Exploding Kittens Poetry for Neanderthals NSFW Edition Card Games for Adults and Teens- Fun Party Games

Product Information

If the Poet thinks that they were penalized incorrectly, they will shout out “Wait!”. The timer is set down on its side to temporarily stop it. All of the players will then decide as a group whether the punishment is valid for what happened in the game. The players will deal with the Poetry Card in a way agreed to by the players. During the round the Poet is trying to get their teammates to guess as many words/phrases from the Poetry cards as possible. Describing the Word/Phrase Once the Poet starts describing the word/phrase, their teammates can start yelling out answers. There is no penalty for incorrect guesses, so you should try to yell out as many answers as possible. The words/phrases can be multiple syllables, so there is no punishment if a teammate says a multi-syllable word. The Poet will describe their chosen word/phrase to their teammate. They can describe it in any way they want, but they need to follow a few rules.

That’s about the extent of the rules – take turns, give clues, get bonked on the head by an inflatable club, repeat. But while the game is beautiful when it works – teammates getting on the right wavelength, clues given in seamless caveman prose – the real joy of Poetry for Neanderthals comes when things go wrong. Saying a word on the card? Bonk! Giving solid clues, but nobody getting it, so you – in frustration – resort to saying “inside” or “toilet” in frustration? Bonk! And the game goes on.Divide the players into two teams (Team Glad and Team Mad). You should divide the players as equally as possible. If there is an odd number of players, the extra player becomes the judge for the game. Exploding Kittens also uses its physical card games as a trial for testing ideas of games that could eventually become global digital games, and so the innovation that it shows in its physical games can eventually affect the digital market.

The objective of Poetry for Neanderthals is to score more points than your opponents by successfully getting your teammates to guess words while only giving them one syllable clues. Setup for Poetry for Neanderthals Both players are on the same team and switch off being the Poet. Play with a single Point Slate. Any cards you skip count as -1 point. After each player has been the Poet three times, add up your points:

You may not say a word or part of a word that appears on the current Poetry card. The one exception to this is if one of your teammates say it first. Once one of your teammates says the word (even if it is more than one syllable), the Poet is then allowed to say the word themselves. Whilst we will do everything we can to meet the delivery times above, there may be factors outside of our control and we cannot guarantee delivery within this time frame. The Poet also chooses which side of the cards (gray or orange) that the players will use during the game. All of the players will use this side of the card for the entire game.

The No! Stick

Lee said that manufacturing the game during the pandemic has been extremely difficult. As demand grew, the company learned that its factories were a single point of failure, because they were inside China. While the Poet is describing the word/phrase with one syllable words, one of their opponents sitting next to them is in charge of making sure that they aren’t breaking any of the rules listed above. Best friends bring Grok joy. Grok want Stonehenge too. Grok must have it all. Only Silent will not do. Once you have a poet the timer is turned and they the poet starts giving clues to their team. The catch being that you can only use one syllable words - you are a cave person after all! If you use a word of more than one syllable the other teams can club you with the inflatable ‘NO’ club and you will lose points. You are allowed to say correct words once your team has said them though. So if the clue was sore eye and your team said ‘eye’ you could then start saying it too.
