Review of Twister

...of decades, this is what Twister is all about. ==="The game that ties you up in knots!"=== Basically as it says on the box, the last one standing wins!!! This game consists of a plastic mat with 6 of each of 4 different coloured large dots and a spinner. You have to spread the mat out on the floor and get spinning! The spinner has different options on it for where you put your limbs on the plastic mat ie. left hand, right hand, left foot and right ...
...triumph! '''Twister knockout''' Play Twister the knockout challenge way. The winning team stays on the mat and takes on new contenders until all the teams have played. The last team standing wins. I think that this game is absolutely fantastic. It is fun to play with the kids or if family come round, but add a bit of alcohol and you can only imagine the laughs you can have. Yeah I know its designed for kids, but us parents are entitled to a bit ...

Review of Twister

Twister is a game based on twisting. It'll twist your mind, your body and your friends! It is a popular party game played by people of all ages. I have even spotted some adults playing before, so it just goes to show how fun it can be. The good thing about Twister is, is the fact, that if you lost the board, you wouldn't even need to buy another, or stop playing the game. This is merely because the game is so easy to play, you wont find it difficult. ...
...imagine that :0}). Twister is manufactured by MB games and is for ages 6 and up. It says on the box 'The game that ties you up in knots' and it certainly stays true to its word. It costs anything around £15 depending where you buy it from. I brought mine that i used to have from Toys R Us. You can also buy it online aswell! Basically then if you've never heard of Twister and would like to know how it's played, then i will tell you all the details. ...

Review of Twister

...What is Twister? Twister is a game, for 2 or more players. It consists of a plastic, white floor mat, and a hand held spinning board. The floor mat, has four rows of brightly coloured circles on it. Each row of circles, has six circles in it. One row is red, one is blue, one is green, and the other is yellow. The hand held board, is square, with a hand in the middle, that spins around. On the board there are four sections. These are: *Right hand ...
...these sections, is one of each colour circles. Object of the gane. This is very simple. The object of the game, is to be the last person sanding. How to play. Lay out the floor mat, and decide who is going to be the referee. The referee is the one, who holds and spins the board. All the people who are playing, should remove their shoes, to avoid the mat being split. The referee, spins the board, and shouts out, what the hand has landed on. E.g ...

Review of Twister

This is the ideal game for a party. It's really good fun, easy to play and causes great hilarity! The rules are easy enough to learn- simply stand on a plastic sheet with coloured circles printed on it, withyour feet on 2 colours. Then spin a dial to see if you have to move your left or right hand or foot to one of the colours. The first one collapsed in a heap on the floor is declared as the looser and has to spin the dial in the next round as punishment! ...
...it's a really good conversation maker and you can't help but laugh at all the scrapes people manage to get into. People dive over other people and, well, "twist" around about 1cm off the ground before toppling over, taking all teh rest of the people with them! It's suitable for people age about 8+ and can be played with from 3 to about 8 people. I find the more people, the more funny it is, but it is still enjoyable with 3 people. Also try and play ...

...Then I picked up twister and thought ‘oh, I don’t get to play this one very often anymore’, maybe its because my step brother isn’t really into those sort of games any more, my mum just wouldn’t play it, my step dad has a bad back and isn’t very good at those sort of games anyway, my Nan and granddad are a bit old and have bad backs too and well you need someone to spin the spinner and that is just the boring job no-one wants to do or maybe they ...

Review of Twister

...to say strangely enough. Twister is a very fun twisty game. Its good for parties especially when you are under the influence of excessive alcohol as you'll have a laugh. Twister is made be MB and costs around £10 from all good toy stores. Twister is played with a mat that has coloured dots on it, they are lined up in rows of the same colour. For example first row is red, second is green etc. You need at least three people to play although with ...
...so open people shouldn't play Twister as people may touch you by accident or on purpose if they are perverts! How do you feel about breasts in your face or male genitals? Well the first is fine with me but no thanks to the latter! Just be careful that you don't manuneuvor into positions that you'll regret and will make you look extremely silly, like behind another males behind if your a bloke! Well all this sounds fun and is when you play. Nothing ...

Review of Twister

Ciao has placed this game in the 'Children's Game' section - but let me tell you that this is probably not for youngsters at all. The most fun can be had when all children are tucked up in bed and a bottle of vodka has been polished off. This is adult fun at its best - the magic ingredient being alcohol. Most of us know how this game works. If not, the rules are simple. You must stand on a giant floor mat (with marked-out circles of different colours) ...
...A dial is used to obtain which body part must be placed on what circle. Sounds simple...... But it becomes more complicated when there are 5 or 6 of you all 'twisted' around each other. The word 'flexibility' comes to mind. Belive me, anybody can be very flexible after a couple (or a few more) drinks. But remember - ALCOHOL is the most important part of this game. All inhibitions are lost - and you begin to lose care about whether or not people ...

