Fun game!

Plenty of laughs to be had. We played with 4 and it was hilarious. We played different styles and played our own "storyboard/storyline" mode where each person put down their best card and it would be accepted as long as it made sense, if not it would be rejected by the majority and the person would need to draw 2 more cards. Ended up with some hilarious comic style storylines.

Joking Hazard is a hit, and there aren't too many obscenities
by Kevin Rogers (5 out of 5 stars)

Joking Hazard is absolutely hilarious. It's played like Apples to Apples or Cards Against Humanity, except instead of building phrases, you're building a three-pane comic strip. We were cracking up almost every single round, and it's astounding how well all of the seemingly unassociated panes fit together in sequence. I often play with some more sensitive players, so I wondered exactly how obscene the game really is. I couldn't find that information anywhere online, so hopefully this will help.

About 20-25 cards contain swear words or obscenities that can be censored with a sharpie while still making sense. For some sensitive players, this is a way to keep these cards in the game.

There are about 50-60 cards that are particularly obscene/objectionable/inappropriate/offensive that cannot be censored and still remain playable. If you're looking for a "cleaner" version of the game, just remove these 50-60 particularly obscene cards and you're good to go
There are still around 250 cards remaining after the filtering/censoring, so the game is still completely playable without the obscenities, and is still absolutely hilarious. One of the best games I've bought in a long time, and will probably become my favorite.

Like Cards Against Humanity but instead of words, it's pictures

If you and your friends are a fan of Cyanide and Happiness, this game is a no brainer to get. I just played with a total of 6 people for the first time and it was a blast. Almost every round was playable with cards in your hands, which unlike Cards Against Humanity, where you can go the whole game just burning bad cards only to pick another boring card to discard later. Some of the cards are very disturbing and as you play, you think a card couldn't get worse, and it always did which made the game even more funny and unpredictable.

While playing, we made up our own rules where you can play a card before, after, or inbetween the 2 set up comics. This gave so many options for everyone to play a card that would fit the theme of the set up. However, it did make it obvious for who put a card at the beginning if they were the only one, but we trusted the judges enough to pick the funniest option even though they knew who placed the card down.

The only downside is that because its all picture based, the cards all need to be visible and to be read by everyone. So everyone has to sit in a close circle or at a table.

Love it

As with most things in life, you'll see varying opinions. Not everyone will find the same things funny- and that's why you see mostly either 5 star reviews, or one star reviews for this game.

For those people who can't laugh at this and say it's only funny if your a teenage boy- that's fine. I'm in my 30's and I think it's absolutely hilarious. Does that make me immature? Maybe, and that's fine too. For anyone looking into buying this game, do some image searches to see what the cards look like and you'll immediately know if you're the kind of person that would love this game, or if you're the kind of person that won't find it funny at all. I knew what to expect and I wasn't disappointed.

A Game Night Headliner
by Amazon Customer (5 out of 5 stars)
April 27, 2017

I have a group of friends who are really into board games. We have played the classics but the main event of each Board Game Night tends to be a new kind of game like Catan or Red Dragon Inn. Ofcourse we played a bit of Cards Against Humanity and Fun Employed and they were always a great time. So i picked this up because i followed the comic and the animated Internet cartoon for years now. I don't think i had laughed as hard during a board game before. We started Game night with this and ran through the all cards and even the Expansion i picked up with this (Which i highly suggest getting with this). It took up the entire night because we didn't want to stop. Every few hands we would be like, "You guys want to play something else?" in which the response was always, "After a few more hands". If you liked Cards Against Humanity or Funemployed or any of the other Judge based card games, this is the not only for you... It will be the best out of all of them. I suggest making some house rules (Which the game rules encourage) as the base rule set while still fun, can be limiting to an extent. Had way more fun when we dropped the whole points nonsense for just making the funniest 3 piece comic. I Highly Recommend.

Better than Cards Against Humanity

I just played his with six people and one of them had to go to the hospital with a hernia because he was laughing so hard. We will morn his passing but look forward to further updated cards. This game is better than CAH.

Been a fan of C&H for years and this disappoints big time
by Amazon Customer (1 out of 5 stars)

I've been a fan of cyanide and happiness comics for years, and have had CAH for a few years so I figured this game would be phenomenal as it has my favorite comics and plays like my favorite party game but hey was I wrong. After playing this about a dozen times over the past year this game just doesn't really work. Most of the comic panels seem like they are derived from the bottom of the barrel of their comics. On top of that after investing plenty of time I would say that maybe only 2% of games actually had cards that lined up well, the vast majority of times we would end up with basically 3 setups or 3 ends and never be able to make an even remotely funny comic strip. The game would have been better suited if the cards had some demarcation for beginning, middle, and end to create a better flow and delivery. Overall I will probably just start using the game as kindling to start campfires as I can't think of another use other than just throwing the game out. If I didnt already have all the expansions for CAH I would return this to buy more expansions for that game.

Another fun adult-themed card game

Worth every penny if you're looking for twisted "Rated-R" fun.

Played it once, and likely destined for the back of the closet
by Zach (2 out of 5 stars)

As a Cyanide & Happiness fan, I had high hopes for this game. The premise seemed good, the game play recognizable/easy, and could be good for groups. Unfortunately, it falls flat.

The biggest issue is that it's really hard to make panels that actually make sense, let alone are funny. Many of the cards also try way too hard to be edgy. I get it, that's what C&H are known for, but this seemed over-the-top and yet lazy, even for them.

As good or better than Cards Against Humanity
by D. Schwent (5 out of 5 stars)

Back in the day, my gf at the time turned me on to Cyanide and Happiness, a webcomic that was in alignment with my own demented sense of humor. Now, a decade later, the keys to the universe are in the hands of me and 2-4 of my closest friends.

Joking Hazard is a card game for twisted individuals like myself. The box includes 360 cards, each a panel from a C&H strip, and the instruction sheet. The game is pretty simple. Whomever's turn it is flips over a card from the deck, adds one of their own to the strip, and the remaining players try to end the strip in the funniest of ways.

It's a hilarious experience. The replay value is pretty high. We've played a few times now and it hasn't worn thin yet. If you like Cards Against Humanity, you'll have a blast with Joking Hazard
