Le Cliché du Siècle

Tier 3- Very good but with a few minor flaws, still enjoyable for many (5-10) plays I had mixed expectations from this game going in based on what I had seen and the visuals. I love the concept— a deduction game around taking a group picture! However the poor art quality / aesthetic plus the weird box cover art which makes it (unintentionally) seem like a giant woman is smiling down at 2 cake-topper dolls before she gobbles them up? (ugh!) is equally hilarious and a turn-off. We played the version without using the table stuff as currency /bidding. I usually prefer to play the "full" version of any game, but I cannot help but feel the bidding/negotiating would just make this game tedious and boring. The game was great as is and quite fun. It has a bit of memory (which i dislike) but barely, and did not bother me. If the art and components (see-through plastic standees instead of opaque cardboard ones are a must) were better, this could bump up for me. I would stil want to try the full version at some point.

The deduction is fun, if basic. I wish the information stages were a little smoother.
