Several players can play and actually is more fun. My sister & my grandchildren played and loved it. There were 7 kids and 1 adult playing.

The game is designed for two to four players. With only two players, it can be a very predictable game of strategy. With three players there's an added element of unpredictablity that adds to the fun/suspense.

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

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.

I'm going to say no. I think (whether the game says it or not) you need at least three people. But I would go even further and say to have some real fun with this game, you need at least four people.

It's been a while since I purchased it for my boys. If memory serves me correctly, the backgammon board is on the underside of checker and chess board. So no, all three games cannot be played at once.

Nope, you can easily play with just two people. I usually just play one on one with my girlfriend. And if you get the Reaper expansion it introduces a third "player" on the board, as you can move the Reaper around and try to make it land on your opponent. Have fun!

Absolutely YES!I played it with my friend for over half a year. We did not change any game rule. We just played it in 3 VS 3 mode, chose 3 Houses by random at the beginning of the game. It's funny and the balance is good.The difference between 2 players and 3-6 players is the time on thinking. For the reson that you should make plans for 3 Houses all by oneself, so 2 players game will be much longer than 3-6 players.

I don't see why you can't play with 3 players. I think it would work just fine. More players often makes the game more fun since there are more answers to bet on but 3 should be just fine in my opinion.

Yes. You are able to play with two characters and a third in tow, allowing one of you to switch to that third character depending on the task to be completed.

This is a LOT of fun for all eight players. No duds. You must have exactly eight players, however. It doesn't work otherwise.

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

No, you can give the 5th player any role. In fact, the rules recommend not using the bio terrorist variant with 4 normal players+bio-terrorist, as the variant works best when playing with 2-3 normal players.

This is a GREAT game but not for 2 players. It's possible but the more players, the better, just like many other games.

You can play with just two people. It is more fun with more people (we have played with as many as 7), but can still be fun with just two. I personally love this game. It is a challenge to be creative.

The game is for at least two players, but it can be played by different aged children. For example, my 2nd grader can play against my 6th grader because there are different questions for the different ages.

In my point of view, I do not think this game is that fun with only two players........It might be ok though. I have always played with at least 4.
