A game of ridiculous quotes by famous people to inject some fun into your moderately boring life.
Quotable is a card game full of hilarious and meticulously selected quotes from the world’s best and worst people (politicians, actors, people who are famous for being famous, etc). While you will 100% know the author, there is only a 1% chance you will know who said these quotes. That is the fun part about the game!
About us: We’ve been friends since the Clinton administration. We went to college together, were crowned intramural sports champions together, and eventually were in wedding parties together. We’ve been inventing games for the past decade. Basically everybody we know asked us to share this idea, so here it is…
Gameplay: The scoring of Quotable is similar to Balderdash or Fibbage (two of our faves). After hearing a quote, the object of the game is to either write down the genuine author of the quote or write down a fake author that will trick your friends. Players receive points by voting for the correct answer amongst your friends fake authors. Additionally you get points for everyone you fool!
FAQs
Q: What types of quotes do you have in the game?
1. “I cannot believe they said that!”
This is the surprising quote that people would never expect. Imagine that The Unibomber (Ted Kaczynski), or Genghis Kahn said something almost poetic. We found these types of quotes and put it in the game. Then people will guess Mary J. Blige, or Robert Frost. The fun part in these quotes is when the answer is revealed.
2. “I should have known that!”
Sometimes the most obvious answer is the one right in front of you. “Adults are obsolete children”. Now there are two ways to go when tricking people. Is it someone like Walt Disney, or JK Rowling? Or is it something weird like R. Kelly? The correct answer is Dr. Seuss, and it’s this point where everyone screams “I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT!”
3. “Wow, just wow…”
This type of quote is tough to pinpoint, but the quote in of itself is very funny. One of our favorites is: “I’ve never really wanted to go to Japan. Simply because I don’t like eating fish. And I know that’s very popular out there in Africa.” Now this quote is just, well… “wow.” It was Britney btw.
Q: I love this idea and you guys are so cool and good looking, how can I help?
Well first off thank you, but that being said, if you share our Kickstarter on your Facebook page / Twitter Page / Instagram Page / Something we’ve never heard of, then we will write you a personal thank you email or note on this page. The more you share the closer we get to making this dream a reality.
