About the game
All the answers are in twos! In Such & Such, teams try to solve a set of five clues. All of the answers are things that go together. For example, “The two youngest Brady kids” (answer: Bobby and Cindy); coffee complements (answer: cream and sugar); and motto of The Three Musketeers (answer: All for one and one for all). To play, one team member reads five clues to his teammates, who then have 40 seconds to solve them. Teammates may pass but will not be allowed to return to the clue. When time runs out, the opposing team has the chance to steal any passed clues and any clues that were not answered before time ran out. The first team to reach 25 points wins. Such & Such is for four or more players who play in teams. Ages 10 and up.

Such & Such supports 4–10 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Such & Such is 40 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Such & Such for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone.
