never played the game before but want to get it for a group of people age 20+. Do I get Dixit or Dixit Odysee or Journey?

I have Dixit and Journey, Dixit Odyssee is on my wish list. You cannot go wrong with any of them and you will want to add cards anyway. Journey cards are a little less fantasy oriented in the whimsical sense and with less color. It is a great game and I have yet have someone not enjoy it. It does take a few rounds for people to get the hang of it though.

I like the game board from Dixit Odyssey the best of all the games because it accommodates up to 12 players. I have added the extension cards from Journey (the best) and Dixit so that I have plenty of cards to play with. It is a great game for any age, my college age friends really like this game. I know a professor that has get togethers with college students for game night and they have a blast.

If this is your first purchase of Dixit, either one would be a good purchase as long as you make sure you buy the base game and not just an expansion set. I do prefer the artwork of Dixit Journey more, but in the end they're all good, because you can purchase multiple sets and mix the cards together. I currently have four decks of cards. Enjoy!

Odysee handles more players (up to 12) while the others are limited to I think 6 players.

We bought the Ticket to Ride and it is a great game for adults and children. I bought the Ticket to Ride Europe for my 32 year old son since he travels a lot. He says he likes it, but went and bought the regular Ticket to Ride and loves it. Many of his friends bought it too. They love that one as we do. It seems the Europe one is more difficult also, definitely not for children.

Tough question. I've only played with two players and it's a load of fun. With more than two your chances of completing the long route ticket goes down and requires a slightly different strategy. Would still be a lot of fun. Checkout TableTop on YouTube. They play both the North American and European versions. Obviously with more players there's more interaction. More chances to bust a route of a competitor. Hope this helped.

If you haven't played before, I would start with the original. It's much easier to understand. Once you have the hang of that or get bored with USA plus expansion pack, then switch to Europe!

I haven't played it much myself but it seems like it's a difficult game for someone that age. There are several game cards referencing people that a 9 year old would not know. As far as content, I think the content would be ok. I don't recall any questionable cards or anything like that. This is just based on what little I've played it. Hope I was able to help in some way.

To be honest I would grab a full set of conquest of you can and if not go for the quest. Conquest seems to be printed more than quest. Quest is larger but conquest has some cool new cards and ideas that aren't involved in quest. Like senators and metals and other things. It makes the game a little bit more group play than one person at a time. That's what I would do

8 and up is my recommendation. Young kids can team up with older party goers. Fun and easy to play.

It is only a 3rd person POV game. Don't let that detract you from getting it if that is a deal breaker for you. It is truly a fantastic experience and one of the best looking games on Next Gen so far.

Adults will like the game, although it is geared for children! A great game for the family and each hand goes quickly. A fast pace game and that is what will draw adults to the game. Hope this helps!

Our family loved the game but my niece is 18. There are a lot of pop culture references that are older so its harder for young kids to get clues like "Neil Diamond". Don't let it stop you because we can bridge the gap. I am thinking 10 and up!

go with the leapster 2. my nephew has it. cheaper games and more fun for 4-8 yr olds. For 2-4 the discovery is great but limited, too much advertising, the leapster 2 is very durable. not sure how durable discovery is but possibly. read some of the reviews on the discovery. My father in law got it for my daughter. And my nephews have the leapstere so they can;t share games. either is great but I'd go with the 2. note there is no camera on the discovery

With an older partner, you can start about age 6... The tokens keep track of your 'expeses' while you go through the game, but you have to be able to add and subtract in $10 to $100 increments. The top range is as old as you want. I played it first in my thirties, and LOVED it. Taught me concepts I wish had been introduced to me as a child. We now play Cash Flow 101 (the 'adult' version) at least once a year to keep the concepts strong in our day-to-day and planning/investing finances.

I agree with Zongo32. It's a lot simpler and you can go on a solo quest which is fun.

Maybe the rookie or the original. My 13 yr old has not made it through the epic yet. Close but it is a challenge. My 10 yr old has the original and has not been able to get through that. It does keep them busy when they pick it up.

Considering the size of your gaming group I would definitely get Intrigue first so you can get two games going simulataneously.I like JMac prefer Seaside to Intrigue -- and although I haven't played it yet would get Prosperity next.Alchemy is fun, but more of an advanced set and I would get it last.ed

I bought Rush Hour for my eight-year-old and ten-year-old after seeing a friend's gifted five-year-old playing with one. Though I compared them at the time of my purchase, I don't remember the differences between the two games. The grandparents loved doing this with the kids (and without). The travel pouch is awesome. We've taken it everywhere -- airplanes, sporting events, restaurants, doctor's office, car trips, grandparents' house. When they get the hang of it, we time ourselves for added challenge. Good luck!
