The Chameleon

Brought this to my crew, great party game.

One criticism of it is that it does have some very american-centric categories, like US presidents, US states, etc. But you can also create your own categories as well so this is mostly a non-issue.

such a good game for families to play. It’s like the card game Mafia. had to find this game after playing it when visiting family

I had some of the most fun playing this game. It's a great talk and joke game. I happened to be Chameleon for 5-6 times in a row during one session. That was crazy.

This game plays very similarly to SpyFall, which is a very popular game, but in my opinion it has a major advantage in that everyone has somewhere to start with their clues/bluffing. In SpyFall you have to be really creative to ask and answer questions about the mystery location, and it can be difficult to come up with something that isn't incredibly vague. Chameleon gives you a grid of words that immediately helps you to start thinking about the associations between words and gives less creative players a great starting point for coming up with effective clues and plausible bluffs.

This has played really well with every group I've tried it with, and even though we've only played with groups of 4 I suspect this plays even better with more people.

Highly recommended!
