Not Safe Four Words
A game of filth for over 18s.
Think sweary adult / playground humour meets Cards Against Humanity. Create the rudest, most eyebrow-raising phrases possible from innocent-looking words. Try it. Make the filthiest phrase you can from "hobbit, birthday, orgy, secret."
150 beautifully designed cards with a word on each and every one: sometimes a rude word, sometimes a naughty one, sometimes a swear word, and, sometimes just your common or garden word like "luxury" or "Persian" or "tart".
How to play - The really short version
Make each other laugh. Do not hold back.
Deal four cards to each player (3-5 players is best). Put the rest in the middle. Draw one from the remaining deck and place it face up. The player to the left tries to make a four-word phrase using that card and three other cards from their hand. If anyone laughs, even a snort or a titter, the player wins those cards and puts them in their pile of filth. Play continues to the left.
If you're a prude or a professor of something fancy, fear not. You can tell yourself it's a social experiment and that you're only playing it to "see what all the fuss is about". Just ignore the fact it'll have you crying with laughter, blushing like your Great Aunt Agnes and wetting yourself.
A few, very necessary warnings
Do not play this game with your elderly, purest church-going relatives unless you’ve already been cut out of the will. If you do, have an ambulance and priest on standby.
Avoid playing this in public places unless you enjoy horrified (but curious) side-eyes from respectable citizens.
Under no circumstances play this game in or near a Waitrose. It’s not the done thing. Doing so may cause the store to collapse in on itself in a super spectacular ball of fiery suppressed British humour longing for release. The Northern Lights can fuck off.
Now shuffle up, get crude, regret nothing.
