Beyond being a punchline, That’s What She Said is also the name of one of the most hilarious card games out there. It’s a game similar to Cards Against Humanity regarding the game mechanics but has different content and humor. It’s the IT game if you’re someone who loves making inappropriate jokes & making your friends laugh out loud, and as the creators say, you may, in fact, wet your pants. 

The Box & The Cards Of That’s What She Said

If you’re a fan of The Office (or Box Against Office), you probably know this phrase from the show. Anyways, back to our topic, here’s how the box looks:

The box has a simple yet cool design, which resembles simplicity and chic gameplay. There’s a white-and-red logo that explains the game idea in visual form and immediately signals the adult humor. It includes a few main rules, such as the age range, number of players, and game time, and that’s what matters at first sight.

The back provides more important details to help with the gameplay. There are a few card examples included too, so you get a glimpse of the humor used in them. 

The base game of this adult card game brings a total of 458 cards, from which 400 are white cards or phrases, and 58 are red setup cards.

I know you tilted your head to read the cards. For a prompt like doing it three in a row, it’s definitely worth it.

How To Play That’s What She Said

That’s What She Said, just like the other dirty card games, can be played by people who are 17 or older. 4 or more people can play at once, and a typical TWSS game lasts 30 to 60 minutes. But, how does the gameplay go?

  • One player becomes a game judge (per round), while all others get 5 face-down white cards;
  • The judge selects one red card from the deck, and reads it out loud;
  • All the other players submit one of their white cards as a response;
  • Whatever the judge thinks is the funniest card, wins the round, and the player keeps the red card as a point;
  • The first player to collect 5 cards, wins the game.

Extra Packs of That’s What She Said 

That’s What She Said is pretty hilarious on its own, but thankfully, there are extra packs for you to expand your deck of cards too! So, besides the main game, they’ve released 3 expansions (with 100 cards each), and lately, the Second Edition, which brings 458 updated cards, in a brand-new box & card design.

Honest Thoughts On That’s What She Said

After playing it several times over the years, I can confirm that it’s one of the most hysterical card games to ever exist. It’s non-stop laughter every time we play, but of course, if played with the right crowd. I can confirm as well that the content is extremely adult-friendly, but for us, that’s one of the key factors to making it that funny.

Yes, people even call it a sexual game, because of the types of prompts used. Personally, I think it works best if played with other couples, or, even better, if played at a girls’ night or a bachelorette party.

We’ve noticed that it doesn’t have a big replayability level on its own, so you might need to play with new people or purchase the extra packs. People who are very strict, and serious, will probably find the content vulgar and not funny.

However, everyone who has an open mind and likes making such inappropriate, dirty jokes, has TWSS on their top 3 list of games. And if you’re one of these people (and let’s be real, you are), That’s What She Said deserves a spot in your heart!
