Change My Mind is such a fun and engaging game! The packaging is super enticing, and the topics are absolutely wild — you start debating the moment you open the box. It’s the perfect mix of laughter, conversation, and friendly competition. Highly recommend for anyone who loves clever, thought-provoking games!
Great way to create dialog, share opinions and debate.. LOL The rating/scoring is a little funky to follow, but the fun is in the challenges and answers. I'm a Boomer. Reminds me of the old college days when you would debate just to debate - about all kinds of stuff. Why DID the chicken cross the road? LOL
Good value for people who like lively interaction with each other. And WAY better than watching TV or being glued to your smart phone.
This �Change My Mind� family game has been a big hit with the adults and older grandkids. The game sparks debates that are silly, lighthearted, and hilarious, which makes it perfect for game night. My 17-year-old grandson especially enjoyed it and wanted to keep playing round after round. It�s funny, family-friendly with a little prep, and a game we�ll play again.
I picked this game because I was looking for something fun to play with family, and I think this will be just the thing.
Here�s how it works: each player gets a card and secretly ranks their answers in order using tokens. The dealer then flips their own card and openly ranks their answers with tokens. From there, the fun begins�everyone else tries to convince the dealer why their order is actually the right one.
It reminds me a little of Two Truths and a Lie. In that game you�re convincing people why they should believe you, and here you�re convincing the dealer to see things your way. Same kind of playful debate, just with a new twist.
I can already tell this will lead to lots of laughter, creative arguments, and some surprisingly thoughtful discussions. I�m really looking forward to trying this with a bigger group�I think that�s when it�ll be at its best.
This is a quick, fun game for 4 or 5 people who like to talk. The basic premise is that one person (the Ranker) controls one round of the game. The Ranker picks one of about 40 preprinted cards, each of which has a different item to rank. Each player uses 5 supplied chips (about the size of a small poker chip) to indicate their individual ranking, with the catch that these rankings are hidden from the other players.
After everyone has finished their own rankings, the Ranker turns over his/her chips to show the Ranker's ranking. The game then begins in earnest, as the other players then try to get the Ranker to change his/her ranking through "logic" and "persuasion." Points are scored when a players ranks are the same as the Ranker's rankings.
After rankings are compared and points are scored, the status of Ranker passes to another player, and a new round begins.
The description offers the opportunity to "play it solo" -- but it's really difficult to imagine how that would work. In reality, the game needs at least 3 (preferably 4) people to make it fun.
One drawback is that there are chips for only 5 players. We made up our own score sheet (not supplied with this product) to allow up to about 8 or 9 people to play. (The image of the score sheet attached to this review is hereby put into the Public Domain without restrictions.)
Bottom line: This is a fun, clean, family-friendly game that can take anywhere from 30-60 minutes, depending on play style.
NOTE: There are two other versions on offer that are decidedly NOT family-friendly. The box for these versions aptly notes those versions are for 17+ age.
