Should be FEWER or MORE; so, NO
The concept of figuring out words this way is useful, but I can't get past the bad grammar on the box and in the name. If the description was "guess better with FEWER letters," the graphic use of the word "less" would be ok; without that clarification, I didn't feel comfortable giftng the game to anyone learning to read / spell. Great fun to decipher words with FEWER letters, and LESS looks and sounds better and in the game title and at top of the card. But a word game should not be based on a premise that ingores an important difference in the use of the word less (vs. fewer). When you can COUNT a noun (ex: letters, dollars), the correct word is FEWER. We only use LESS to describe a quantiy that cannot be counted (ex: water, money). I cannot get past reinforcing this common misue of the word "less." Sadly, this game is still in my garage - not sure what to do with it.
So much fun!
This game is such a great game to play over the summer to keep up with learning but making it fun. This word game was a bit confusing at first but after one round we were hooked. Can't wait to play with friends and family.

Super silly fun
We had such a blast playing less is more. As a family we really enjoy playing board games and this was no exception. In each round your have a guesser and the rest of the players are clue givers. Your write the clues down on a whiteboard type tablet with a dry erase marker. I loved this option because my 9 year old was able to correct her spelling and even adjust her clue. The words were simple enough for the whole family to guess and we were able to help our 6 year old join in on the fun with some help. We all had a great time working to guess the word with the clues. We played several rounds and would have kept going if we could! Lots of fun. Definitely a great option for older kids and It sparked some great imagination in creating clues. Again, my 6 year old was able to join in with some adjusting and help from mom but it worked!

A little more would be better
This game is not hard but its not super easy to explain. I had to read the instructions a few times to understand how it works and as an adult explaining it to adults it wasnt the easiest thing to do. Once we started playing it was fun but once again this is a game for a big group. Playing with four people was OK but since my husband and I played boardgames together we couldnt play this one with just the two of us so it wouldnt be used as often as we play our other games.

Fun for the whole family
We played this game at a recent family get together. It was so much fun for all of us. Even my younger nephews were able to play. The instructions were easy to read and the game set up and clean up were quick and easy. I would definitely recommend this game to any family thats looking for an evening of fun.

Great Game!
I was so excited to be chosen to review this toy with my niece! I tried to play this game with my sister and my niece who is 8. It was way too difficult for her so we just changed it to drawing a picture of the word. I did end up playing the game as it should be played with adults and it was great! I like how they have a QR code for access to the digital timer. I have never seen that done before and we all agreed that it was a nice feature. The game was a really fun challenge. We also like how we each had our own little board and erasable marker. I would absolutely recommend to Adults and Teens!
