Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com Product Description
The concept of Apples to Apples is pretty easy: match the adjective card on the table with a noun or verb card from your hand. But that's only the tip of the iceberg. Watch hilarity ensue as players match terms like "Fluffy" to "Mildew" or "Sticky" to "Horror film." While it may be limited by the hand of cards you're dealt (what if you don't have a perfect match for "Harry Truman"?), there is some strategy to the game. Each round of card matching is judged by a different player at the table. So you can use it to your advantage to play a card that you know is a shoo-in for certain judges.

Apples to Apples cards
Use the red cards in your hand to make hilarious matches to the green card on the table.
When someone wins a round, they place that Green Apple card in front of them on the table. This, effectively, is the point tracking system and eliminates the need for pen and paper. Since the person who has gathered the most Green Apples is the winner at the end of the game, it behooves players to lobby for their cards. Again, hilarity ensues.

The fact that everyone is judge at some point makes this game all-inclusive. The fast pace and lack of accessories make it portable. The combinations thrown together in Mad Lib style make it addictive. This Party Box version comes with more than 700 Red Apples and 252 Green Apples to keep game play interesting for quite a while. But if you're playing with a more adventurous crowd, check out these variations on Wikipedia.

The Party Box edisiton of Apples to Apples includes 756 Red Apple cards, 252 Green Apple cards, and two deluxe card trays.



Product Description
Apples to Apples is the wild, award-winning card and party game that provides instant fun for four to ten players. It's as easy as comparing Apples to Apples. You can just open the box, deal the cards, and you're ready to play. Select the card from your hand that you think is best described by a card played by the judge. If the judge picks your card, you win that round. And everyone gets a chance to be the judge. Each round is filled with surprising and outrageous comparisons from a wide range of people, places, things, and events. Fast moving and refreshing, Apples to Apples is perfect for any get-together with family and friends.

5 out of 5 stars Seriously Fun Game   November 24, 2008
A surprise hit! I have yet to find anyone who doesn't enjoy this game. We take it with us to family gatherings as well as get-togethers with friends - it can be played on several different levels! Easy to learn and it keeps conversation going. Just plain fun. I just bought the junior version for my son for Christmas!


4 out of 5 stars Fun game for more people   October 28, 2008
Great game without much preliminary instructions! Plays better with 5 people because the judge typically doesn't play. Fun with the right crowd!


5 out of 5 stars Our favorite family game!   October 22, 2008
Apples to Apples is our favorite family game! The more people to play the better.


5 out of 5 stars Fun with Family or Friends   October 19, 2008
This is a great game for the family, a group of friends or an adult party. The key is to "know your judge!"

It is best with 5 or more people, but can be played with 3 or 4.



3 out of 5 stars board game   October 16, 2008
Not that great of a game as advertised, but its okay. pretty easy to play with young and old.
