The RANK GAME from Storyastic Review & Giveaway

The RANK GAME from Storyastic is a brand new party game that is all about you and the people you are playing the game with. The RANK GAME from Storyastic would be a great addition to family game night or just for fun with friends. My family loves board games and get pretty excited with new games.

 The RANK GAME players have to guess the other players ranking and earns points to win the game. The players have to guess how well they know one another. You have to guess the Ranker’s preferred order from the card. Every correct guess you earn a point and the player or team with the most points after 10 rounds wins. The game play is approximately 30 minutes of play time. The base game has three categories: Everyday Life, Adulting, and Leisure Time. Each category is color coded.

 I received a prototype game with a sample of several cards and played a few mini games with my kids. My kids loved it and can wait to play the full version.  

The game in full will have 150 cards, deluxe wooden bi-directional card stand, double-sided cards for easy viewing, and 2 score pads with 162 score sheets.

There are also going to be Expansion Packs to add on to the game. The game box is also built to hold 11 Expansion Packs. I like that idea of them being able to fit in the main box. We have lots of games with Expansion Packs in different boxes and it is a pain. The Expansion Packs with have 50 topic cards, plus 4 bonus cards. If you have the base game and all 11 of the Expansion Packs you will have 744 unique topic cards. That makes for not coming across the same card over and over. Some of the topic cards are easy and others are more difficult.

The cards mostly have four choices. Some examples are: Season: fall, spring, summer, winter. Ice Cream: chocolate, chocolate mint, strawberry, vanilla. Airplane Seat: aisle, center, window, stand. Weekend Away: B&B, hotel, resort, tent. Thank You Reply: you’re welcome, my pleasure, no problem, [silent nod] are just a few examples

I love that you don’t have to be a rocket scientist to figure out how to start playing. You can play within seconds after opening up the box. My kind of game! With the game you will have four different game modes depending on how many people are playing.

Ice Breaker (2+ people) “Get to know each other” Draw a card. Everyone shares their RANK. No scoring and everyone wins.

Spotlight (3+ people) “Does everyone know each other?” Take turns being the RANKER. Everyone guesses the RANKERS order. Everyone get acquainted, but those who guess right win the game and more friends.

Teams of Two (4+ people) “Do you really know each other” Pair up, players on each team alternate being the RANKER and the Guesser. Gameplay shows how much each teammates know about (or learn) about one another.

Two Teams (6+ people) “Divide, confide, Decide, Collide” Split players in two big teams. Each team has a RANKER. Their teammates powwow to guess their RANK. Rotate the RANKERS. This game mode is for big basher or family feast.

As you can see that the game is very versatile for any size of a group.
