Guide Review - Rigamarole

Rigamarole is a party game in the vein of Cranium -- it takes success in numerous kinds of challenges to win. Sensory Perception usually involves wearing a blindfold; Stage Fright is like Charades; Word of mouth involves a variety of word games; Uncommon Knowledge is a mixed bag of clever challenges; and the Hidden Talents Final Challenges present all sorts of activities that must be completed.

A team wins after earning a card from each of the four categories and completing a Final Challenge. Rigamarole has questions and activities designed to inspire conversation, in addition to some more standard questions. This game deserves to be tried by ans of the party game genre.
