JACKBOX Games Fakin’ It Board Game – for Adults & Teens - Fun Social Deduction Card Game for Ages 14 & Up – Hilarious Board Game for Game Nights with Family, Friends & More (3-6 Players)

This game is pure chaos, in the best way possible. Imagine your friends sitting around the table, looking all innocent, but secretly trying to sabotage each other like seasoned con artists. One person is the "Faker," and their sole mission is to blend in with everyone else while they raise fingers, make faces, or point at random people—like a social spy on a mission.The task cards range from simple “raise your hand” stuff to weirdly specific “point at someone” moments, but the real fun is trying to catch the Faker who’s sweating bullets under the pressure. The secret wallets add a nice touch of mystery—because who doesn’t love a good lie detector challenge among friends?It’s perfect for 5 or more players, and honestly, it’s a great way to destroy friendships (or at least make everyone suspicious of each other). If you’re looking for laughs and some competitive lying, this game is your new best friend.

Faking It is the perfect party game if you’re looking for non-stop laughter and suspense! We played it with six people, and it was an absolute hit. The concept is simple yet brilliant—someone in the group is “faking it,” and it’s up to everyone else to figure out who. The mix of ridiculous prompts and sneaky bluffing leads to hilarious accusations and some seriously funny moments.What makes this game shine is how interactive it is. Everyone is fully engaged, trying to read each other’s expressions and body language while staying on their toes. It’s a great way to bring people together, break the ice, and create memorable inside jokes.It’s easy to learn, quick to set up, and endlessly replayable. Whether you’re with close friends or a mix of people, Faking It guarantees fun for everyone. If you love games that spark conversation and a lot of laughs, this one’s a must-have!

I have had a lot of fun playing this game. I have played with both family and friends. You can learn a lot about your family or friends with some of the prompts. The game itself is good quality. I really like the artwork on the box and on the game pieces. The box is also a decent size and doesn't take up a lot of space in my game cabinet.I really hope jackbox releases more board games in the future.

Disclaimer: This was NOT a free product, and I was not offered anything in return for a review. This is a full price, honest review.If you have ever played Jackbox's Fakin' It (the digital game) you will find that this is probably the best possibly way it could have been conceptualized as a physical game.Each round, you divy out card holders. All players except the faker will receive a prompt telling them to perform a task, such as pointing at someone or holding numbers up, or give an answer. The faker will either receive nothing or a different prompt depending on which category you are using. Their job is to pretend as best as possible that they are not the faker. Then during the voting round, they must lie and deflect to convince the other players that they are not the faker.The game is very much a social deduction game in the vain of Warewolf, Chameleon, or Among Us.Being able to read is a must, so very young kids are out. Even at a reading age, it may be difficult for some kids to understand the faking portion of the game, I'd say it's probably best suited for 10+ depending on the maturity level of the kids. That said, the game is just as much fun with a table of adults.There are a large variety of prompts so it would take awhile for the game to get stale. Because of the variety of prompts though, you'll find some cards make it extremely easy to catch the faker. This is the one downside to the game.

If you're looking for a game that is fun, engaging, and something like the online jackbox games, this is the perfect thing. I've spent hours playing this game and it keeps you on your toes. I believe this game should be 10+ just for reading and comprehension purposes but it's a 10/10

I've always loved the Jack box games and so when I found out they had an actual card game I didn't hesitate to buy it! Faking. It has always been one of my favorite jackbox games and now I can take it anywhere. I go. The amount of fun you'll have with your friends while trying to lie, be sneaky, and stifle your laughter is definitely worth the price you pay.We had so much fun. Interrogating each other, lying to each other, and just laughing at the silly answers everyone gave. Definitely recommend this and all jackbox games

The whole family loves playing this game. It’s become a family game night favorite!

The box was used. The box was held closed with scotch tape and when I opened the box everything was all over the place as if the game was used.
