Endless Games Match Game DVD

This product is not found in any store I've visited in my hometown so getting it online was a good option. There are a lot of good graphics going through two rounds of questions with 29 possible games to choose from with 5 stars. After two rounds of questions there is the audience match to get a chance of more money. Then you have two more round of questions with the same stars followed by the vaunted Super match where the total amount of winnings are displayed on the screen for up to 6 people per game. Overall an interesting game, not following the game exactly, but close enough to make it interesting and worth purchasing if not for a birthday gift .

If you are a Match Game fan, you will love this game! There are only 25 games so that is the down side. But the little marker boards that come with it could be used if you decide to play along while watching Match Game on the GSN (Game Show Network). It plays an actual clip of Gene reading the question but when the celeb reads the answer they do little picture clips. Still a great look back at the 70s!

We've had 4 game nights lately, with Match Game being the overall winner for favorite game (in fact- we had to play it at EACH game night.) Seeing Charles, Brett, and of course Betty in all their Match Game glory is something we can't get enough of. The music isn't the original music- but it's definitely caught the spirit of the show's music. We only wish there were more versions, and that the slow, slow, slow scoring process could be turned off so we can manually score (which we do - typically we have more than 6 players joining the fun.)

The first thing that hit me when I first played this game was that the original (and very catchy) 70's theme music isn't used here. Video is very limited and the game tends to favor voice overs of the guest panelist to their photos. Some of this was probably to ensure footage wasn't showing the original contestants.Game players write down responses on their own dry erase boards to various "fill in the blank" questions ("Dumb Dora was so dumb, she used her hairbrush on her blank"). Most open the door to innuendo. Although I remember watching this on TV as a kid, I wouldn't call this a "family game."You select one of several "games" from the DVDs menu, which suggests that the replay value is going to be low. Questions aren't mixed probably because the actors on the panel changed through the years.Overall it's a good party game, but not something you could probably play with your spouse/partner on a regular basis.

Its a DVD and difficult to play by yourself. Its not worth the money. I will probably sell mine. This is the first and only thing I have ever gotten from Amazon that I did not like.

The game is fun, however you have to remember the age of this game while playing. The answers can be rather dated. As other reviewers mentioned they show a still picture while the celebrities are talking. But, it is fun to play with friends. Also, the markers provided for each player have been troublesome. Only a few of them worked.

Other than the fact that it can be a little difficult to match some of the answers because it is dated, it is a really fun version of Match Game, the TV gameshow. My daughter and I really liked it. We liked the fact that you could use your own answers and imagination. It's really fun.

I purchased this game around the time it came out. Gene Rayburn is your host (natch), and it features celebs and questions from the actual show. However, a few things differ from the actual show. For one thing, only five celebs are featured in each game, not six. Another thing, while Rayburn is shown with actual clips, the celebs are only shown with still pictures with the audio. The Super Match comes at the end of the first round, and the one with the most matches at the end of the second round gets to play the "Head to Head" match with one celeb. The celeb differs with every game, and it's not always Richard Dawson.It looks like the games used are from the "Match Game '74" era. The questions aren't as wordy or naughty as they became later on in the series. There are 25 games included on the DVD. Once you go through them, you start repeating. Since the answers are from the show, they don't change. So you can memorize them, which makes the replay value of the games predictable. If you're a fan of the 70s Match Game, you'll enjoy playing this. It's largely a trip down memory lane, and they have a lot of celebs on the clips.
