Poison Letter

This game will keep players thinking on their feet.  This game is great to play in your living room or around the table with some chips and salsa. Fun Party Games for Adults is sure you will love the game Poison Letter.

Materials: none

# of players: any number but it's best with larger groups

This game is played in rounds.  In each round you want to be the last one left who doesn't mess up.  The players will take turns picking a "Poison Letter".  Each round the players will take turns giving answers within a theme that do not include the "Poison Letter."

The first player to choose the "Poison Letter" starts the round by saying "The Captain doesn't like the letter... What..."

Example: "The Captain doesn't like the letter M.  What will he eat for dinner?"

Going in a clockwise direction, starting with the person on the first players left, give answers to the question of things the Captain can eat that don't include the letter M.  Some answers could be chicken, french toast, spinach, eggs, corn etc. If anyone takes too long to answer, uses a word that has the "Poison Letter" in it or gives an answer that doesn't fit the theme, they are out for that round.  This round continues around the table/room until there is one person left.

Example of Play:

"The Captain doesn't like the letter F, what will he wear?"
"Sandals"
"Pajamas"
"Shorts"
"Flip flops" (this person would be out because they used a word that had the F in it.)
"Palm Tree" (this person would also be out because they said something that does not fit with something you wear.)

Play as many rounds as you like.  Whoever wins he most rounds wins the game.

Examples of themes:

"Where does he live"
"What does he plant in his garden"
"What are his hobby's"
"Where does he vacation"
"What will he buy"

You are going to have so much fun playing "Poison Letter"!
