Super Mario Guess Who? Board Game, Play with classic

I bought this for my son’s 12th birthday as he’s a Nintendo fan and also likes board games that don’t take ages to set up or to finish (I’m looking at you, Monopoly!). Both he and his 9 year old brother have got a lot of enjoyment out of it and it’s one of the few games they can get me to play without me wishing the ground would swallow me up.

Knowledge of Mario characters is obviously useful but my boys also found it hilarious playing with their Nan, who had absolutely no idea how to answer the questions they asked or what to ask. You wouldn’t need extensive knowledge to be able to play but if you are playing against a super nerd it might be trickier.

All in all, one of the best games I’ve bought my kids. Definitely recommended.

Proving entertaining for the adults – have to think harder on the questions you ask compared to the standard version..! Do you have a shell ? is a popular one – are you a boy or a girl ? is hard to decide on some but then we are in 2023 so anything goes !!

Guess Who is always fun but this set just has that spin that our Mario mad son would love! I haven’t had any issues with the cards falling out as a previous reviewer mentioned, in fact I can’t see how they could possibly come out if installed correctly. Overall quality seems great and I’m sure it will last well enough to be handed on to someone else once my child loses interest.
Initially I was concerned that it might be a little difficult, but we’ve had many games already and are having great fun now we’re settling into questions.

Plenty to ask, such as
Is your character human?
Do they have a shell?
Do they wear a hat/crown/glasses?
Do they have a moustache? And so on.

Highly recommend this version!
