Catch Phrase Electronic Game | Fun Active Handheld Party Games for Adults, Teens, and Kids | 4 or More Players, 2 Teams | Portable Summer Travel Activities | Ages 12+ (Amazon Exclusive)

Love this game...we have literally wore this game out multiple times over the years. I believe this is our 3rd time purchasing it. It's good family fun and it's compact which makes it easy to toss into a suitcase, a car door pocket, or anywhere. Fun to play and easy to take anywhere!

We already owned a copy (ours is white and blue) and we wanted to get this one for a family member. Got to play it with them on Christmas. The only complaint I can come up with for this version is that the ticking sound is a little louder than it needs to be. But once you try to play Catch Phrase this way, you never want to go back to the paper version of the game. This keeps time and score while displaying your phrase to you, so it's everything you need. The batteries in mine last for a year or two with regular use, so hopefully this is no different. You can't turn the game off, it just shuts off by itself if no buttons are pressed for a while. For those who have never played this, the game itself is fast paced and fun. It is ideal as a party game or in larger groups. When one person starts he/she has a word or a phrase displayed on the little digital screen. Let's say it's "Living the Dream". The individual then has to try to get his/her teammates to guess and say out loud the phrase without saying any of the words, saying what they rhyme with, or gestures. With the exception of occasionally getting stuck, or accidentally saying a form of one of the words (like "to live) and having to start over with a new phrase, it is a quick game of verbal charades - in this example maybe you would tell people how many words and maybe getting them to guess "the opposite of dying?" and "what do you do when you sleep?" and hoping that they put it all together. But the fun of it is that you have to think on the spot and you never know where people's minds will go with any particular phrase. The entire time you play, a timer is going. You want your team to guess your phrase and pass the game to the next person in the circle (on the opposite team). They have their own phrase to try to get people to guess. You can look over their shoulder to make sure they don't accidentally cheat. You don't want the buzzer to go off in your hands, because that's a point for the other team, so people try to be as fast as they can. Since this is such a fun game to get people pumped and it can be played very quickly (for example, while people wait for more guests to arrive), we play it often and sometimes adapt to our own rules if there aren't the right number of players - like everybody guessing instead of having teams (again, just because it's fun), or playing "honest Catch Phrase" with just the two of us - where there is only one person per team, so obviously you have to trust them to do their best to get you to guess even though it is not, ultimately, in their best interest. My point is, if you like games, or even if you aren't sure if you are going to be big into board gaming and are just getting your first games - you should have this one on the shelf. There is no learning complicated rules and if one person isn't particularly good at it, they can often be teamed with those who understand how they think best, or just the stronger team that would win all the time if you didn't have someone to even it out ;-)

I bought this game to use when family and guests come. It provides hours of fun and laughter!

Great gamefor the whole family! We love to play.

I’ve loved catchphrase since I was a kid. We perched this for an upcoming family trip so there would be a less comber sum version of the game and of course we gave it a quick try so much fun for the whole family

Classic game that is a great addition to anyone’s collection. Great price for the amount of fun you will have with this. It has long been a family favorite and great for all ages as long as they can read.

This is such a fun game! It is similar to charades, except you can speak to give the clues to the expression or thing that your team partners have to guess. To add to the pressure, you have a timer that clicks down. If you are left holding the device when the timer goes off, the other team gets a point. It is loads of fun for everyone! There are lots of categories and clues for everyday expressions and things.

The Electronic Catch Phrase game has become an absolute favorite in our household! From the moment we press the power button and the timer starts ticking, it’s non-stop laughter and excitement. This game is a perfect fit for family gatherings, creating an atmosphere that’s both entertaining and engaging. The pressure builds as the timer counts down, pushing everyone to think quickly and come up with clever clues. It’s amazing how it brings out the competitive spirit in even the most reserved family members! What sets this electronic version apart is its modern twist on the classic word-guessing game. The electronic component adds a dynamic edge, keeping everyone on their toes. The game is intuitive and easy to navigate, so even the youngest members of the family can join in on the fun. One of the highlights for us has been the wide range of categories and phrases. It keeps the game fresh and ensures that there’s something for everyone, from pop culture references to everyday sayings. It sparks lively discussions and often leads to hilarious moments of brainstorming. The Electronic Catch Phrase game has truly become a staple in our family game nights. It’s a surefire way to create lasting memories filled with laughter, friendly competition, and bonding. If you’re looking for a game that will have the whole family hooked, look no further. This one’s a winner!

Played it with the whole family at Christmas and everyone loved it.

Game is soooo fun and can be played anywhere, easy to pack in a bag. No hard rules to learn. The game gets flying around the circle as you dont' want to be the one holding it when times ends.

Its a really nice way to spend time with family and friends

Whole family fun

I love board games . My husband and some family members not so much. This is FINALLY the first game I am able to get everyone to play and ENJOY ! No paper, pencil or little pieces- just this plastic disc you pass around ! It’s so easy to play and explain, and easy to throw in your bag to parties , dinners etc. there’s different categories and the score is kept right on this disc . Love it would make a great gift too except I wish that the packaging was nicer . It comes in a brown cardboard box - which might make it less giftable for some people
