    Anyone here played before?

    For the uninitiated, it's basically Apples to Apples but way more inappropriate and hilarious. Or a Mad Libs where you pull all the answers from urban dictionary. One of the best party games I've ever played. It got off the ground via Kickstarter, and has pretty much sold out instantly every time it's gone on sale previously. There's a new batch in stock at Amazon for $25, with the 2 expansions in stock for $10 apiece. I believe that the price only covers their overhead in printing card stock, they actually let you print out a set of cards from their website free of charge if you're a cheapskate or have access to a commercial-quality card printer.

    Great gift idea if you're shopping for someone who can take a joke.

    It's a hit and miss game. It really depends what cards you get and how in tune with your friends you are. There are times I play and with some people I keep thinking to myself "that wasn't even closed to funny" while other people may make me piss my pants with laughter. The last two times I played I just got a string of cards that didn't fit the categories and it just wasn't fun.

    I have the game. The one time we played it it was a blast. But yeah, you have to be careful with who you play with.

    Thanks, HI Mana. Going to a party Friday with a group that would be PERFECT for a game like this, and just ordered the whole set. Looks like a blast. Repped.

    Takes a certain group for this game to work to it's potential.

    Not sure if it's a good or bad thing, but I didn't even know what some of the cards meant.

    For instance: Smegma

    my friends love this game. not only did i get my card picked for the very first time this weekend, but i actually won with 5 black cards!

    it's true that you can't play with people who are easily offended. when you play with the right group and there's alcohol involved, it's a blast. the dirtier your mind, the better.

    Ordered this a few weeks ago but haven't played it yet. Looking forward to trying it out over Christmas with the family. Should be interesting based on the comments here.
