## Features

- How to Play: Enter the world of Neanderthals where communication is simple and hilarious! Get your teammates to guess words and phrases, but there’s a catch—you can only use single-syllable words. Slip up and use a big word? Get ready to be bopped with a 2-foot inflatable "No!" Stick. The team with the most points at the end wins, but not without a lot of laughs along the way!
- What’s Included: Poetry for Neanderthals comes packed with 200 double-sided cards, 2 game boards, a 2-foot inflatable "No!" Stick (plus a repair patch for extra bopping), and a sand timer. Also included is an instruction manual (that you’ll probably skim) to get you started on your prehistoric adventure.

Easy to learn and endlessly entertaining, it’s a game that everyone will enjoy, no matter their age.
- Our Story: From the creators of Exploding Kittens and the mind behind The Oatmeal, Poetry for Neanderthals offers a unique blend of wordplay and slapstick humor.

## 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.
