About the game
Time's Up Deluxe is the tenth anniversary edition of one of the most popular party games for gamers! This is a brand new edition, with the best of the cards from the base set and the two expansions (525 cards), a whole bunch of new cards, and best of all, a very handy new electronic timer. Time's Up! is a party game for teams of two or more players (best with teams of two). The same set of famous names is used for each of three rounds. In each round, one member of a team tries to get his teammates to guess as many names as possible in 30 seconds. In round one, almost any kind of clue is allowed. In round two, no more than one word can be used in each clue (but unlimited sounds and gestures are permitted). In round three, no words are allowed at all. Includes rules for an odd number of players as well as an optional fourth round.

Questions and answers
Time's Up! Deluxe supports 4–18 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 Time's Up! Deluxe is 60 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 Time's Up! Deluxe for ages 13 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Time's Up! Deluxe has a complexity rating of 1.3 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
