  • Question
    I understand how to chose 3 cards to make the haiku, but what I don't understand is why it says "Draw 2 Pick 3"?
    Community Answer
    You have to draw two cards so that you have enough cards in your hand to continue playing at the end of the turn, and also so you'll have more choices in your hand at the time of the "Draw 2 Pick 3" round.

  • Question
    How do you win in a game of Cards Against Humanity?
    Community Answer
    Cards Against Humanity is a casual party game, therefore there is no "winning" per se. This is where house rules come into play. The basic house rule for winning (as also stated in the article) is to just play until someone reaches 5 points. Another way to decide the winner is to play the black "Make a Haiku" card, wherein the funniest Haiku wins. However, this method may lead to many players getting upset if the person with the lowest points wins. A way around this is to keep the point system relevant by allowing points to be used to trade cards.

  • Question
    How do people remember which cards they answered with?

    Each person has one answer each round. It's usually not so hard to remember just your answer (this is enough) especially when you read all your cards in hand each round again and again.
  • Question
    Can the game be played with only two players?
    Community Answer
    You can make any rules for your Cards against humanity game. There are several possibilities how to change the game for two players. The best one is to play with an imaginary player (called Rando Cardrissian). You play as usual (new Czar each round) but Rando will pick two cards each round (randomly from white cards). Czar is choosing between that three cards.
