Is this different from We Didn't Playtest This: Legacies?

Yes. The Legacies game contains more cards and can stand alone from other Playtest games.

As others have said, this is really a different version ofthe game, not an expansion or sequel. So yeah, this requires no prior knowledge or experience.

James - I'm not sure why there is a difference in listing, but coming from someone who played with different sets in different countries, any difference this set has from Wikipedia's description is negligible and won't affect the gameplay at all.

Well that would kind of take away the fun of "not playtesting this at all" wouldn't it?

Yes, but they are gamer instructions. We played two times and messed up both. But after that we were great. It's just the learning of the game and realizing what you did wrong. LOL It's a stand alone game. So it is complete with all instructions.

It helps but it is not necessary. Several aspects of the game are completely different, giving the game its own originality.

I don't know the difference but want to mention the following: 1) the box arrived very damaged with stains on it (I will not use this supplier again), and, 2) the game is very easily mastered. After about two turns for each side it's a boor (sp?). Horeshoes is more exciting. I highly recommend at least not using the supplier.

The difference is this has 12 rounds instead of 6 so (i.e.- 12 players are playing one game and flip the cards 12 times until it gets back to the original player)

Unfortunately not the same version and good luck getting 5 more people willing to learn how to play. I regret buying it.

I'd say "probably not", unless you're a big fan of the show and would enjoy seeing all the references. I played solo a couple of times when I was learning the rules, but there are other games I own that work better for a single player.There's only one real solo scenario provided with the victory condition cards. You could play most of the others solo, but since they have no time limit other than "do it before the other guy", you'd never be at risk to actually lose. If you were highly motivated, it would probably be possible to write some additional solo scenarios for yourself.

I think it is different. It has many other games that I had not seen before. I like it a lot.

I can't really say if they're the same, I'm sure after so many years they update their game to stay relevant since some of the keywords are famous people. The cards are not actually questions though. There are four different colors to differentiate which word has been used so you can use the same card four different times. On those colors there is just one word for the player to describe and a few words below the keyword that you are not allowed to use to describe the keyword.

No, because this is meant only as an expansion to Cards Against Humanity. It is not a stand-alone game. When you buy Cards Against Humanity, it comes with instructions.

Having a varying roster of players for each game won't ruin the game; however, the board and factions do change after every game. It's nice to go into a game knowing you were responsible for everything that has happened to your faction and your countries. If a new player comes into the game after changes have already been made then they have to play with those changes and the game experience doesn't feel as personal. When you customize your factions and your countries it does make the game more personal to each player and things can get a little tense during gameplay because of it. So it might be beneficial to have different players. On the other side of that, we only had one player drop during our Risk Legacy span, and all of us who played find ourselves still talking about it at group gatherings.

That's how we thought it was played too. We played it once n got rid of it :-(

Hi Tracey N. I took a look and I really don't know what the difference is. I wish I could tell you. I read both descriptions and they both match the game we have, so I am not sure. Perhaps you could try looking on the manufacturers web site for more information. I am sorry I cannot give you a better answer.

Hi,It appears to be an expansion game. You may not understand the game story without the original. I will buy the new game and use it as an expansion. Do not wait. This is a wonderful game! Hope this helps you.
