Is there any kind of theme for each of the expansion packs or are they random (hilarious) stuff?

It is all random stuff. Just like the main game. They are just as funny too.

Random, and there are blank cards included with each to write your own cards.

Random. There are a few that you can tell were on the same brain path, but overall they are random. I do know that they sometimes release limited edition stuff though that follow themes, like last christmas they had a christmas expansion, and they are selling the 'Box' on their website with cards about boxes. If you're interested in theme stuff, my advice is to check some of the unofficial custom card communities and sign up for their email list on their website.

They're all random stuff, except for the Holiday expansions- they're Christmas/Hanukkah/New Year's-themed.

As far as I can tell, the regular expansion packs are just random hilarious stuff. The bigger blacker box has a hidden card in it. There are also cards in that box that have a box theme.

They are random......and a little more obscure and not as independently funny. I recommend inviting guests that are up on current events

Tons, the game play changes each time that you use a new character and shuffle the adventure cards. Likewise, different players use different game play strategies so who you play with will also change the game. There are also many expansion packs that create even more chaos....I mean fun...

Yes, you need the original, because the expansion packs are simply an addition. Each expansion pack provides more crazy question/answer options for your continued amusement with this game.

No...the faction expansion is seperate and gives u another colour...the packs just offer a few new cards.I have the base game the faction expansion and the asteroid belt and i feel that gives me enough variety for this game...If u like this game u may also like Euphoria castles of burgundy and roll for the galaxy that have dice mechanics as well.

You can place everything from all of the previous expansion and core game. The only things that don't fit are the cure vials because the "In The Lab" has larger plastic vials that replace the small wooden tokens. I took photos and posted them so you should be able to see how I organized it all in one box. Go to the product page scroll down to view customer images.

It includes the expansion paks "Gods & Kings" and"Brave New World", which is the latest expansion pak. The DLC, if that's the version you bought, or the registration code, is on the back cover of the manual. The Manual itself is incomplete, however, the expansion pak manuals are available as an PDF download.

I'd say to buy them all, either get them all at once or as you start to remember certain cards which would diminish the fun. One pack doesn't stand out as anything special but the game itself it a good time by all.

I think I have the second edition Plus the factions expansion I think they are out with a fourth edition this year and a new expansion is coming out DEC this year. I don't think the faction expansion is worth it I hardly ever play it. If you need more info go to www.boardgamegeek.com

We bought the 5-6 player extension. It comes with many things: 11 terrain hexes (the parts that make up the bottom of the board, desert, forest, etc), 2 fram piees with harbors, 2 all-sea fram pieces, 2 extra harbor pieces, 2 sets of wooden playing pieces (10 settlements {5 of each of the 2 colors}, 8 cities { 4 of each of the 2 colors}, 30 roads {15 each of the 2 colors}), 25 resource cards, 9 development cards, 28 circular numbered tokens (chits). Hope this helps :)

The monsters are the same in the base game. The expansion gives each monster a set of unique evolution cards.

No, they are separate add-ons that add additional cards and mini boards on top of what you get in "Factions". Factions is the first large expansion, and the Faction packs are mini-expansions.

Not really sure, I only played the original game. The expansion was a gift for someone else.

I purchased the expansion packs 1 through 5 at Christmas time. They were a big hit! :-)

GOD READ A BOOK LANA!!!On a serious note, you're missing that the point of this game and its marketing is to be funny. First expansion pack, "40% more brand synergy." Second expansion pack, "Now dolphin safe." It's just stuff they add to the description to make it funnier.

Numerical seems like a good approach(1 then 2 and so on). The expansions contain no content that requires a previous expansion. There are 'themed' expansions that do not have a number but are associated with time period or some such thing ( I bought the 90's expansion and the first two 'regular'). So there is no real order required, any set will mix well with the original edition.

Nah, you don't NEED to start with any particular expansion pack, although it is much more enjoyable if you start with the first large box. Just simple Cards Against Humanity, rather than just getting small expansion packs.

There aren't enough cards in the expansion pack to play with. I recommend you buy the original game and get the expansions as you can.
