Awkward Moment

  • "Gave this game to 12-yr-old boy for his birthday. We played and both he and his 14-yr-old sister seemed to enjoy it very much - they laughed a lot. Heard from their dad a week later that they both have gotten it out to play when their friends came over. I call that a successful gift!"

    Grandma

  • "Played the game on vacation with family and had a great time. We laughed at the answers given over and over! Will play it again and again!"

    Jilly

  • "Great gift for my hard to buy for teenage granddaughter. Visually appealing and she liked it."

    Prudentia

  • "Fun on those trips with the kids!"

  • "Based on the reviews, I chose to purchase this as a gift for my 13 year old niece for Christmas. The game has been a hit with family and friends. Good clean fun."

    Broadway Lover

  • "I like how the game incorporates a wide spectrum of reactions. I could easily see myself playing this game with some of my younger cousins."

    Cube Colosuss

  • "The game was really fun and interactive! Kinda like Apples to Apples, but required a little more thought. I really enjoyed it though!"

    Rachel

  • "Awkward Moment is an amusing and entertaining game! It is great for groups and parties. It really makes you think about how other people's perspectives and reactions to awkward moments!"

    Amanda the Panda

  • "Loved playing this game with my girls! Whenever they have friends over we all sit on the floor and play. Easy set up. Fun to laugh about the awkward moments we've all experienced."

    RE

  • "This game, played similarly to the beloved Apples to Apples, has an additional "Decider" card which makes rounds even more quick and hilarious. With some hints of Cards Against Humanity, this seems to be the ultimate product of that game and Apples to Apples, and truly fun to play with a small or large group of friends."

    Ann Bergeron
