Great game!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was an extremely fun game to play, even keeping my 4 teenagers happily involved. It’s a great family game that is quick and easy to learn and hilarious as you play. I don’t think you can go wrong with this game!

Pretty good game but not for someone 45+

Pretty good game. Though I feel like it's more fun with a group of at least 4 people so it can be played as a team-vs-team kind of game. Also, I don't feel like this game was meant for those over 45 as a lot of the cards said things my mother didn't understand and she didn't understand the info in the rule booklet

Simple Yet Super Fun

Bought this for my 19 year old as a stocking stuffer. He had a few friends come over our house on New Year’s Eve. They had a ball playing that game. There were screaming and hitting ( all in fun I assure you). Fast paced so never a dull moment. Would highly recommend it.

Interesting Game

Thought this would be a fun game to play on game night. The kids loved the no stick. My youngest did not like the actual game at all just the no stick. My oldest loved it though. It was different. Not sure how much we will play it. But I would still recommend it.

Fun game for all ages!

My kids love this game. I've also played it with adult friends, and on girls night, so we had lots of laughs. You basically have to get someone to guess the word on the card, by only using one syllable words, and if you mess up, you get hit with the inflatable club. Lots of fun!

Poetry for Neanderthals by Exploding kittens

I received this game for free from Sam’s Club to review. This is a very fun game and the rules aren’t complicated. It says you can play with 2+ players but I don’t understand how you would do that since you need teams. We played with two teams and 2 players on each. You have to get your team to say the word on your card using only 1 syllable words. If you use a word with more than one syllable the other team gets to hit you with the inflatable stick. It’s a fun game!

Great game! Horrible Bat

We love this game but from the first second we played the game, the bat started leaking air. The game comes with a patch, but it is leaking from the seam where you cannot patch. Now, we have to reinflate the bat every other turn and it's really annoying. Of course you can play without a bat, but the bat really adds to the fun of the game. I wish there was a way to get a replacement bat, because then I would change this review to 5 stars.

Hilariously fun game

Sat around the table with family playing this game and had just a side busting good time. The concept of having to use one syllable words to try to describe a word for your team to guess correctly. And the inflatable club bonking your opponents on the head for slipping up and using two syllable words or saying the word. It's an incredibly fun game that I would highly recommend to anyone to play.

Good fun for many ages!

I bought this for our vacation this year. We used it several times, and it was a lot of fun for a wide variety of ages. The blow-up club didn't last very long (not too surprising, but disappointing anyway.) We didn't abuse it or anything, and it lasted only a few hours before it sprung a leak.
