What is Filthy Kings about?
Filthy Kings is a card game where players take turns being the king or queen and coming up with ridiculous rules for everyone else to follow. Think of it as a mix between King’s Cup and Cards Against Humanity.
How to Play
To start, each player is dealt a hand of cards with different actions or challenges on them. The king/queen then draws a rule card that dictates how everyone should play that round. This could be anything from “everyone must talk in a British accent” to “anytime someone laughs, they must do 10 jumping jacks”.
Once the rule is established, players take turns playing cards from their hand that fit within the rule. For example, if the rule is to speak in a British accent and you have a card that says “say ‘pip pip cheerio’ before each turn”, then you would play that card and say the phrase before playing your next card. The goal is to be the first player to get rid of all the cards in your hand.
Who Can Play
Filthy Kings is perfect for a group of friends who enjoy having a good time and don’t take themselves too seriously. It’s also great for breaking the ice at parties or bringing some laughter to a casual get-together. Trust me, once you start playing, you won’t want to stop.
What Makes It Fun
But here’s where things get interesting. If a player breaks the rule or can’t play a card, they must take a drink. And as you can imagine, with each round getting more ridiculous and players potentially getting tipsy, the game gets even more hilarious and unpredictable.
