Best match
A judge flips a describing word, everyone plays the card from their hand that fits it best, the judge picks a winner. Apples to Apples with office words.
- Players
- 4–10
- Time
- 15–30 min
What you need
- About 30 "describing" cards (Awkward, Urgent, Overrated…)
- About 80 "thing" cards (The printer, Reply all, Free cake…)
How to play
- Deal five thing cards to everyone. One player is the judge.
- The judge turns over a describing card.
- Everyone else plays a thing card face down; the judge shuffles them, reads them out and picks the best fit.
- The winner keeps the describing card; the role of judge moves on. First to five wins.
Office tip: Writing the cards together is half the fun. Keep them kind: punch up, not at colleagues.
