How many players? 2-5?

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).

yes; I played with my 2 grandkids, and a couple of times one of their parents played with us. I think more can play, but there aren't a huge # of pieces.

It's definitely more fun with more players. We usually don't play with less than four.

No way! I've played with up to 8 people which takes a while. The optimum number of players is 3-6 in my opinion.

I have the double 12 with numbers. I believe they go up to double 18. Up to 16 players can play on double 18. Double 12 up to 8 players. I hope I answered your question.

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

UGAFan30 is correct. The directions indicate that the game can be played with more than five players by creating teams.

3 or more. Although, I tried with 3 and found that it probably works best if you have more than 3 (5-6 players would be a lot more fun). To be fair, we didn't follow all the rules to the letter (mainly bc the rulebook is so long).

It's suitably playable with any number within the range. 5 is AMAZING when you've got solid veteran players. I find 6-7 to be the sweet spot, where 8-10 can get a little hectic. At that point the voting becomes a little less useful and you're left to rely on your gut and attempts to fish people out through harsh interrogation.

It is fine with 2, but better 3 or more. I've played it with my 27 yo brother-in-law and had fun. Of course the more the merrier, but it works as a two player and is still enjoyable.

There is a two player varient with the "ghost Ship" but i have found the more players the more cut throat it becomes!! I have found that 3-4 players works best in my opinion.

This game can handle up to 5 players on its own. If you mix it with other sets of the game, you can get up to 10.

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

The game description indicates 3-8 players. I'd want at least a minimum of 4, preferably 5, playing to keep it interesting. The only real reason you can't go over 8 people is because that's how many game pieces/dry erase boards you are provided.

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.

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

Yes, you can play it with just two. Of course more people makes the game longer and often times more fun.

Two three or four can play. You can play as teams. Do I dare say "sets"?! :-).
