Grown up version of classic game Clue. This is a great game for larger groups and has enough variations to keep it engaging.

Apples to Apples is a great game for most ages. We tend to like the Jr. edition because it's easier to include mixed ages. Time is never an issue - you can play as long as you'd like or are able.

It'll take some time to learn this game for the first go around, but after that it's a fairly fast paced, fun strategy game. I wouldn't be comfortable playing with kids younger than 12-13, but it's a blast with those that age and older. A good game can be finished in an hour and a half. Again, the game is most enjoyable with 4 players but three will do.

Fun, short, bluffing game for large groups. Wild west theme helps.
