## 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! This hilarious and engaging game is perfect for those looking for top board games for teens and board games for adults and family gatherings.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: If I lose the inflatable club, would it be safe to replace it with a real club, truncheon, or large stick for game use?**
A: I would only recommend a real club if you first equip it with spikes.  Games with consequences keep everyone on their feet!

**Q: Is the club a suitable improvised self-defense implement in emergencies?**
A: Absolutely not! The club is inflatable, and would not be useful as a weapon at all.

**Q: We can’t blow up the “No” stick. Any suggestions?**
A: We're so sorry to hear that! Please email support@explodingkittens.com so we can get you a replacement inflatable No Stick right away.

**Q: Can three people play this game?**
A: Three people could play but one person would have to play on both teams. It works best with 4 or more.
