it's super fun with 2!

Yes... it is probably best (fastest/smoothest) with two. Strategy is best with three, and above 4 people the game play slows down.

My kids said it only works for 4 players. I believe there are more playing pieces, but only 4 can play at a time.
