What Comes to Mind? is a game where great minds think and score alike! The game is made by Endless Games and is for ages 10 to 110. You will need 3 or more people to play it.

The game includes:

1 Deck of 75 Double-Sided Statement/Photo Cards
100 Answer/Score Sheets
1 Instruction Sheet
4 Pencils
Plus the Storage Box

Object: Score the most points by having the greatest number of responses that match those of the other players.

Playing the Game: Any player draws the top card in the deck and reads the first statement/prompt at the top of the card. All players then secretly write down on their scoring sheet whatever response “comes to mind”. Once everyone has written ONE response, players reveal what they have written. For each response that matches his/her response, the player receives 1 point. (example: If two players have the same response, each receives 1 point). If three players have the same response, they each receive 2 points, etc. Players record points they have earned on their score sheet next to their responses starting at the top and continuing down the sheet throughout the game. Play continues with any player reading aloud the subsequent statement/prompt on the card, until all five statements on the card have been read and the scores recorded.

Image Round: Once all five statements on the card have been completed, all players are shown the image on the other side of the card. As before, players secretly write down on their sheet “what comes to mind”. When the responses are revealed, players receive two points for each matching answer with another player.

Winning the Game: Once three cards have been played and all scores have been recorded, players total their score for all three cards. The player with the most points is the winner.

Example of a Card: One card shows the following on one side: A school supply for a first grader, It’s purple, Major _________, A movie with more than one sequel, A part of a computer. When you flip the card over you see an image of a particular item (that’s the image round as explained above).

We got together for family game time and had the following adults playing the game (age 70, age 57, age 52 and age 36) and one child almost 11 years of age. As you can see…that’s quite an age range and everyone thoroughly enjoyed playing it.

Games like this are simple to play and really get your mind thinking…I like to refer to games like this as “keeping our minds sharp”. It comes in a compact storage box, so it would be a great game to take along with you when you travel for family vacations or take it with you when you go camping this summer. Light-weight, compact and everything you need to play are within the box.
