Hues and Cues is a vibrant party game of colourful communication where the challenge is deceptively simple: give a one- or two-word clue that points other players to a specific shade on a board of 480 colours. What hue comes to mind when you hear "apple"? Or "midnight"? Or "Brussels sprouts"? Since everyone imagines colours differently, even the most confident clue can send your friends in wildly different directions.
On your turn as the cue giver, you secretly draw a card showing a target colour and give a one-word clue. Everyone places their marker where they think it is. Then you give a second, two-word clue — and they can adjust. The closer the guesses land to the bullseye, the more points everyone scores. It's fast, funny, and endlessly surprising, with 480 shades ensuring no two games ever feel the same.
What's good?
- 480 colours on the board — an enormous range that keeps every game fresh
- Plays with 3 to 10 people and is easy to pick up in minutes
- Sparks brilliant arguments about whether "coffee" is dark brown or milky beige
- Award-winning design from Scott Brady — simple rules, surprisingly deep fun
- Great for families, parties, and anyone who thinks they know their colours
Who is it for?
- ✔ Fans of word and communication games like Codenames or Wavelength
- ✔ Families and groups looking for something quick, inclusive, and laugh-out-loud fun
- ✔ Anyone who loves colour, design, or just arguing about shades of green
- ✖ Players looking for a complex strategy game — this is light and breezy by design

from 19 reviewsExcellent service and packaging. Thank you, would recommend.
Great service as always!
Had a great experience with Life of Games. I got in touch with a bit of a request around my order and they were super quick to reply and really helpful.
They went out of their way to sort things for me, no hassle at all, and everything was handled quickly and smoothly. Just really nice, friendly service from start to finish.
Always good to find a shop that actually cares about its customers. Would definitely order from them again 👍
Great experience.
Customer support was outstanding, package arrived quickly and effectively
Century Golem edition is a resin of Century Spice road and as such is identical in game play. For me the brighter art work, beautiful artwork and clever box insert elevate the experience. Very enjoyable resource management/tableau builder game.
Great price. Swift despatch. Nicely packed. What's not to like?
