Spontuneous

My family loves game night! We always have. My brother and I loved it so much as kids that we still get together and have game nights as adults. We almost certainly never miss out on games during a holiday get together.

This Thanksgiving after the table was cleared, we decided to try a new game - Spontuneous. Considering me, my husband, brother and his wife are all music lovers, we thought it would be a great fit, and we were right. We really had a lot of fun!

With the four of us playing, the game lasted an average of a half hour each time, so it won't monopolize your time. It's really this simple:  One player (Tunesmith) says a word and the others race against each other and the clock to try and blurt out a 5-word portion of lyrics from any song containing the given Trigger-Word!  The player who begins singing first, gets to roll the dice and advance around the board!  If nobody can sing a song, the Tunesmith must be able to back it up with a song of their own, or else they roll both dice and move backwards.  I love that the premise is to stump everyone, and since we are all music lovers it was really hard to stump anyone.

That’s right I said sing, but don’t worry, it’s not like you are singing a whole song, and it really is so much fun that your won’t bother being shy about your singing skills - or lack thereof! With only 15 seconds to make a guess, it also keeps the playing field level for all ages and doesn't give you much time to think about being shy!

There are also challenges if you happen to land your piece on a Spontuneous Treble Clef. Look at my brother tickled by his challenge! I had a few of my own as well. First player to get their piece around the board to finish and complete the challenge wins - and get all the bragging rights, and in this house that means the right to sing ‘we are the champions’ at the top of your lungs!

If you are looking for a really unique family friendly game to play at your next game night I recommend Spontuneous! I also think it would make a great party game, and would be a blast on a camping trip.
