To play the game, each player will be given a turn to roll a die. Based on the roll of the die, all the other players pick a card. The cards contain hilarious statements and phrases that might carry some truth and so, the player then has to select the truest and funniest line.

The first player to collect six scoring tokens is declared the winner.

Likes & Dislikes

Players do like the light-hearted nature of this game and the way that it can be set up and played quickly at parties. However, it has been found to get a bit repetitive once played and so, there is not a lot of longevity in the game when it comes to playing it.

Final Thoughts

A party game that is ideal for a large group of people to play for a short amount of time. The rules of the game are easy to pick up and with a low skill and complexity level, it is purely designed for fun and laughter.

When comparing adult board games in how 18+ they are, Boxers or Briefs is pretty light.
