My friends and I played this game for hours today and it's pretty good but a couple of the games aren't much fun or unbalanced.
Murder Party is cool in concept but it constantly screws you over with questions you can't possibles know and even who wins can be randomized, it's almost like playing Mario Party. I suppose that's what they're going for with that one but I didn't get much enjoyment out of it and found it a bit frustrating.
The NSA game I found completely boring and without personality. The entire thing is guessing percentages and the rest of the players guess if the real number is higher or lower than your guess. It's that straightforward and doesn't have much of a hook. We didn't play it more than once.
Tee K.O. is pretty great. My friends and I were crying with laughter at some of the shirt combinations that were being made but the way the voting and shirt making works you can very often end up voting between shirts made by the same person meaning they'll get all the points regardless. It's unbalanced to be sure but the fun factor more than makes up for it in my opinion.
Fakin' It was great but the final round is heavily unbalanced toward the faker. Other players have to answer questions and the faker is given a different question and you have to guess what everyone else is answering meaning that the faker is easily outed in the first game of the final round.
Quiplash is still fantastic.
There are some really good games in it but I think the new ones need a little more balancing to be truly great.
