Long Story Short Review- Fun Party Game!
Long Story Short Game
Ages: 13+
Players: 4~8
Learn How To Play: 5 minutes
Suggested Retail: $24.99
Long Story Short is a hit party game that mixes social media with the time-tested fun of storytelling. What? Yep, that is right, social media and game fun all in one, so you know this game is perfect for teenagers but it is also entertaining for any age. My review agents consisted of myself, my hubby, and my 8 year old, and 6 year old. Though my kids are well below the suggested age, they are super smart and totally got the instructions. They loved the concept of the game because this is basically a story game where you take turns telling a story and the others condense the story down into short form.
Fun Story Starters
Each round, the Storyteller (this role rotates) shares an memory or story with the group using the fun story starters. The storyteller tells a story that is either true or false. Players then make the long story short by creating a headline, drawing a picture, writing a text, or crafting a tweet for the story told. Players compete for the best short story. Long Story Short will have everyone ROTFL for hours. LOL! #fungame
It really is funny to see what everyone comes up with and how they condense down the story and what funny social media short forms they include. I was surprised my kids were so into the game. I liked hearing what they made up with the story starters and how creatively they condensed stories down. It would a great way to learn about people to if you weren’t as familiar with the people you played with. The only part I didn’t love was that it was a bit subjective since the storyteller awards points for the other players creations but that is fair since it rotates turns. Overall, it was a fun family game for us and I think it would be an even more fun party game.
Where To Buy Long Story Short Game
Where can yo get your own Long Story Short party game? From specialty toy stores, like Toys ‘R Us, and craft stores, to mom-and-pop gift stores and museum shops, there’s probably a location nearby that sells the product you’re looking for. If not, you can always find Long Story Short on Amazon.
I hope you enjoy this fun party game! Have you tried it yet?
