Something is out there . . . Something terrifying that must not be seen. One glimpse and a person...

Very funny and unique cards

As many players as you like

Fun party game

Instructions could be clearer (0 more)

This is a very funny card game to play with friends/family who have a rude/silly sense of humour. You can play with as many people as you wish, and the more people you play with the more funny stories you make up. There are many different cards and different types of card (Action/Person/Object) so you can make a lot of unique combinations to make each other laugh. There are several different game modes you can try and even a drinking game.

I have only played a couple rounds of the normal game mode of this so far where one deck acts as your "base" cards and then you get 5 cards of each of the other decks. With your 10 cards you have to make a story including your base card from the pile you have selected. The base card is your starting point and can be anywhere within the story you create (beginning/middle/end). You can play as little or many cards as you like to make your story (10 Max) and the goal is to make your selected person laugh more than anyone else. Your selected person for that round chooses the winner out of everyone's stories and then they win the base card which acts as a point, and then you replace your used cards with new ones and the next person selected chooses the winner out of the next round. That is just one game mode and there are more that you can try out.

The only cons with this is that the instructions are not the clearest to understand, but once you figure it out and get used to it you can have plenty of fun with this game. And also even though there are decent sized decks to play with, if you have a few people playing you can go through the cards very quickly and then you could get the same cards over and over again, which isn't a problem but I hope the release new expansion packs in the future so you can get some new cards you haven't seen before.

** This is a very fun party game but it can also be offensive, rude and vulgar so it is best played with people of a certain kind of humour who will not get upset at the topics in this game.

I didn't get a chance to see this in cinema but I bought the DVD for this as soon as it was released as I was really excited for it. It was a very good movie and I really liked it. It was funny and the actors did a great job. I find the plot very interesting and I can't wait to see what happens in part 2. The only thing is I didn't find it very scary, not sure if it's just me, but I found more parts funny than scary in this one. Hopefully the next one is a bit scarier as well as just as good and funny.

Jodie Barker (70 KP) rated Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 in Video Games

Nov 19, 2018

I have been playing COD for years and my favourites have always been the black ops games. This one is probably my least favourite of the bunch to be honest. It is still a good game, but I wish that a couple things were different with it. I would have liked a proper campaign story rather than the character playthroughs/backstories etc. Blackout was entertaining for a couple days but I soon got bored of that. I do enjoy the zombies and I like the titanic map the best (Always hoping they'll do another Kino Der Toten on this game too though). I do like multiplayer too and I like that they have bought back some of the old maps such as summit and firing range, also excited for the new nuketown map. Overall it is a good game but not as good as the others
