Guide Review - BuzzwordIf the buzzword is "cat," the clue might be "fuzzy swamp plant" -- and the answer would be "cattail." For "cheese," one clue is "Packers fans' fashionable headgear," with the answer being "cheesehead." In the party game Buzzword, each card has a set of ten clues and answers; each answer includes the buzzword. One player reads the clues while his teammates guess the answers. They have 45 seconds to get as many as possible correct; when time expires, their opponents can steal any that they passed on. Each correct answer is worth a point, and the first team to 50 wins. Buzzword doesn't appeal to me as much as Catchphrase, for example, but it is a very good game. If the description here makes you think you'd like it, you probably will. |
