Review on 🤔 Second Thoughts: The Ultimate Quick Thinking vs Fast Talking Party Game from The Good Game Company by Paul Mac

This is a fun game. It's somewhat taboo with a touch of scattergories. Basically you have two teams, purple and orange, each team has a card with five word spaces and then colored squares in different positions on each like (corresponding to the letter spaces in the word). Each colored square corresponds to five multicolored 12-sided squares. Bones with letters on all sides. When rolling the dice, you place the letters of each dice in the corresponding colored squares on each card. Then the teams make up words that contain letters. You then trade cards and have one person from the other team describe the words your team wrote for their teammates to guess. Interestingly, the guessing team gets exactly as much guessing time as it took the authors to write. So you can either spend all your time finding tricky catchphrases or try to write 5 words as fast as possible and try to undercut the competition with limited time to guess. It is very interesting to try different strategies. There is a simple game board and the team that gets to the end first wins. We played it with a group of 6 (two teams of three) and had a lot of fun. Since it relies on players finding their own words, it doesn't get repetitive as much (if you need to use certain cards, for example), so it's nice. In general we really liked it. It's fun and fast.
