I've never heard of Cards Against Humanity. What are they?
2005419
Cards Against Humanity is like the adult versions of Apples to Apples. One player will pull a black card. It will either ask a question or a fill in the blank. The other players will have 10 white cards and they choose an answer (some black cards will require multiple white cards). The player who chose the black card decides who wins the hand. It's a game where you need to know the other players. To put the right answer down. There are multiple different ways to play it. But that is the primary way to play it. The original box comes with a packet with different ways to play it. Look up videos on YouTube to learn more (Smosh Games, PewDiePie, etc have funny videos on the game).

It is classical canasta (a great card game) but has some functional cards (like bonus cards, stops, etc.) rather than having to remember what traditional cards are associated with the function. You can play it standard or "caliente" which gives you the capability to replenish your cards with additional cards when you have a "caliente card". We have been playing it with our grandsons - starting several years ago when one was 11 and the other 8 and we still do today with them at 13 and 10.

No, I received 4 different cards. I was told that a new card comes out every year. You should email Kim Powell at Marvelous Mah Jongg and she will help you. I know nothing about this game. I bought the set for a friend.

I think all three of your kids would still enjoy it. There aren't many overly complicated cards (the only ones I can think of that are crazy are Chaos cards, and those are optional anyway). The game itself is quite random and appropriate for all ages - no swearing, etc. The game keeps everyone on their toes so they honestly could do very well.

You just nailed it.It's an easy learning game. Very funny and is a fine transition between non complex and complex games. Buy it and enjoy it! Its an excellent cardgame

Ummm...there are attack cards and cards that let you steal cards from other players. There's no trading but attacking and stealing.

No random cards, this is an expandable game not collectible. Every base set has the same basic cards you need to play, and each expansion adds more choice, but it is a set, not randomly distributed.

It is not. There are several variations to the game itself, but my husband and friends just play regular Canasta with these cards. They just add color and fun!

No, because this is meant only as an expansion to Cards Against Humanity. It is not a stand-alone game. When you buy Cards Against Humanity, it comes with instructions.

You couldn't get it for $5. If you read the description closely, it said "From Cards Against Humanity LLC: BLACK FRIDAY BLOWOUT SALE! Today only, all Cards Against Humanity products are $5 more! Drop the turkey leg, get out your wallet, and get in on this once-in-a-lifetime deal!" The key word that you overlooked was MORE. On Black Friday, all CAH products were $5 MORE. It was rather ingenious on their part. I wonder how many people overlooked that word and bought it for $15 when they could have waited a day and paid $10.

The original game starts you off with more cards so the game can last longer if you play with more people. I play with a lot of people and if you just get the small deck the game won't last more than a few rounds

You might could use the cards as a match game of some kind, but otherwise I don't think it would work for solitaire.

They are very small. Shorter than a business card but wider.Your only looking for colors so its not a big deal. Great game!

There is nothing in the game that I or my family has taken that way. There are some cards that are more of a mature joke that kids would not get. Some examples are a Broad Sword that only females can use, Crabs as a monster where you discard armor and all items worn below the waist, a Horny Helmet (elf with a helmet with big horns) and snails on speed. There is a 'curse change sex card' which my 8 year old thinks is funny unless he is the one changed to a girl. We only have the first set, so there might be something in one of the other sets.

Honestly its not scary. I guess it could be a little scary reading the descriptions of the cards. (there are 'scary' events that happen and there are slight descriptions) Maybe the scenarios could be a little scary, again it would be the descriptions like vampires, zombies, ect. This is just from my prespective, and Im 20. Amazing game though.

I honestly don't know. Its my 14 year old nephew's favorite game and I was the best aunt for finding it for him. I've never played though.

It's a stand alone game. You can mix it into other cards if you like, but you can pull this right out of the box and play it as is.
