The T-shirt Game is very similar to Apples to Apples, only here, you're submitting a caption for the T-shirt picture instead of an adjective. The game can be played by winning points or the T-shirt. The point system is flawed and will make the game go forever, so it's probably best to just say the first to get five or six T-shirts wins. Or go around and have everyone be a judge an equal number of times, the one with the most T-shirts wins. Like Apples, everyone takes turns being the judge.

A great party game I've brought to my gaming group and conventions. It always provides a good time and some laughs. The only problem is if you play the game a lot, you'll start seeing the same T-shirts and captions again. But there's enough variety to keep the game fresh. Still, I hope they make a second edition or an expansion pack for this game. Bottom line, if you like Apples to Apples, you'll like this game too!

We received this game as a gift for my 9 year old game lover and have since bought it twice as birthday gifts for his friends. Besides fitting in the budget and fitting easily on the game shelf (nice and compact), it is a fun game for 9 year olds and the rest of their family. No strategy needed, just a sense of humor to make the funniest t-shirt and a little bit of luck picking the cards. Have fun with this game!

I was introduced to this game, last weekend at our local RPG convention. Our players ranged in age from 11yrs to too big to tell(okay I'll be 20 again soon!). This is great for learner readers and parents, as players you pick the best slogan for the t-shirt card. And then the Judge picks a slogan as the winner. Everyone gets to take a turn at being the judge.

The only thing we did different from the rules, was to ignore the Point cards... they are really not needed and we felt them unfair. We play like Apples to Apples, if your slogan is picked as the winner you keep the t-shirt card, play until one play receives X number (decided before game starts, we did 5 shirts) of t-shirts, and that player wins!

Bottom line this game is fun,silly and simple. A great game for young and old.

I played this game with other patients when I was in the hospital. I had so much fun playing it, that I had to get it. I just got it today and will be playing it tonight with my husband and some family members. I can't wait! It's a little hard to shuffle the cards, but it's worth the struggle. Once the game starts, it's hard to quit playing.

I ordered this for my 9 year old daughter who loves to play games. She loves it! The only disadvantage it has is that it needs to have a group of players to be really fun. Somethimes she wants to play a game and it is just the two of us, so we are limited to what we can play. We laughed a lot when reading the cards and trying to match them to a picture on a T-shirt and I guss that is the main thing. A fun inexpensive game.

This game is sooooooooooooooooooooo much fun!! It's simiar to Apples to Apples, but even funnier.

My boyfriend and his daughters and I played The T-shirt game last night and had a BLAST, laughed a lot! That game is terrific!! Genius! We were surprised, you really have to play it to appreciate how fun and funny it really is, just looking at the box and reading the premise doesn't do it justice. What a great game! Great to play with kids but would be fun with just adults too.

But seriously... gotta get the Chuck Norris card!

This game is an interesting change from the ordinary. Works best when your gathered around a table as the contestents all have to share the t-shirt card. Always an adventure with each player taking turns being the contestants and judge. I'm just wondering how long till they come out with a new and updated slogan deck to keep up to date with pop culture references...

Oh and gamer fans be jealous... I have an edition autographed by the creative and design team! Yesssss... mine mine mine... :-)

As a game enthusiast the T-Shirt Game is one of my very favorites. I've played with both my family and friends and no matter who you're with you're always going to have a good time - practically no set up and every time you play it's unique. A definite must have!!!

As others have said, this game is similar in style to Apples to Apples (and a game I just played, Sounds Like a Plan). The difference from Apples to Apples is definitely in the writing. The pictures and slogans make for a slightly different gameplay, but the writers were able to bring out their most absurd ideas and it works very well. There are some cards/slogans that may not be appropriate for anyone under 13, but overall a fun game to play with friends and (older) family.
