   Game Overview

     The fun begins with the choosing of which color board to write on. Then, Rebekah, the youngest,  is given the “state-of-the-art SELECT-0-MATIC 6000”.  This means that she is the judge. She picks a question and reads it out loud to all players. As quick as they can, the players write an answer on their card and place it on the table. Rebekah looks over the answers and using the “state–of-the-art SELECT-O-MATIC 6000” secretly selects which one she likes the best. Now, all the players get to put their two tokens on which answer they think Rebekah picked. You can put both your tokens on one card, or if you are not sure split them between two cards. After all tokens are put down, Rebekah shows which card she selected and points are scored. Then the next player is passed the “state-of–the-art SELECT-O-MATIC 6000”.

ClarkClan Game Thoughts and Recommendation

     Our family LOVED playing Say Anything. Over and over again, Ben and Rebekah would say, “Can we play Say Anything?”  I even woke up one morning to find them playing a version they made up for just the two of them. 

     The favorite piece to the game was the “state-of-the-art SELECT-O-MATIC 6000. This little round disc with the plastic spinner quickly became a favorite just because of the name. We had a great time hamming it up with the selector.  The hardest part of the game for our family, was waiting until the judge picked an answer before we all threw our tokens on our favorite answers.

     Great family game is the overall consensus from the ClarkClan. Just when you think you know what the judge will pick, they will surprise you. Great discussions occur over why someone picked the answer they did or why someone wrote the answer they did.
