ABOUT YOU’VE BEEN SENTENCED
The latest in the evolution of games, “You’ve been Sentenced!” is the first game in history to really turn making sentences into a very funny, playable, and challenging game. Using a unique word deck of pentagon shaped cards containing conjugations of funny words, famous names from throughout history, familiar places, and wild cards, players have to make grammatically correct and justifiable sentences. The real fun begins when players have to read their sentences out loud and explain what they mean to the rest of players. They form the jury and vote thumbs up or down on whether the sentence and justification stand and the points are scored. 540 cards with over 2,500 words insure billions of possible sentences so the game is never repetitive and has unlimited re-play value.
Multiple other methods of play are available on our website that turn “You’ve been Sentenced!” into not just a game, but a full game system! We even have a lesson plan to turn “You’ve Been Sentenced!” into a classroom teaching tool. This game makes learning grammar and sentence construction fun and easy.
MY THOUGHTS
The game states it’s for ages 8 and up so I wondered if it would actually be on the young side for my family. As it turns out, it isn’t. The game is played with three or more players. Each player takes ten cards and tries to make a sentence using as many words as possible. For those of you wondering, sentences must be in correct English. The game is a lot of fun because you never know what someone will put down, and some of the sentences can be really funny. It’s super easy to play and doesn’t get boring. This would make a great gift for any family.
You’ve Been Sentenced is available online and in select stores across the nation including B&N, Borders and many independent stores. It retails for $24.95 with add-on decks (Gourmet Cuisine, Pop Culture, Sci-Fi/Fantasy, Sports Highlights, and Word Power challenge) also available.
