The Verdict
based on 11 reviews
“Um, I love this game and I'm never going to turn down a play of this at any player count. Uh, it's just fantastic. It's a great sort of entry level deduction game.”(9:35)
“Got Five! is a terrific deduction game, accessible enough that it can be played with kids but fun enough that adults can enjoy it too. Highly recommended as a light puzzle game.”
“The speed of Got Five!, the perfect information, and the plentiful helpers allowing you to keep track of your progress make Got Five! an absolute win for families.”
“So, I have nothing bad to say about this game. Everything is great. Blue Orange [snorts] always knocks it out of the park. This one's no exception.”(7:49)
“But you do get to feel clever, and clever in a way that makes you want to bring the car back around for another spin.”
This clever puzzle-deduction game delivers a satisfying logic challenge as players race to deduce their own hidden tiles using clever sort and compare clues.
“There are stronger deduction games that are more to my personal speed, but I think as a family weight deduction game, yeah, this is luckier than I might prefer for my taste, but I also do like this one.”(8:00)
“This is perfect. This is perfect for you or if you'd like to teach deduction, especially like to your family, to kids, perfect because it is like bare-bones, just numbers, and what you're doing on your turn is very straightforward and simple.”(22:22)
“This is a game that plays quickly, and this would make a great filler game, I think, for anybody who likes light games like this. I enjoyed playing the game, it's kind of cool to me able to just knock off all these numbers.”(3:30)
“So I think this is a great game to play with two people. There's not a lot of deduction games that can be played with two people. Um, we've really enjoyed it because it goes fairly quick.”(6:28)
“I think this is great for gateway deduction. I don't think it is good for long-term deduction. I think it's the kind of game that I would keep either for the various gateway people and/or family members who might prefer something on the lighter side.”(10:12)
