Poetry for Neanderthals

Use small words. Make big laughs.

Poetry for Neanderthals is a family-friendly party word game where players try to get their team to guess words and phrases using only single-syllable clues. Say a word with too many syllables and another player gets to bonk you with the inflatable NO! Stick.

It is easy to learn, quick to play, and works well for families, parties, game nights, and groups who want something silly without a long rules explanation.
