Can you play with six people?

I gave this to my grandchildren, so I asked them your question. Here is the answer:"It's supposed to be played with 4. There are 6 "characters", each with different "abilities", but the different combinations of 4 of the 6 change up the game." So I guess the answer is that up to 4 can play. Sorry if this doesn't work for you. They really love the game!

If you're looking for a similar game with a 5/6-player option, "Forbidden Desert" looks like a great alternative.

The game says it is for 2-4 people, however, there are six roles that players can take so it is possible to play with six if you wanted. I have played it with 2,3, and 4 personally and it was always fun but easy. I have never lost on any difficulty, and while it is possible to play all six roles I worry that it would make it too easy.

The game is only designed for 4 players/pawns. But since the game is cooperative, you could have 6 players and all work together using the 4 pawns.

The rules specifically say 2-4 players. I would think you can, but it would be awfully hard to win, as you would cycle through the treasure deck much more often, and the waters would rise too fast to collect the treasures in time. I would say 4 players max as the directions state.

2-4 according to the rules. There are enough pieces for 5, but the gameplay would probably be chaotic.

Yes, it works just fine with two players. We've played it quite a bit with 2, 3 and 4 players and all play slightly differently but are all just as enjoyable.

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.

2 people could in theory play the game but it would get boring fast. I prefer playing the game with 6+ people So the game lasts a lot longer.

Yes, it can be played with two people and is still very fun and challenging. The more people you have playing the more unpredictable the game gets.

Theoretically, you can play with as many people as you want. You just need two white dice and two black dice for each person around the table. It would probably end up being really convoluted and complicated with more than five people, and would likely be a really, really long game, and you'd have to worry about the narrative breaking down, but it would also likely be a lot of fun and would be pretty insane near the end.Four is the preferred number, five is the suggested maximum as per the rules, however.

I would think it would not be very fun with three. I've played it with four or more and that seems to work best. The more the merrier!

It's usually best if you keep the same 6-8 players playing, but it could be a lot of fun if you just had the same 5 the entire time.

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.

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.

You can. I've played it with students as 3 player. But you might want to modify the rules a bit. Because with 3 players, you either score 2 points or no points. Which isn't as much fun as with 4 or more players.

Not on the same PC. You can, however, play with up to four people at a time online.

It can, but to get the full effect of the game, I would recommend playing with at least 4. I played with 3 players the first time and I felt that the game didn't have the full charm and effect. Also, it can allow one player to become too strong. 4 or 5 players would balance the game better. It is hard to get those 5 people together everytime you want to play though!

Two can play, and it's okay. So much more fun with 4-6 people. Our family loves to play this game.

This is great game for 3 to 6 players. You can play it with two, but it is more fun with more players.

You can play with 4, for sure. When I played with 3 people, each person threw down 2 response cards to keep it interesting and funny.
