About the game

What you do in a play session

If you love a good laugh and aren't afraid to look a little silly in front of your friends, Monikers: Serious Nonsense is the game for you! This standalone expansion (meaning it works on its own!) packs 330 brand-new cards, crafted by the humor wizards at Shut Up & Sit Down. Get ready for epic charades, hilarious impressions, and a whole lot of people trying to guess what on earth you're acting out. It's the kind of game that turns any gathering into an unforgettable party, perfect for large groups who don't take themselves too seriously. The cherry on top? The triumphant return of the much-requested 'Twelve Hopelessly Stupid Fourth Rounds,' now even more bizarre and fun. Whether you're already a fan of the original Monikers or just looking for a game that guarantees belly laughs and moments of delightful absurdity, this one is sure to create great stories and plenty of funny memories. It's easy to learn, quick to play, and ideal for breaking the ice or livening up any get-together. Just be careful not to wake the neighbors with your laughter!
