The age recommendations are for ages 8 years old and up. Our 9 year old daughter caught on pretty quickly. We try to have a family game night at least once a week and this game has truly been a great addition to our game collection. Our 4 1/2 year old son is still a little young for it but he is still involved when we play. He’s on someone’s team and he thinks the things we come up with are pretty funny! Some of the sentences that were said while playing had us rolling in laughter. We always have a good time playing games but I can’t remember the last time we had this much fun! Seriously!
It’s also been a great learning tool at the same time. Our daughter only being 9 years old isn’t always grammatically correct in her sentences and You’ve Been Sentenced has been a help with that! Not only is this game fabulous for family game night fun, it’s also great for get togethers and all us adults enjoy it without the kids as well. We like to play in teams or even see who can come up with the sentence with the longest words first. Just some of the sentences that we came up with were “Needy Napoleon figured out that (wild card) maddening pigs are bombing the monkey bars.” Another one was “Spooky, pink F. Scott Fitzgerald filled the pool balancing famous Isaac Newton.”
Check it out below!
Depending on how the game is played and how many people are playing, it can take 30-45 minutes to play a game. If you don’t want the game to last that long, you don’t have to play to 200 points. Three to ten people are able to play this game. If you are looking for a great game with tons of fun and learn a thing or two at the same time, this game is definitely for you! There are also additional card decks that you can buy for even more fun. Buy additional ones that fit your personality! We have a lot of fun playing this game and it’s a great way to create good fun memories and a wonderful way to get laughing! Go ahead and try it – “you’ve been sentenced!”
