How many suspect players? Is it really 8 or are there extra parts?

There are only 8 parts. When we played, I made up a bunch of supporting characters myself and gave them supporting story lines but gave those parts to people who wanted to be less active in the game. We played it as a costume party so that gave everyone a reason to dress up. Hope that helps!

Dear Amanda, I aree with what the others wrote. Additional characters can be added, with creative names and invented back stories and even story lines. Getting into character by dressing the part is defintely recommended - even for those who want to watch more than participate.

Although you can play with just two, the game gets better with more people. The maximum number of players is seven but the optimal number is four or five.

I took a look at the DV Giocci (the publisher) website and it has 8 and up. The listing is not correct. I will see if I can get that updated.Either game should be fine for families.The game is pretty easy and not graphically violent.DaveBoardgames4us

We played with 12 but it made it impossible to win - we still had fun though! I would say 8 max to move the game along.

You can do 4 people simultaneously (even more if you buy extra equipment). When you purchase a game just look at the back of the cover and see how many players it is made for.

You may have as many as 12 players, but it is more fun with more players. I would say four players would be the least amount of people you would want to play with.

I'm going to say no. I think (whether the game says it or not) you need at least three people. But I would go even further and say to have some real fun with this game, you need at least four people.

We've only played with 6 to 8 people. The more people, the better and funnier the game. I didn't even know there was a 12 player version. I don't think it would work as well with just 4 people.

The box is labeled 8+, but I've played it with 5 year olds who have requested to play it again. Cheers, Dominic Crapuchettes Designer of Wits & Wagers and Say Anything

You can play the game solo, so minimum player is one. The game itself comes with enough to play four maximum...but I know there is a promo out there that can add a fifth player.

Not if you want everyone to have a part in the game. There are only 8 characters.

I'd say at least 8. The game says 13+, but I definitely know some 8 year olds that could handle it (though my 5-year old isn't quite there yet). My wife and I love playing it 2-player and we love getting together with friends to play 3 or 4-player. It has become our new favorite since we bought it a couple months ago and all our friends love it as well and have invited us over just so that we would play the game with them. In other words, it's a hit for all ages! We'll be getting an expansion for Christmas for sure!

I would say 4 players. With any less than that, it's easy to guess who is who and makes some of the 'good' cards not as good because everyone can reach each other. We have played with 3 people, but the game was over in about 20 minutes. We've also played it with 15 people before (we had double decks and the expansion packs) and that was just crazy! I would say that the ideal number is between 5 and 8.

Yes. Up to 6 can play but I have only played with 1 other person and it goes well.

I have the double 12 with numbers. I believe they go up to double 18. Up to 16 players can play on double 18. Double 12 up to 8 players. I hope I answered your question.

Several players can play and actually is more fun. My sister & my grandchildren played and loved it. There were 7 kids and 1 adult playing.

I would say that four would be the minimum you would want to have. We spent most of the time playing with only four people, and it was still fantastic.
