How would you answer the question “how are babies made?” if you only had a handful of random words to do it? Let your wit shine with outlandish metaphors and creative word association.
In Ransom Notes, the more absurd the better.
The Party Game So Addictively Funny That Phones Go Unchecked for Hours

In Ransom Notes, there’s no getting put on-the-spot. You don’t even need to be naturally funny! All you have to do is answer the prompt with whatever words you have available… and let laughs ensue.
Your #1 source for new inside jokes
Will people stare when your friends refer to alcohol as “commotion juice?” Yes. Will it be worth it? Absolutely.
Fresh material every single round.
With other party games, you can only play so many times before you learn all the response cards. With Ransom Notes, there are no repeats. Ever.

Instructions
“Instant inside joke generator”
“We all find this game absolutely hysterical and love how low-pressure it is. Family members drop in and out throughout the game and keeping score is completely out of mind. It takes less than 1 minute to teach someone how to play.”
Vee S.
“Had us all literally crying laughing”
‘It sounds cliche at this point, but it was true: this game had us all laughing so hard we cried. I was skeptical that the game would be this funny, but almost every round was hilarious. Four adults and four teens, and we all had a fantastic time.”
Sharon G.

Any Questions?
Why is the game rated 15+?
Some of the prompt cards mention themes that are a bit adult, i.e. "Where do babies come from?" or "Write a commercial for cocaine." BUT, if you do want to make it entirely family friendly, pulling about 20% of the Prompt Cards should make the game totally PG and playable for all!
How long is each round?
Individual rounds usually take about 1-2 minutes to make a response (feel free to set a 90 second timer if you like). The whole game takes anywhere from 30-90 minutes, or until you run out of beer.
How do the magnets work?
The word magnets in Ransom Notes work just like refrigerator magnets. They’ll stick right to the metal cards included in the game, but are easy to wipe off at the end of each round.
Does Ransom Notes: House Party Edition at Target stores have separate content?
Yes! The Ransom Notes: House Party Edition found at Target Stores has completely fresh prompt cards. and works seamlessly as an add-on game to both the Original Ransom Notes game and the Ransom Notes Expansion Pack. Enjoy!
