## Features

- Poetry for Neanderthals is a competitive word-guessing card game from Exploding Kittens where you must speak good or get hit with a NO! stick.
- Using only single syllable words, give clues to your team trying to guess your secret phrase. If you mess up and use a big word, you get bopped on the head with a 2-foot long inflatable club.
- So, instead of saying "broccoli," you'd say something like "green thing you eat for live long and have good health."
- It's a board game that forces you to explain complicated ideas using simple vocabulary. It's a game that forces you to sound a little bit dumb.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: If I lose the inflatable club, would it be safe to replace it with a real club, truncheon, or large stick for game use?**
A: I would only recommend a real club if you first equip it with spikes.  Games with consequences keep everyone on their feet!

**Q: Is the club a suitable improvised self-defense implement in emergencies?**
A: Absolutely not! The club is inflatable, and would not be useful as a weapon at all.

**Q: We can’t blow up the “No” stick. Any suggestions?**
A: We're so sorry to hear that! Please email support@explodingkittens.com so we can get you a replacement inflatable No Stick right away.

**Q: Can three people play this game?**
A: Three people could play but one person would have to play on both teams. It works best with 4 or more.
