Players respond to outlandish situations like "Tell someone you've clogged their toilet at a party" with just their limited pool of word magnets, leaving even master wordsmiths no choice but to create awesomely horrendous phrases. With hundreds of word magnets included, every round is always fresh, wildly creative, and tears-streaming-down-your-face funny. WHAT’S INCLUDED: 840 high quality word magnets, 6 metal submission cards, 250 prompt cards, and instructions.

EASY TO LEARN: Learn to play in under one minute, and even the shyest players will be creating laugh-out-loud word magnet responses right away. Just take a few handfuls of word magnets, flip over a prompt card, and start playing — no long instructions to explain! PLAYERS: While the game is made for 3-6 players, it’s equally hilarious when larger groups team up together. 30-90 min play time. Once everyone has read their entry, a judge for the round is randomly chosen, and he decides whose entry is funniest and best, and that person wins the round. Everyone replenishes their word magnets and they play another round. Whoever wins five rounds wins the game.

We also love that the game has infinite possibilities. You can never have a repeat answer to a prompt, and there are also tons of prompt cards. I recommend it 100%." RANSOM NOTES: The game of hilariously terrible sentences! Players use word magnets to respond to outlandish prompts like “Tell someone you’ve clogged their toilet at a party” with just their limited pool of words Once you have finished your submission, you will turn your submission card over so the other players can’t see your response. Presenting Your Response The game lists itself as 17+, and after a thorough inspection, I can see why. Even the most innocuous words can become hilarious and/or twisted around, but they’ve also included a handful of body parts (“butt”, “booty,” “boob,” “ass,” “genital”), activities (“murder,” “sex,” “seduce”), and other words in the magnets that one may or may not want to set aside (“bitchy,” “sexy”). Also about 20 of the prompt cards (less than a sixth) could be considered somewhere on a scale of silly (“Why is cocaine illegal?”) to direct references to sex acts and porn. And one weird Bernie Sanders reference. You can easily remove these and still have a lot of cards to play with. Review Some of the prompt cards mention themes that are a bit adult, i.e. "Where do babies come from?" or "Write a commercial for cocaine." BUT, if you do want to make it entirely family friendly, pulling about 20% of the Prompt Cards should make the game totally PG and playable for all!

Players are constantly engaged in creative, out-of-the-box thinking that makes even the shyest players immediately funny. Turn over the first challenge card, read it aloud to everyone and then frantically begin making your ‘ransom note’ type response. There are a few suggested ways to judge who wins the round but mostly I play with a friendly bunch so we take an honest vote accepting if someone else’s response is genuinely better than our own we vote for it. However, if you are playing with particularly competitive people who will always vote for their own, even if it’s rubbish there are other suggested ways to choose a winner to avoid creating war not peace.Regular readers will know I don’t have a problem with racy humor! There was just a slightly forced, smirky feel to it, and I wish they had just chosen more neutral words, and let the double entendres arise more naturally, because they’re funnier that way. I like deciding when I want to make a dirty joke, rather than getting buffaloed into it because we’re at a party and that’s how you have to act. Possibly I am overstating this issue, because I am a mom who was playing a game with several teenage daughters, and I may have been on high alert. Here’s a selection of cards I drew randomly, to give you an idea of what kind of prompts you might encounter: To determine who will be the judge for the round, spin the bottom of the box which you placed in the middle of the table. Along one of the sides of the box it says “you’re the judge”. The player that is closest to where this side of the box is pointing becomes the judge for the current round. The box has been spun. The player that the “you’re the judge” side is pointing towards, becomes the judge for the current round. Master wordsmiths and "shy" people alike have no choice but to create hilariously awful responses — an equal playing ground for all!

I dearly wish I had taken more pictures, but here are two entries for the prompt “Summarize the Star Wars movies:”WHAT’S INCLUDED: 660 high quality word magnets, 6 metal submission cards, 100 prompt cards, storage bag, and instructions. With tons of absurd prompt cards and a new pool of words every time, this party game has infinite hilarious combinations and feels fresh every time you play This phase of the current round should last around 60-90 seconds. Players can decide whether they want to strictly follow the time limit with a timer, or if they want to be more lenient with it. The winner takes the ransom card and the first person to win 5 cards is the winner. It really is that simple. Components

We played with kids ages 12 and up (younger than the suggested age). In theory, you could play with younger kids, but even though the play is simple, it can be surprisingly mentally taxing (unless some inspiration jumps out at you), and I don’t think younger kids would have understood the point, or had fun with it. The submission cards are made of tin so they’re magnetic, but not too magnetic. Your words won’t get messed up when you make your face-down submission and you won’t spend much time wiping them off when the round is over. After a player wins the current round, it is time to prepare for the next round. Take all of the magnets off each players’ submission card. Return all of these word magnets to the top of the box.Just grab a few word magnets, flip over a prompt card and start playing - no long instructions to explain. The judge will consider all of the submissions and decide which one they think is the best. They can choose any of the submissions including their own. The most fun part is that there is no restriction on how many or few words to use in responses, and the prompts range from straightforward "write a new slogan for Applebee's" to nearly insane complexity for the limited space and vocabulary available: "write a note to explain to the waitress that the bathroom fan is broken". Some ppl squeeze many tiles onto the plate in an attempt to be clear, while others opt for pithy minimalism. Results in both directions are hilariously stilted and creatively vague. Not really. While a majority of prompt cards are certainly suitable for all audiences, there are quite a few that are definitely not. BUT, if you do want to make it family friendly, pulling about 15-30% of the cards should make the game totally PG and playable for all!
