This guide will break down the rules of this hilariously inappropriate party game, ensuring a night of laughter (and maybe a little blushing). Get ready to unleash your inner comedian!
Cards Against Humanity is designed to be easy to pick up, but sometimes a refresher is needed, or you’re introducing it to new players. Lets remove any confusion so you can focus on what truly matters: crafting the most outrageous and side-splitting combinations possible. Onward to gameplay!
Decoding the Cards Against Humanity Instructions
The core gameplay revolves around two types of cards: black cards and white cards. The black cards feature a question or a fill-in-the-blank statement. Each player holds a hand of ten white cards, each containing a (usually absurd) answer. The goal? To create the funniest combination, judged by the Card Czar for that round.
One player starts as the Card Czar, reading the black card aloud. The other players then secretly submit one or more white cards (depending on how many blanks are on the black card) face down. The Card Czar shuffles the submissions to maintain anonymity and reads each combination aloud, choosing the funniest one.
The player who submitted the winning white card(s) wins the round and gets to keep the black card as a point. The role of Card Czar rotates to the next player, and everyone draws back up to ten white cards. Play continues until everyones had a chance to be Card Czar multiple times, or until you decide to quit maybe from laughter fatigue!
Some black cards have a “Pick 2” or even “Pick 3” designation. This means you need to play that many white cards to fill in the blanks. Don’t overthink it; just go with your gut and pick the cards that tickle your funny bone the most! This often leads to the most unexpected and humorous outcomes.
There are also some optional rules you can incorporate to spice things up. For example, “House Rules” allow players to create their own unique rules. “God is Dead” is a variant where everyone submits a white card each round, and the Card Czar chooses their favorite. Experiment and find what works best for your group!
Now that you’re armed with the knowledge of the Cards Against Humanity instructions, gather your friends, shuffle the deck, and prepare for an evening of uproarious fun! Remember, the goal is to laugh and create memorable moments. So, embrace the absurdity, let your wit shine, and enjoy the game!
