| Like many others customers, I am very disappointed with this product. It seems to have malfunction or something else, because to play properly, I have to re-insert the disc 9 or 10 times! It's such a shame... I am probably the biggest Friends fan in France :)) and I hoped that this software could last a little bit more my favorite TV show... |

I am a Friends fan and I really enjoyed this game. The questions vary in difficulty, and the narration by the characters is a nice feature.
Regarding the issues with the keyboard, the keys for each player are indeed very close together. Also, when two players can answer the same question at the same time, it's easy to press the wrong key by mistake. But I guess in time you can get used to the keys.
I didn't have a problem installing the game, although I have a CD recorder and recording software installed. I didn't choose the full instalation, since the CD has to be in the drive anyway, but the game runs properly, it didn't seem to freeze when reading from the CD.
Compared to SceneIt, it's very different. This is a complete trivia game that keeps score and announces the winner. SceneIt is a board game, and the DVD is used to ask questions, and in order to play it as a trivia game you need to keep score with paper and pen. |

The game disk does not run on my laptop. But it will play it on my desktop computer. Very annoying, but at least I can play (other reviewers have not been so lucky).
The game has some good questions and I enjoy testing my Friends knowledge. The game itself is rather simple and not totally fun. The "game board" is the outside of the Friends' apartment building. When you get a question right a window lights up. When you get one wrong a window dims. If you don't answer the question nothing happens. You win when all the windows on that floor are lit up. I would prefer that they make you answer all questions- none of this passing on a question- it would up the ante and perhaps add some excitement.
If you play a multi-player game you cannot select which letter is your buzzer and the letters assigned by the game designers are adjacent keys on the keyboard! It's silly for the two players to be huddled together, hovering over the same part of the keyboard when the designers could have selected other letter keys set further apart.
There are SOME video clips and still images accompanying the questions, but it's mostly a trivia game without visual aids or embellishments. Think Trivial Pursuit with a computer screen as the cards.
This game was a gift. If I had to do it over again I'd probably spend my money instead on Scene It! Friends Edition. As of right now, Scene It! Friends Edition is on sale at Circuit City for the same price as this game is on Amazon. (And though I haven't played it, the reviews of that game are much better than this one). |

| This is an item that I purchased from Amazon.com that I am not satisfied with. I cannot install the game on my computer to play it. I had a relative try to install it on her computer and she also could not install it to play. She believes that it could be a damaged disk, and that I should pursue getting a refund or replacing it with another copy. I hope you can help me with this. Thank you for your support.

| I am extremely unhappy with this product. It is defective. I gave it as a Christmas gift to my daughter and was very disappointed to learn that it does not work. |
