Skillmatics Card Game - DIBS, Fast-Paced Trivia Game, Fun & Educational Game for Family, Friends, and Parties, Quick Thinking, 10 Categories, Gifts for Kids, Teens, and Adults Ages 8, 9, 10 & Up

Purchased this for a girlfriend trip this past weekend. We are a very lively group in our late 60’s. We throughly enjoyed this game. Lots of laughter and good times. It would be great for families as well.

This game is easy to learn, the instructions are clear. You can learn how to play it very easily. The cards are nice sized and made well.This game is a trivia game, the questions are actually pretty easy, but the fun and challenging part is being fast and the 1st one to get the answer right. It has us laughing and not wanting to quit the game.

Bought these for a road trip and didn’t disappoint! Will def get a lot of use out of them.

Fun game

I just finished playing this with my adult brother and senior parents. This is a fun game, but it’s substantially easier for adults. You have to be the first to yell “Dibs!” if you want to answer, and this game will be dominated by those who can speak the fastest – especially if they’re adults, because a decently intelligent adult will generally know the answer to 70 percent of questions.That’s the problem we ran into.My parents were a little slower to speak, so my brother and I dominated the game. It was fun for us until we realized how far behind they were. Once we slowed down to give them chances, the competitiveness and excitement for us dropped. It also took my senior parents a little while to get used to having to raise their paddle AND call “Dibs.” For the first few rounds, they tended to do one or the other.This game will be more fun for kids who face more of a risk if they don’t know the answer than for adults who can easily afford to lose one card on the way to winning seven.Playing to be the first with seven cards makes a nice length game – not too long. My family decided to keep going for fun.The rules are very easy to learn, which is great. The materials are good, though the “Dibs!” paddles could be better. Those could be made of sturdier, longer-lasting material than the thicker card stock used now. A plastic paddle could resist getting bent or drinks spilled on it. The added weight could also make it a little tougher to always hold up in anticipation of calling “Dibs!”In addition, there’s a “Quick Wit” category in which no one needs to call “Dibs” but folks can just shout out the answer. It would be nice if those cards were labeled “All-play” instead to help remind you that they’re played differently.The game says each player gets 30 seconds to answer. No timer is included, but we didn’t find that one was needed. I noticed only one typo on a card while playing, and it didn’t affect the answer, so this game seems to be generally well-edited.

Played this game at our girls' night and it was total fun and laughs... and we're all 65+!!!! lol

It is a fun trivia game for all ages.

Found it harder than expected for kids of correct age for game
