Guide Review - People Magazine Game

Charades, Pictionary, impersonations and word association make up the People Magazine Game. Teams compete to be the first to earn 25 People covers by guessing the celebrity in question.

By finishing in 10 seconds, you win 3 covers; 20 seconds, 2 covers; and 30 seconds, 1 cover. The celebrities come in five categories: Song (e.g. Bruce Springsteen), Screen (Will Smith), Tube (Jennifer Aniston), Scoop (Brett Favre, Bob Dole), and Where Are They Now? (Tammy Faye Baker).

For regular readers of People Magazine and similar publications, the People Magazine Game is likely to be a hit. For others, there's little value.
