Monikers: Serious Nonsense with Shut Up & Sit Down

Great party game. Fun expansion pack. Can include a lot of people of all different ages. Lots of selection on cards, easy to participate & understand. The cards hold a variety of different things, people, places, etc.

My sister was gifted this game, on family game night she brought it out. At first, I thought what a weird name, but after understanding it, the game was so much fun, first round is describing the word to your team and they have to guess or pass, then the second round, you can only do actions, no voice no sounds, third you can just say one word. Let me tell you this game is so much fun. You definitely need 4 players to play. You can have more players but I think ideally its 4-6 people. We ended up buying this one and then another extension pack for my niece and nephew, great game, small package, easy to play, fun for the entire family.Highly recommend this game.

Monikers is my favorite party game; I’ve played it dozens of times with very different groups of people, and everyone always has an absolute blast. It’s very easy to learn/teach, super engaging for the whole group, and almost always results in raucous hilarity. This particular expansion from the brilliant folks at SU&SD is especially good, and is my favorite way to play Monikers. Each card is dripping with clever wit and thoughtful care. If I could take one game with me to a desert island (and a group of friends!) it would be this box.

Our extended family has had so much fun with this game. We've played it with ages 12-80 and it's a hit. I did remove some of the less appropriate cards from the deck before playing with kids, probably around 15 total. Also fun with groups of friends, and always leads to lots of laughter.

So much fun but will ruin friendships 😂 we are a very serious game household and this game will flip tables and cause yelling but we will continue to play it every week because it is so much fun and with all the different cards it makes it difficult to be the same game over and over.

Another great expansion/box for monikers. The best charades/celebrity type game out there. Perfect for people that don't love charades, as the earlier rounds make the charades super easy. Perfect for any size group, we played over 16 at one point!

I like the concept but many of the "names" to be guessed are very obscure or weird phrasings. I got the Serious Nonsense one so I'm thinking maybe one of the earlier versions might have been better. One really great thing about it though is that you can easily transport it in your purse or tote bag because it is a very small box and you can play it any way you want to play it. There's no big game board to lug around or little pieces to risk losing. Price is a bit high for what it is but you can get a lot of use out of it because there are so many cards. You will be able to play many times without repeating too much.

This game had our large group choking with laughter! Two teams trying to beat each other by getting theirs to guess more words. First round-use any word but the word on the card to describe it. Second round (same set of words)- use only ONE word to describe it. Third round (still guessing the same words) - no words, only charades to get your team to guess! Hilarious! Never gets old and you can play again and again. Highly recommend!