Review of Twister

...did go out and buy twister (a game for ages 6 and up) this month. Now that the confessions are over, I continue. Twister is a great game, which is simple to play and particularly enjoyable for parties. The game is now made by MB games. The contents of the game are a large plastic mat, with lots of coloured spots on it. There are four coloured rows of 6 circles, each having either a row of; red, blue, yellow and green spots. A board, which has four ...

The ‘referee’ spins the spinner and then calls out to each player, in turn, to position either their hand or foot in one of the coloured circles. E.g. “player ...

Review of Twister

Twister is probably one of the most popular board games around, and one of the biggest! The game is played on a huge plastic mat covered in large coloured spots which is placed on the floor. Perfectly sane people then fight verbally, physically and in any other way imaginable to put their extremities on a particular spot. If you have never heard of twister, you probably: 1) Led a rather more sane and sheltered childhood (and adulthood) than myself, ...
...still gets drunk and plays twister of a below average mental age? Yes? Ok, point taken, but it's definately a game for children of all ages! The idea of the game is that one (lucky) person escapes torture, physical exertion and injury completely by standing there spinning a pointer on a piece of cardboard. On the piece of cardboard are four different colours and pictures of hands and feet. Having spun the pointer, the 'ref' calls out "left foot ...

Review of Twister

Twister is a game for a maximum of six players. Recommended for ages 6 and up, realistically the only criteria for participation is having the agility to bend your body in a multitude of ways, and the ability to differentiate between your left and your right. So, what exactly is Twister? Apart from a contortionists dream, it's a game consisting of a large plastic mat that has red, green, yellow, and blue dots on it. The idea of Twister is that you ...
...the mat. In theory, Twister is very simple to play. In practice, it's not so easy and is more a game of luck than skill. Saying that, the ability to put your body into some bizarre positions could be considered an art form. Although suitable for the whole family, I would advise caution in playing the game with your children. Adult collapsing on child can be painful. Equally painful scenario is child 'accidently' kicking adult in the shin to ensure ...

Review of Twister

...Alright, last go - Twister is a jolly funny game where you spread a big plastic sheet with coloured circles all over it out on the floor. You each stand with one foot on a different coloured circle and spin a dial to determine what part of the body goes where (S***, thought I was doing so well, but no, Mr Smutty just can't be kept out of any opinion on this game and I really think I should quit while I'm still ahead... Don't you dare - Mrs D) Twister ...
...guests to let themselves go, you've really got no choice when you're resting your upper leg on someone's unmentionables. It beats Pass the Parcel anyday, and when you play this with a bit of alcohol inside you it gets to be extremely funny. Kids love this daft game and will always try to get themselves into the most unimaginable difficulty with it. That's all part of the game and imagine what fun the MP's would have if they tried this one out - ...

Review of Twister

...The game of twister is an oldie but goodie. I say this as someone who doesn't actually play but watches. I used to play this as a youngster but I think I have grown to old. The aim of the game is to get into as tangled a mess as possible. Each player takes it in turn to put either a hand or a foot onto a coloured circle. The part of the body placed and the colour to place it on depends on the spinner. You are not allowed to share colours, this might ...

Review of Twister

Who would think that such a simple game would bring so much entertainment!! You are provide with a square mat with a row of red, yellow, green and blue dots. For your ten quid you also get a piece of cardboard sectioned into parts such as right hand red or left foot blue, with a spinner attached. Sounds like a quality game doesn’t it!! So here’s what to do. Someone is nominated “spinner” and gets control of the quality ...
...then has to follow the directions, if right hand red is spun they must put their right hand on a red dot. Easy to begin with because you have a wide choice of dots. The second player then waits for their spin to be red out and again, follows the directions. A simple game to learn but not simple to play! Once you’ve had a few spins you are all completely tangled up and eventually everyone will fall down in a big heap with legs and arms sticking ...

Review of Twister

Twister….ahhh what fond memories. In twister you have to basically twist your body around to put your hand or foot on the coloured dot that is called out to you by the person spinning a hand round a board. Sounds easy. It isnt though, with a couple of players playing at the same time, your always bumping into each other. One of the best things about twister is that you get to put your arms and legs in places you would never be allowed to otherwise ...
...arm through a boy or girls legs to get to the spot you have to touch, or you might get their bum in your face for a while. All good fun eh! The kids are very innocent when playing this game and its all in the name of fun for them, adults however have a better idea and really get into the swing of things. Being the person who spins the hand can be the most fun though. Put yourself in this situation….You’re the host, your mate and a girl are playing ...
