Lol I love the way you commented this! Way to keep the neanderthal tyong going! 🤣❤

Yes 🙌

Your comment funny.

Rule manual: not allowed to speak in other languages Non-English speakers who bought the game: cries in *another language*

[@gustukas]

The Lithuanian version says that you can speak in 1 or 2 syllables.. That's probably because we don't have that many words with 1 syllable 😅

[@OcnrBo42]

They will get smacked for even thinking about crying in another language

[@PajanAlt]

*cry in not same talk style

[@TetrisRules43]

There are different language versions.

[@viadagostino2060]

I just played this game with some friends and we have a question! One person was trying to get their team to say the word “balloon” and used the word “birthday” as part of their clue. However, they said it as “birth …. day” so it was two one-syllable words. The group couldn’t decide if that should be allowable or not. What do you think? Snow…man? Dough…nut? If it’s a compound word, can it be broken apart? (My vote is you can say “day of birth” but not “birth…day”.)

[@tjhall9377]

Birthday is a compound 2 syllable word, if I were the judge it would not be allowed.

[@The_Moth1]

@@tjhall9377but could you break it up?

[@bblake4683]

That we call "cheat" You can say part of the 3 point word if they guess it! Big cheat!

[@Shadowknightneo]

No, compound words are called compound words because they compound together when they're next to each other. Imagine if you went into a shop and saw a card with the words Happy Birth Day it would look very weird to you

[@djangel3108]

I'd say compound words as "X of Y" so Birthday I'd say Neanderthal-style as "Day of Birth"

[@tammy9564]

I am just watching this for the little jokes and animations. I have the game aswell and really enjoy it sofar :)

[@miriamschiro8585]

How do you play with just 3 ppl? I really do not understand how to play

[@tammy9564]

@@miriamschiro8585 you have 1 person with the stick, one with the cards and one guesser. if the guesser has it wrong he gets hit and goes to the next card until time if up then you move the tasks to the next person. so if A has stick, B has cards and C guesses, you move the stick to B, cards to C and let A guess until everyone had a turn to fulfill each role. Then you count the points, thats it

[@miriamschiro8585]

@@tammy9564 thank you for your response. I thought the guesser guess until the sand timer runs out 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@miriamschiro8585]

@@tammy9564 wait also it’s my understanding that the Poet gets hit for saying the clue wrong NOT the guesser

I got this game today and its SO FUN its AWESOME i recomend it BEST GAME EVER

[@Charnold_Hoopscotch]

Trying to find some information about one part of the rules but I cannot find it anywhere. What do you do with the current card when the timer runs out? Is it just discarded immediately? Does the team get to finish guessing that 1 card before the round ends? Does it count as a -1 "Oops"?

[@foxbear60]

Commenting in order to get the answer; I may be getting this game soon, so any rule clarification is appreciated. :)

[@Charnold_Hoopscotch]

@@foxbear60 I still haven't found a concrete answer but we've just been discarding the cards at this point. Running out of time is bound to happen, so it doesn't feel right to add it it the -1 "Oops" since there is no rule breaking happening. Also doesn't feel fair to allow the team to finish since time ran out.

[@foxbear60]

@@Charnold_Hoopscotch - This seems like what was likely intended. Some other games with a structure allow the opposing team one guess to steal, but I feel like that rule would've been pretty clearly written. Tossing seems most appropriate.

[@tammy9564]

timer always runs out so its pointless to give every team a -1 so just discard it

[@EightThreeEight]

My interpretation is that if your team hasn't got the 1-point word yet when the time runs out, you just discard the card.

[@BobPaul]

Weird... this video is in English, but KZbin assumed Vietnamese when it autogenerated subtitles. If you choose English it translates from Vietnamese. Needless to say, the closed captions are gibberish.

[@The_Moth1]

If you translate from Ukrainian it makes a bit more sense

[@miriamschiro8585]

I got this game and don’t understand how to play with 3 players so tempted to return it

[@jenericjoe7565]

I've never played with 3 players, but you could just do it so that each player is a 'team' with the person next to them so that each player is a part of 2 teams and play the game with 3 'teams' instead. Where 1 player is the poet, 1 player has the no stick, and 1 player is guessing. After a round (or more) you can then see who has the most points between pairs. I figured making 'teams' of 2 where a player is part of 2 teams - once as a poet and once as a guesser, makes sure that a player isn't tempted to perform poorly to sabotage another player's points. Edit: If there are 3 people called A, B and C, the teams would be: A as poet; B as guesser, then B as poet; C as guesser, then C as poet; A as guesser.

[@Mr.Yeast2]

In the rulebook it says if you Skip, you put that card on the 1-point slate of the other team, so which one is it? 😅 I know it comes down to the same thing, but still.

[@noahbrown8117]

I've seen alot of people play this game. Can you say the word ' The' ? I never see anyone say it when playing, and in this video they didn't use it either. So I wanted to ask

[@amyhoeksema9850]

It's one syllable so yes, you can say "the." I think they leave it out on purpose in videos to give it more neanderthal realism. XD

[@meme-ix9133]

What do you do with the grok words of love and sad

[@unfilteredreview2020]

Wondering the same thing!

[@conlandavis3619]

At the end of the game the winning team picks three poetry cards and picks a grok’s words of love and sad card at random and fills it in the the three poetry cards and reads it thenThe losing team decides whether they want to hit them or not based on how good it was
