Name 5

Can you name five things you should never say to your boss within thirty seconds? And five famous inventions? Name 5 is all about thinking fast and shouting together. Roll the die, move your pawn and take a card. The colour you land on matches a category, and then it is up to you: come up with five answers before the sand runs out. Did you manage it? Then you go again. Did you fail? Then it is the other team's turn. The fun is in the special spaces on the board. On All Play both teams compete at the same time to name five answers first. On Flip Flop you take turns giving one answer until someone gets stuck. On Wild you pick a category from the card yourself, and on Double Down you have to come up with five things in two categories at once. Expect lots of laughter, wild ideas and moments where the word is on the tip of your tongue but just will not come out. Right in the middle is the big Name 5 space. If you land there exactly, you get ninety seconds to shout five answers in each of five categories. Pull that off and you win. With room for two to twenty players, this is a game that turns any evening into cheerful chaos.
