What It Is
Poetry for Neanderthals is a unique, family-friendly party game that brings a prehistoric twist to the classic game format. It is a team-based game where players strive to make their teammates guess words and phrases. The fun catch is that players, or as the game calls them “Neanderthal Poets”, can only use single-syllable words. The use of any multi-syllable words will result in a hilarious bopping with a 2-foot inflatable club by the opposing team. The team that accumulates the most points takes home the victory.
Why We Love It
This game is not just about winning; it’s about the laughter and fun that ensues throughout the play. Its blend of wordplay and slapstick humor, brought to you by the creators of Exploding Kittens and the mind behind The Oatmeal, makes it an ultimate crowd-pleaser. Moreover, its easy-to-learn rules and engaging gameplay make it a preferred choice for top board games for teens, adults, and family gatherings.
