Were Really Strangers Card Game Reviews Summary

Gameplay Experience

Pros:

• "Absolutely love this game! It works equally well in a group of strangers or 1:1 with someone you already know."
• "This game has certainly inspired some in-depth conversations- some dark and heavy, some fun and light-hearted."
• "It has three stages depending on how deep you want to get with talking and you share what you want."
• "Every single person I’ve played this game with, we have grown closer OR it can reveal who your friends are."
• "I got these cards for a social group that I host and they're a perfect way for new people to get to know each other as well as deepening existing friendships."
• "We cried, laughed and we're doing so much better."
• "Me and my partner struggled for a bit to connect and we’ve been together for three years so it can seem hard to say we still have stuff to talk about however this game helped us both open up in a way that saved our relationship."

Cons:

• "The rules here are too loose, and can result in (albeit curved) amounts of favoritism shown to certain players in the higher card tiers."
• "Some of the wildcards are unrealistic or they ignore the potential for player boundaries."
• "From the way it’s social media promotes this game, I was expecting more hard hitting questions."
• "Some of the cards can be cheesy too but we just skip. Maybe those questions would be better for people new to dating."
• "I suppose my only criticism of this game is that it would be great if the instructions included some ideas for game variations instead of just leaving a blank slate for you to figure it out as you go."
• "It asks you to take selfies with your game partner and do some other things that were just sort of weird and I think would make a lot of people uncomfortable."
• "Some of questions got repetitive."

Product Quality

Pros:

• "The cards are made well and come in an organized, easy-to-store box."
• "The game items are made of good materials, the instructions are comprehensive and the variety of questions and wild cards shows that a lot of thinking and knowledge on the subject was used for its creation."
• "The quality of the cards is exceptional - sturdy, well-designed, and visually appealing."
• "Nice cards and nice box. Really like it."
• "I feel that this game comes in a quality box and quality material."
• "Package comes well wrapped and undamaged."
• "First, when I got my box, it did get dinged, but the content inside were okay."

Cons:

• "Excited to play the game and the cards themselves are probably fine, but disappointed that the game box arrived damaged."
• "Our box was really jacked up. Looks like it came that way from the warehouse."
• "What is a drawback on this game is that some cards were not proofread and so there is glaring typos for spelling and also weird printing issues, but perhaps it was just my copy of the game."
• "Oh, and some of the cards have really bad typos."
• "Great game, but there were a few issues.-LOTS of typos."
• "Purchased this from Amazon as a gift. While playing realized many of the cards had spelling/misprint errors."
• "Game didn’t come with the final card? kind of an important part of the game…regardless, good game if you look past the issues and just google the final card, but because of the misprints, definitely feel a little jipped since I paid $20."
