Asmodee Skull Party Game - Bluffing and Strategy Game, Family Fun for Kids & Adults, Ages 13+, 3-6 Players, 30 Minute PlaytimeThe Forest Stewardship Council

After playing this for the first time, I knew I had to go get a copy for myself. In fact, I picked up TWO copies so that I could play with even more people!Skull is a fun little bluffing/press-your-luck game that plays up to 6 people (if you only have one copy). The game can be unpacked and played in about a minute. Kids or adults can play the game easily enough, and it only takes about 15 minutes to play a game (depending on player count). It always gets a few laughs and jibes and is a good game to introduce to "non-gamers."

This game is now part of our game night routine. Easy to pick up and play and the whole family loves it.

Easy to learn. Fun for all. Goes quickly so people don’t have time to get bored. Even people who generally don’t like games likes this. Small enough to be very portable. Cards are very sturdy and seem like they will last a very long time without damage. Recommend.

It's a little hard to explain to new players, but easy to get once you understand it. Great game to travel with as it requires little space to carry or play. Due to the nature of the game it can be over quickly or take a long time. It can technically even be stopped for a decent length of time and then picked back up. It's best played with people you know, but can also be fun if you don't know your opponents tendencies. Win by either being the last player standing or by winning out right. Can be played by a large age range my 4 year old nephew sort of gets the idea of the game, but plays with an adult. My 9 year old niece adores it.

If your family or friends like having fun around a table, this is a must own. It's super easy to learn: Everyone places down one of their four circular cardboard tiles face down in front of them. Then you go around the table stating how many circles you can flip over that does not contain the dreaded skull image. The number must always increase until everyone passes, then the highest bidder has to own up to their bid, flipping over tiles starting with their own. They win if they can flip over the number of predicted tiles without revealing a skull, but lose one of their tiles if the skull arrives. Super fun bluffing, and the intensity mounts as the tiles get flipped.

Skull is an enjoyable and engaging game that’s quick to pick up and perfect for a short, strategy-filled session with friends or family. It combines elements of bluffing, risk-taking, and classic game theory with a unique twist that makes it stand out from other party games. The game’s design is sleek and minimalistic, and the rules are straightforward enough to learn in just a few minutes, which is great for introducing it to new players.The first few plays are incredibly fun, especially as everyone gets a feel for the strategy and starts experimenting with bluffing and riskier moves. However, as much as I enjoyed the game, I did notice that its replayability diminishes quickly with the same group of people. Once everyone knows each other’s tendencies and bluffing styles, it can start to feel predictable and lose some of its excitement.While it’s a great game to have in your collection, I wouldn’t say it’s the type of game that comes out over and over again. In a rotation with other games, it’s fantastic, but it likely won’t be the first, second, or even third choice when deciding what to play with a familiar group.That said, it’s perfect for introducing to new groups or for occasional game nights when you want something fast-paced, strategic, and a little different. The mix of strategy and social deduction makes it a solid addition to any board game collection, even if it doesn’t get played as often as some others. A fun game overall—just don’t expect it to be a consistent go-to with the same crowd.

I was recently introduced to this game by a family member during camping and it was an immediate hit! The gist of the game is each player (up to five people, I believe) has a stack of coasters- some are printed with a skull and others with a flower. To play the game, players around the table pick one of their coasters to lay face down on the table in front of the other players. At any point, any player can wager or bet on how many skulls are at the table in a given round, asking other players to reveal their coasters one at a time. I'm probably not describing it well, but it's honestly a blast. It's incredibly easy to learn, everyone can play and have fun, and it certainly helps that it comes in a little box that's easy to pack up with you on trips. Would definitely recommend!

Kids & Adults who enjoy bluffing will love this game. A lot of laughter.
