Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I first played this game back in college (as a Psychology major) when it first came out, and it came in a huge gray box. Then a few years later there was a version in a smaller gray box, but I haven't seen it around for a while. Really cool that it is back. It was one of my favorites, and a fun one to play with people because most people didn't have it, and so hadn't gone through all the cards and learned all the answers yet. Getting sent to psychosis is always fun if people act it out. There is also a little book with mini inkblots that you get to interact with occasionally.
I don't know if they have updated the cards for this version, but I hope so. Some of the "facts" were outdated even back then... although of course it is still fun. :)
Warning for those playing with children: there are (at least used to be in the original version) some cards that are of a sexual nature. Since you might not want a kid picking up one of those cards accidentally, I suggest going through the main deck ahead of time and removing those cards.
Overall, great game, and interesting psychological trivia. :)

In Therapy the Game, you move through the six stages of life answering fascinating and fun questions about everyday life. As you move your therapist's couch from Infancy to Seniority and stages between, you answer Insight questions drawn from actual psychological research (footnotes included). Along the way you'll land in your opponents' therapy offices and they'll land in yours -- you get to be the therapist, and the patient. This is where you'll find out how well you know your friends and family, and how well they know you. You go into Group Therapy with other players and find out surprising things about them, and yourself. You guess what most people see in Therapy Thinkblot pictures, and (if your issues are severe enough) find a way out of Psychosis! Be the first player to get one peg from each stage of life -- filling up your therapy couch -- and then reach the finish space, and you win! Includes game board, 360 Stages of Life cards, 90 Therapy cards, 30 Thinkblots cards, Thinkblots booklet, 6 Therapy-couch movers, 36 Stages of Life pegs, 2 game dice, and game instructions.
