Poetry for Neanderthals is a word-guessing party game where players must describe words or phrases using only single-syllable sounds. If a player uses complex language, opponents can lightly bop them with the included inflatable club. The game includes 200 double-sided cards, 2 game boards, a 2-foot inflatable No! Stick, a sand timer, and a repair patch for the club. Designed for 2-6 players ages 7 and up, it works for family game nights or casual gatherings.
An expansion pack, More Cards Box 1, adds 2,000 new words and phrases along with 20 blank cards for customization. The game is from the creators of Exploding Kittens, which holds the record for the most-backed Kickstarter project with $8.7 million raised from 219,000 backers. Their portfolio also includes Throw Throw Burrito and Really Loud Librarians.
Things to Keep in MindConcerns have been raised regarding the game's 'bopping' mechanic, with some players finding it inappropriate for children. Additionally, certain versions or card content have been described as overly vulgar, and there are reports of missing game components in new sets coupled with unsatisfactory customer service. Why You'll Like ItThe game is widely praised as being fun, unique, and challenging, frequently leading to laughter and enjoyable experiences for families and various group sizes.
