RavensburgerThat's Not a Hat - Party Games for Kids Age 6+, 3 to 8 PlayersThe Forest Stewardship Council

Fun little memory party game. Simply remember one face down card per person sat at the table as you pass them around, sounds easy? It’s much more difficult and funny than you would guess. Big hit at the local table top gaming club.

This game is hilarious. Played this at the end of a night of board games and haven't laughed so much in a long time.In this game each player gets an card featuring an item. The items are pretty random stuff like surfboards, dogs, walking sticks, &c. At the start of the game you all start with your card face up, so everyone can see what everyone has. Then the start player flips their card over and slides it in the direction of the arrow on the card back saying "here's a lovely teapot" or whatever the item happens to be. The receiving player flips their original card over and slides that in the direction of the arrow. Play continues like this and soon you're passing around face down cards only.If you think the card you receive doesn't have what the person claims it to be then you can challenge it by saying "that's not a boot" (for example). If you're right, it's not a boot, then the lying/mistaken player gets the card face up as a negative point. If you're wrong and it is as they claim, then you get it instead. First play to fail three times losesThis all sounds very easy: there are only as many cards in play as players plus an extra one, so it should be easy to remember, right? But there's a massive bluffing aspect. If you can't remember what a card is, you can confidently claim it's one of the cards you do remember and the receiving player quite often loses confidence in their own memory. Soon the bluff becomes the truth, and everyone's laughing in hysterics when the card everyone thought was a ball for ages is actually an apple.Great for a few laughs over some beers or in the early hours after a long day of heavy gaming.

Purchased for Christmas and have played it a huge amount since! Really good fun, simple card game that causes super amounts of confusion as trying to remember two things at once is far beyond my fragile brains capabilities at my age. Strongly recommended!

Very quick and enjoyable game to play with friends. Arrived quickly.

That’s not a hat is a fast paced memory game of remembering a number of simple pictures as cards more around the table face down. It’s one of those games that you will either love or hate! Cards have clear simple line drawings of everyday objects and everyone is dealt one. Everyone reveals their card and then places it face down. Another card is drawn from the top of the deck revealed and then given face down to a player. This player passed their oldest card to the left or right depending on the arrow on the back and says ‘this is a telephone’ the next player accepts this and so it carries on or calls them out with the loser of the call keeping the card as punishment. Easy to learn, fun and a great price. It will be too stressful for some people though so bear that in mind.

Nice game

This is such a simple game and really cheap to buy, but had brought us hours of fun playing as a family wherever we go due to its small size making it very portableYou quickly forget what everyone has and it becomes a hilarious game of bluffing as you battle to not get caught out. As all the cards are picture cards, it’s suitable for all ages too!

This takes a couple of rounds to get into but it’s such a laugh and so much fun. Genuinely we have all been in absolute stitches every go. Also it’s really hard, no one was good at it. But such good fun and it’s so silly. Highly recommend for your next family game night
