Question

Can Apples To Apples be played with only two people?

Community Answer

Unfortunately no. There needs to be a sufficient number of people to play with one player acting as a judge. The game's official rulebook recommends at least 4 players take part.

Can I change the rules?

Sure! Make any adjustments to the game you like. Just make sure the rules still make sense. One of the best parts of Apples To Apples is that it can be customized in so many different ways, and stays fun game after game.

Question

Can you change your cards?

Community Answer

Not until you draw new ones. Red cards can only be replaced after a card has been played during the course of a round.

Question

Are blank cards decided before the game starts or decide during the game?

Community Answer

It's up to you. I personally leave them blank, and let the player decide what it is before playing it. If you want, you could find all of the blank cards, write on them what you please, and then evenly distribute them throughout you card piles.

Question

What happens if more than one player claims to have submitted the winning card?

Community Answer

The judge always decides who wins. If the judge can't decide between two cards, then they have the option of choosing a winner at random.

Question

Could you play this game with as many as 48 people? Say 8 tables with 6 people at each table?

Elizabeth Stevenson

Community Answer

Yes but you would need 3 to 4 boxes of the game to do so because 1 box of the game can do 4-10 players.

Question

What is the purpose of the judge dealing himself red apple cards if he or she does not include his/her choice of red apple card?

Community Answer

Since the judge changes every round, everyone will need seven cards and if they are the judge, they just set their cards aside till someone else is judge.
