Cards Against Humanity delivers big laughs and easy, fast gameplay, according to reviews, and it shines with larger groups that enjoy edgy, NSFW, dark humor and its many expansion packs. Reviews also flag clear caveats: the shock value fades with repeat play unless you add expansions, some prompts feel outdated or offensive for certain audiences, and it’s not a fit for conservative crowds or family gatherings without careful curation.

  • This game is hilarious. I've owned the main box plus three expansions for almost 10 years now. I think I'll break it out again since it's been a while but it will always be one of my favorite easy party games

  • This game at first was super fun. However there is not a lot of replay-ability. I didn’t find this quite as enjoyable as it should be anymore.

    Feedback

    The prompts get outdated quickly.

  • This game was super popular in college. While some cards are pretty funny, it gets old kind of quick. I'd say it is a pretty reliable drinking game that you can buy for pregames with friends, but don't expect to get unlimited usage out of it.

  • Cards Against Humanity is a total crowdpleaser. I find myself reaching for it at pretty much every game night I host. It's easy to learn and great for large groups. It's also fairly portable and doesn't require a lot of pieces, so it's good to take on-the-go.

  • Super fun game to play that doesn't take up too much space. It's nice because you can play this game with a wide variety of people—friends, coworkers, family. And they have extension packs that are more customized.

  • I love a game that it easy to learn! This one definitely will help you learn more about the people you play with.

  • Love these games. They are so creative, and best to plan with many different situations.

  • This is DEFINITELY a game only for adults. And, not adults with delicate sensibilities either. It gets repetitive very quickly without the expansion packs too, which I quickly found myself investing in. There are quite a LOT of expansion packs too, y'all. Not that you need to get them ALL, of course, but the more you want to be able to play, the more necessary more are going to feel to shake things up a bit. And, they'll helpfully sell you a brand new bigger box to store them all in at once too, of course. On the bright side, gameplay is pretty straightforward to have fun with, and it's FANTASTIC for parties. You actually need a good handful of people to really get the real value out of the game anyway, making it pretty much a dinner party staple in our house that otherwise sits untouched. I admittedly have some lingering mixed feelings about this game, since I initially ended up playing it for the first time at a family gathering with my grandma and other family members - and, let me tell you, there is NOT a warning label big enough for that type of introduction. Take it from me and break it out with the spouse/friends for the first time instead so you can be prepared for what's coming the next time around. A+ party game great at making you want to dole out more money though.

  • It does what is says on the tin - it is a fun party game "for horrible people". Not safe for work, kids and family but an unmatched experience when playing with the right group of friends. I am deducting a point for the fact that no matter how much of a game it is, there is high potential for offensive and inappropriate humour and you do need to be careful when playing with a new group of people.

  • Cards Against Humanity is like the holy grail of party games for millennials. It's all about dark humor and spot-on pop culture references that make you snort-laugh. It makes you question your sense of humor in the best way possible!

  • This is legitimately one of the best party games of all time, to the point where I get mad when someone suggests we play something else that isn't as hilarious. The only drawback is that to fully capture the game, you really need to find players with a sense of humor who were not sensitive to being offended.

  • Perfect game for a night with friends! The variety of expansion packs are definitely a plus!

  • One of the best adult games on the market. Witty, irreverent and downright crass at times…..a great time with your friends! Just be careful playing with family😏

  • Such a fun game! I've played so many times with friends. We played a bit too often up front and kind of wore it out, but have come back to playing once and awhile. Absolutely hilarious to play with your parents.

  • This is THE game for fun & connection. It paved the way for other games that revolve around community and conversation. I love what it’s done for game nights!

  • A must for an adult game night! Be prepared for lots of laughs.

  • Fun game with the right group of friends!
