About this item

  • MAKE PARTY GREAT: We have fun game. Help team guess word on card. Catch is, use only one sound. No big words or boom stick hit you! Poetry for Neanderthals is the guessing game that needs you to channel your inner caveman. Speak in single syllables and win points with every correct guess. If you start talking fancy, someone from the opposing team gets to bop you with an inflatable club. Looking for a party game for kids and adults that will have the crowd roaring with laughter? You’ve found it!
  • COMPLETE GAME SET: You’ll have everything you need. Just call your crew, tell them to leave their grammar at the door, and let the games begin. You’ll receive 200 double-sided cards, 2 game boards, and a 2-foot inflatable No! Stick, and 1 sand timer. And we know you’ll get a bit too enthusiastic with the inflated club- it’s hard not to. That’s why we’ve thrown in a repair patch with each of the card games for families. In case anything happens, just patch it up, and keep on guessing.
  • WHOLE FAMILY FUN: Kids will love it. Teens won’t get enough of it. Adults will be scrambling to get their own copy. Meet your new game night staple. Poetry for Neanderthals is great for grownups & kids ages 7+ and accommodates 2-6 players. The more of your primitive family and friends you bring in on the fun, the more knee-slapping hilarity will ensue. Break it out after dinner, on lazy weekends, during picnics, or at work when your boss has gone for that conference.
  • ELEVATE THE EXCITEMENT: It make fun big plus big. Laugh loud plus loud. Pal will greet hand. Tell you praise. Say top day of life …. We’re talking about the Poetry for Neanderthals expansion pack! (And we know we’d get bopped a few times there. We live dangerously) The More Cards Box 1 adds 2,000 new words and phrases. Think you can do better than our Neanderthal brains? We’ve also included 20 blank cards that give you the power to personalize the game.
  • WELCOME TO THE FAMILY: Poetry for Neanderthals is created by the same guys that gave you Exploding Kittens - an idea first launched on Kickstarter. We aimed to raise $10K. We ended up with $8.7M in 30 days from 219,000 backers. Close to a decade later, Exploding Kittens is still the #1 most-backed project in Kickstarter history. We’ve since launched the likes of Throw Throw Burrito, Really Loud Librarians, and more game-night-boosting goodness. Collect them all and brace yourself for epic fun!

Product Description

Poetry for Neanderthals is a family-friendly party game similar to Taboo where players earn points by getting their teammates to guess words and phrases. The catch is that the "Neanderthal Poets" are only allowed to use single syllable words. If they use any words with more than one syllable, the other team gets to bop them with a 2-foot inflatable club. The team with the most points wins!

    5 Stars
    Fun game for everyone!!!
    I spent a week at the beach with 2 other couples and my girlfriend brought this game to the beach so we played this with 6 people all week. This was incredibly fun and challenging. Let me just say if you play this while drinking or stoned, you won’t feel being a human whack a mole. Seriously, it doesn’t hurt and is extremely satisfying to use on someone. Hopefully my friends won’t mind me posting a photo of them!We played this with our 21 and 18 year old sons last night and they even enjoyed it. I’m just wondering why my son insists on using this weird voice too? It cracks me up.I’m thinking after playing this several times, you can also find words online to show the person sitting next to you to mix it up some when you’ve gone through the entire deck and expansion pack.
