Our Review:
Apples to Apples, by Out of the Box Publishing, is a funny party game that has taken the country by storm. Each player draws several red apple cards, each of which represents a noun (ranging from Stinky Socks to Guerilla Warfare to Hillary Clinton). On each turn, one player is designated as the judge. The judge takes the top green apple card, which has an adjective on it, and reads it aloud to the group. Each player then throws one or two of her red apple cards, the ones that she feels the judge will see as a good match to the green apple card, into play. Players must act quickly though, as only the first few red apple cards played are judged—the rest are returned to their owners’ hands. The judge then reads through the red apple cards, picks his or her favorite match, and awards a point to the owner of the red apple card. The player with the most points is declared the winner.
Apples to Apples is a great game for groups—it’s fast, fun, and is usually the source of plenty of laughs. It’s easy to learn, and you can get started in less than five minutes. Although the game components are adequate, the apple cards can tend to bend a bit in the mad rush to throw them down before your opponents do. One thing to be aware of is that the judging in Apples to Apples is pretty subjective. The judge can choose whatever card he or she thinks is the best match, regardless of what anyone else thinks. Playing with kids is also difficult, because they’re often pretty nonsensical in their matches—but that’s all part of the fun of the game. The moral of the story is to know your audience. If you know what card would appeal to the judge, toss it in. It’s worth a try. It’s a pretty safe bet that Apples to Apples will be a hit at your next party.

 Great for all ages
This is my son's favorite game. It's best with five or more players, although four in a pinch is okay. We played during the holidays with ages ranging from 10-80 and we all had a blast. It's especially nice that the rules can be taught in about 2 minutes. We've found that even reluctant participants enjoy themselves once the round starts.

 Super Fun With Friends
I am a huge Apples-to-Apples fan. This game is about social interaction and laughing, NOT about winning.
It's a better played with friends because knowing the other players is part of the trick. I wouldn't recommend it for a group where some people know each other, but others are new.

Family Fun at Its Best
Even my 70-plus in-laws enjoyed it! The whole family plays this quite often and it's great with a group of friends as well. Enjoyable.

So FUN!
I play this with family and friends when we get together. It's a very social game. I would recommend playing with people who have a sense of humor. My family and friends are very opinionated and wants to win as much cards as they can, so it makes it exciting and fun.
