About the Game

This is the board game version of charades with a wicked twist! Instead of struggling with unknown book titles, the names of long forgotten films and un-sung songs, this game stretched the imagination to the limit as you race to act out a zany mix of idioms, clichés and sayings. Examples are 'Limbo dancing', 'Mozart composing himself', and 'talking a lemming out of suicide'. Great fun for those who don't mind acting.

Outset Media, Inc. seems to have a version of this game. Many games formerly made by Cheatwell are now credited to Outset Media.
