Krackades! It’s a card game of charades on crack! Another krazy kickstarter we love!!
Imagine charades hooked up with Cards Against Humanity and then nine months later a new game was born – and it was called Krackades!
Lauded by one of the inventors of Cards Against Humanity, Josh Dillon, as … a unique and exciting new entry in the line of irreverent party games.” Krackades is really charades on crack! It is an outrageous party game where charades meets Cards Against Humanity. Act It. Draw It. Sculpt It.
This unique and exciting new entry in the line of irreverent party games makes you compete against the clock and each other to Act, Draw, or Sculpt (playdoh included) the most outrageous and irreverent things imaginable! Just thinking of this I can imagine a lot of strange and funny consequences.
The inventors call it A” Chimerical Party Game That Mashes Clay, Pen & Theater with Cards Against Humanity Humor” and they say it is a combination of CAH with Cranium style sensibilities.
I think it sounds completely hysterical – and already people on facebook are telling me to looks awesome to them.
(Personally, I already have plans to try this new custom card game out on a variety of groups of people just to see what happens.)Ad Magic interviewed one of the inventors Cyrus K about the game and how it was developed.
AD MAGIC: HOW DID YOU INVENT THE GAME?
CYRUS: I created the party game with my friend Jeff (cc’d here). We both like playing and developing games and wanted to contribute something conceptually unique, hilarious and engaging for our generation. We made Krackades because we got tired of the same board games and wanted to contribute an exciting addition to the party game genre. We feel Krackades can really fill in for the paucity of outrageous party games out there. After numerous playtesting, we found Krackades can help break the ice faster amongst friends and new acquaintances alike with one fun, wild and crazy collective experience. On more than one occasion, some people even suggested it would be great for team building exercises, haha…I’m not sure about that.
AD MAGIC: TEAM BUILDING?CYRUS:Our game is designed to successfully leverage the different strengths of players on one’s team (e.g. someone may be particularly adept at drawing, sculpting and/or even charades). So if you aren’t good in one area, chances are you will find a suitable niche or perhaps have fun challenging yourself! In addition, the Krack Attacks allow the opposing team to be totally engaged as well. So we think we achieved a viable balance of fun between teams and friends.AD MAGIC: WHAT WAS ONE OF THE FUNNIEST THINGS THAT HAPPENED WHILE YOU WERE GAME TESTING IT?
CYRUS: There are many outrageous moments to recount from playtesting but I was surprised how people managed to guess “Walk of Shame” while someone was Krack Attacked to sculpt it one-handed and with their eyes closed…all under 60 seconds!
AD MAGIC: HOW DID SOMEONE GET WALK OF SHAME ACCOSS WITH EYES CLOSED AND ONE HANDED LOL?
CYRUS: That was a complete surprise for all of us! Everyone started guessing randomly at the beginning until their guesses got more and more refined as the sculptor molded a human figure with one hand and started hopping it around the table…albeit with one hand and eyes closed…a double Krack Attack!
AD MAGIC: WHERE ARE YOU FROM? (Me thinking – nice travel write off maybe)
CYRUS: Jeff and I are based out here in the SF Bay Area in Menlo Park.
Hmmm – so I LOVE San Francisco. These guys HAVE to get funded – I need to go back out there for a nice trip 🙂
So I would up funding it this morning – even though Ad Magic is going to print it – there is nothing like getting Kickstarter stuff in the mail. It is way more fun and of course – I want to support the guys. This is going to be such a fun game – I am actually already planning to bring it over to a friend’s house. I am so sick of them beating me at the karaoke game on the X box when we go over there (I am a professional singer and musician and so it is quite frustrating) I cant WAIT to see how this one goes over with the group !!
