    That’s just Apples to Apples

      At this point in my life, every person with whom I’ve played this game has died.

      It seems like that would be unlikely, but probably best not to tempt fate.

        There’s an apple a day joke there somewhere.

          Apparently, the idiom was created by the funeral industry, not unlike the “tradition” of diamond wedding rings, etc.

            a whole apple a day causes a buildup of cyanide, killing you early and thus creating more demand for coffins

        You aren’t supposed to use the cards as a template!

      Ive played this version with my nephews before. You can still be raunchy, but you’ve got to be a bit more creative with innuendo.

      I’ve only played apples to apples once and nobody was interested in being funny. They always picked the best match, not the card that was funniest.

          You mean asking the game to create a lie for you because you’re so terrible at improvising is not the right way to play? Phew!

      It’s a pretty good introduction for those who don’t care for swearing and sexual jokes. Better than Apples to Apples, I’d say. Could use room for improvement, I’ve been meaning to put together a combination of the full game and expansions that my whole family can play

      Oh man. I wish I knew about this before I bough CAH. That looks way more fun with the artwork.

        If you want a similar minded game but a different thematic an genre, try Munchkin.

        It’s a really good card game with goofy things like a weapon called Swiss Halberd (yes, it’s like a Swiss knife but pole arms), or the monster “Amazon” which do not attack female characters, or the “Whine at the GM”, which gets you a free level.

        If you have a small group of friends to play with, it’s a blast.

      They each have their place imo, but I’d agree that A2A can definitely require more creativity and two people being on the same wavelength rather than CAH where the cards do almost all of the heavy lifting.

      I’ve always thought the same. Apples to apples you have to be a little creative. Cards against humanity is like playing a shooter with an aimbot.

      But you gotta take out all the utter shit cards. The game is so much fun with a tenth of the proper noun cards.

    I assume this is a version of Apples To Apples that’s just loaded with innuendo and double entendres? Because if so, that’s hilarious and I need a copy.
