Apples to Apples Party Box

Someone plays a green card. Everyone else has to decide which red card makes the most sense. Or the funniest sense. Or the most questionable sense. Then one person gets to judge the whole thing. Apples to Apples is easy to teach, works especially well with a crowd, and tends to reveal some interesting things about how your friends think.

  • 30 min to play

WHY RENT THIS ONE

Why it's worth a spot on your weekend

“The right answer is whatever makes everyone laugh.”

This is the game to grab when you have a crowd and nobody wants to spend twenty minutes explaining the rules.

One person judges the round. Everyone else plays the card they think best matches the prompt. Then comes the important part: convincing the judge that your answer is the obvious choice. Sometimes it is clever. Sometimes it is hilarious. Sometimes it makes absolutely no sense to anyone except the person who played it.

Apples to Apples is perfect for family reunions, multi-family weekends, birthday gatherings, and groups with different ages and gaming experience. You can play with a big group, jump in and out, and keep the conversation going even when it is not your turn. It is less about winning and more about discovering exactly how weirdly your friends and family think.
