Apples to Apples

Since I received a few comments about my previous "Apple Games" blog, I decided to do some research about the "Apples to Apples" game that everyone was talking about. After some online researching, I found that it really did not have anything to do with apples, but I will tell you what the game is about anyway...

Each player is dealt seven "red apple" cards; on each is printed a noun or noun phrase. The judge draws a "green apple" card on which is printed an adjective, and places it face-up on the table. From their seven red-apple cards, each player, except the judge, chooses a card they think is the best match for the green apple card, and places it face-down. The judge shuffles the red apple cards, reads them aloud, and decides which noun is the best match for the adjective. The player who submitted that red apple card wins the round, and takes the green apple card to signify the win. All players then draw red cards until they have seven again, and the judge may pass to another person to repeat the process.

I LOVE any type of word/drawing/team game like this, so it sounds like a good game to invest in. Try it out at your next family or friend gathering!
