Exploding Kittens Poetry for Neanderthals Expansion Pack – 500 Cards, 2+ Players, 15 Minutes | Ages 7+

Extend the Poetry for Neanderthals Experience

When you add Exploding Kittens Poetry for Neanderthals Expansion Pack, your word guessing game gains a broader palette of clues. Expect a cozy room filled with warm laughter, a flurry of quick-fire hints, and teammates trading smirks as they try to describe a concept with one-syllable speech. The expansion brings 500 new phrase cards and 2,000 fresh words and phrases into rotation, plus 20 blank cards so you can customize the challenge to your crowd. The rules stay familiar: clue your way to a teammate's guess using single-syllable words, but the new prompts push the creativity and humor to sharper, sillier edges. This is the kind of upgrade that can stretch a family game night into a longer, more lively session—without changing the feel you already love.

Gold standard in party games often lies in the small, surprising moments: a perfectly timed clue that lands after a chorus of giggles, a surprising guess that turns the table, or a playful disagreement that ends in friendly roars of laughter. This expansion feeds those moments by delivering a larger, varied pool of words and phrases, while keeping setup simple and fast. It’s designed to be quick to learn, easy to drop into an existing game, and flexible enough to scale from a casual family round to a larger social gathering.

What’s included

• 500 phrase cards (2,000 new words and phrases) to energize guessing challenges and keep rounds fresh
• 20 blank cards for customizing clues, adding private jokes or your own twists
• Instruction manual with clear setup guidance to blend the expansion with the base game

Why you’ll love it

• New content for additional rounds without repeating prompts
• Preserves the single-syllable clue constraint for consistent playstyle and humor
• Ideal for family nights, friends, and party settings with 2+ players
• Compact, party-ready expansion that travels easily for on-the-go game nights

Compatibility note: You’ll need the original Poetry for Neanderthals game to play, but once connected, you’ll unlock a broader tapestry of wordplay that complements the core experience. If you enjoy fast, witty back-and-forth and spontaneous funny clues, this expansion can offer a new layer of excitement without changing the game’s spirit.
