When this arrived the pack was considerably larger than expected. Rather than the 500 cards advertised, this box looked as though it could probably contain 1000. What a bonus! Unfortunately my elation was shortlived, because inside this large box was a smaller box in very similar livery, containing, as promised 500 cards. So no complaints, except that if I had bought this in a shop, rather than Amazon, would I have realised that I was getting the standard 500 card pack? It seems a bit crafty to me, but never mind, the larger box is very well made and I have put it to good use.So, are the 500 cards worth the money? If you are an Articulate fan, the answer is undoubtedly "Yes!" This pack lasted us for about 6 or 7 games,

I assume if you're looking at this expansion you already own Articulate and know what it's about, so you probably know what to expect. These cards are really just more of the same, and add a lot more variety to this great group game. I think I might even prefer them to the original cards as they had to be a bit more imaginative with the words after using up the more obvious ones in the original!They seem expensive at first glance for just some bits of card, but they double the number of words and add a lot more hours of fun, so they really don't work out as that much in the long run. Having probably played over a 100 games of Articulate,

At first I saw the price and cringed. [...] in all for some cards! You gotta be kidding I thought.After looking around, I found this (Amazon) the only place to buy them at this price. All other places were higher priced.Then after receiving them and playing with them, I saw the price broken down. Let me explain.Say £20 (approx)spent on these cards. The first use we played with these cards for 3 hours. Each subsequent game lasts about the same.We have had about 4 games now, so 12 hours use for £20. £1.66 per hour. For 6 people to have a great laugh, these days this works out pretty cheap! The more games we have, the better value they become.In short,

A great way to update a brilliant family game. Our original edition was quite tricky for many folk under 40 to know who many of the people on the 'persons' section were. The new 'persons' are more modern...but still not all known to early 20 something's and below. Slight irritation that they do not come in a box and lid inside the main box....just a lid that will not allow for easy removal of the cards as they are the same height. As they are genuine update cards (?) and not 'compatibles' I thought this was a bit odd. And as my title says quite expensive as you have already at some point purchased the game and are therefore a loyal and repeat customer!!However, other than minor disappointments,

I cannot recommend the game of Articulate enough, it is a fantastic game, fun for all the family. The only problem is the you run through the cards too quickly. This is where the extra cards pack comes in. For anyone who has played articulate before, this is a small box of 500 extra cards, just like the cards in the original game.The only annoying this about ordering these cards was the packaging. Upon opening the outer brown box, there was a an Articulate box inside... which then had another smaller box inside... The extra packaging seems redundant. But aside from that, this is an excellent purchase!

Needed to buy more cards for this great family (13+ years) game. Have enjoyed he original game over several years but everyone remembers the answers too well as we have played it so much. Know we will enjoy the extra pack of cards just as much and look forward to many more years of great family get togethers and fun times playing this wonderful game. Best descriptions to date are a) PORT STANLEY - I think it's on the South Coast & b) GANGES - I think it's a mountain range, probably in India.Team members NOT very impressed as no pints scored!!

I have the game articulate and it is great - what do you mean its for children LOL - my family play it all the time (especially when we have had a few lemonades!!) Its hilarious trying to describe the words on the cards - i ordered this spare pack as we used the others so much the words were coming around quickly - i received them very quickly and they had been reduced in price - win - win all round. Another game i would recommend is the Logo game my grandson got it for Christmas but the adults took over as usual.

Great to have some new questions to replace our original set. Ridiculously big outer box ( see photo) from manufacturer as box actually containing question cards is small (about a quarter the size) and neat to fit in original game box space. What a waste of cardboard, no doubt to make it look as though you are getting more for your money as they are expensive for what you get, having said that , it's a great game .

This set contains another set of cards to play the amazing, amazing description game. We'd got to the point where we'd played our original version of Articulate so much that we had done all the questions at least once, and had the best descriptions saved up in our memories! This pack means we can now continue to play it as if it's new. Hopefully they'll keep producing expansion packs so we can carry on enjoying...

We were given extra cards as a present last year which was great. Most played game I think we've ever had, everyone seems to like this game and to be able to play as individuals or teams is great, no one gets left out. This 'extra card box' is a gift for my daughter who I know will love the new cards. We could do with another box of new cards so I hope the manufacturer produces a second extra card pack. GB

Bought this because we've learnt all the answers from the cards that come in the original box. Probably, we will learn these over time as well. The key is probably to buy this box and use both boxes (this and the original) so there's more cards and you're less likely to learn them.Bit expensive for what it is, but there's lots of cards, and it will extend your enjoyment of articulate.

Good to have some new cards to play Articulate, looses one star for being rather expensive and far too much packaging, a box within a box delivered in a box. The lid from the playing cards is slightly taller than the ones with the full game meaning you can't put the lid under the base when playing, probably not a problem with most people though.

Brought this after searching for the 'perfect' family game, and wasn't disappointed.It kept 9 people from ages 9 to 65 very happy over a long weekend, and was equally enjoyable sober and a wee bit tipsy!We also bought the full children's' game, and used the two sets to make a game suitable for all ages.Not cheap, but really, really worth it.

Purchased a new pack of questions as we were beginning to know alot of the answers to the original pack. We play this game whenever the family all get together (8 adults in total) and we have had endless hours of fun with it. I can thoroughly recommend it but it is one of those games that is much better than you think it is going to be.

For many years as a family and also with friends we have played this game and absolutely love it.The old cards tend to leave the teens and twenties at a disadvantage, with (persons), but now with these new cards, it is the oldies that are distinctly at a disadvantage.But no matter what, the game is always spectacular fun.
