What Do You Meme? First Impressions
What Do You Meme?: A Millennial Card Game For Millennials And Their Millennial Friends.
Will take longer to read the name of the game than it will for you to get bored of playing it.
Think you’ve got what it takes to out-meme your friends IRL?
This? is a party card game for the social media generation.
What Do You Meme? Game Play
You shuffle up the photo cards and put one of them on the easel in front of the randomly selected active player.
This photo is No Thanks Guy. I did recognise a few but some were fleeting images that didn’t last long on the Internet.
Then everyone takes a comment card from their hand and puts it face down. The active player shuffles the cards, lays them out and picks the comment they think is the best.
That could mean the funniest, it could mean the most clever, it’s up to that particular player.
The winner keeps the photo card as a point and the active player goes clockwise.
The player to get to a target number of photo cards first wins.
Theme
Assigning random unfunny comments to pictures is basically the Internet. But yes it is an abstract game for what it’s worth.
Setup
Shuffle and deal. That’s it really. You have to unfold the easel… so there’s that.
Components & Artwork
The images are clear and the easel works well. That is all really.
Ease of Teaching & Accessibility
Very easy to teach but it is a 17+ game so it won’t be for everyone. It would be possible to go through and remove the 13+ rated comment and photo cards and still have plenty left to play with should you wish.
What Do You Meme? Summary
There are a lot of CAH clones like this and I’ve played a few. This is the only one that didn’t make me laugh.
Just play Cards Against Humanity or Joking Hazard instead.
