F**K The Game

F**K The Game

Yellow. Orange. P*ssy. Purple. Sh*t. Green…no wait…f**k!! That’s a short excerpt from a typical round of f**k The Game – the party card game that combines colours and swear words with good old-fashioned psychological mind-f*ckery. Here’s how to play: Players take turns to flip over a card and yell out what they see. Depending on the nature of the card, you might have to say the background colour, the text colour or a swear word. You keep turning cards over and shouting until someone f*cks up and picks up the pile. The winner is the first player to get rid of all their cards. It sounds relatively straightforward, but the cards employ a psychological phenomenon known as the ‘Stroop effect’. In short, it massively messes with your head and slows down your brain’s responses. No matter how quick-witted you think you are, this game will catch you out. There are three extended instructions cards so once you’ve mastered the basics you can take the game to the next level by introducing a whole host of new rules – you can even create your own.
