A variety game (but mostly trivia) where every task is themed to be
about someone from the female persuasion. If you've always felt that
trivia games are too male-dominated, well, this game will prove that
there's definitely enough feminine material to make at least one game.
The board has pawns going around trying to collect letters to make
a word like "DIVA" or "MOTHER", but it's pretty easy to head to any
letter you want with the liberal movement rules ... the question
cards are really the core of this game.
I must admit that I had some prejudices coming into this game, probably
unfairly so from last year's HotFlash! But, if you can get past
the somewhat heavy-handed veneer of this game, the tasks in this game
are actually quite managable and often interesting.
What does kill this game, however, is that the components and art design
simply aren't appealing, and I can't really imagine ever convincing my
friends to play this good game. So, better-than-average marks on the
replay value and fun factor, but I think I'll save my money for games
that are targeted more towards me.
