This bluffing game is a recipe for laughter. Players earn points by guessing answers to weird questions with unbelievable, but true answers. What is the definition of sialogogue? If you guessed "anything that creates the flow of saliva" you win a point and advance your piece on the game board. You can also advance if you successfully bluff other players into thinking your answer is correct. The educational component of the game lies in writing imaginative and authoritative definitions to fool, charm or stump the crowd-- an excellent creative writing and vocabulary workout. Players also learn to "read" their opponents' body language and distinguish their writing style. The fun component comes when the answers are read out loud. It just goes to show that sometimes truth is stranger than fiction. (Mattel, 2 or more players, $22.99)
