Have a Hilarious Game Night with WATCH YA’ MOUTH THROWDOWN EDITION!

 

WATCH YA’ MOUTH THROWDOWN EDITION

 

 

 

Looking for a fun and entertaining game to play during the holiday season when your family visits? You must check out the hilarious game “Watch Ya’ Mouth Throwdown Edition“!

 About the game:

Multicolored mouthpieces + action-packed THROWDOWNS x fresh funny phrases = turnt-up unpredictability and ludicrousness!

Watch Ya’ Mouth Throwdown Edition amps up mouthguard gameplay more notches than you and your friends’ belts combined. Our head-to-head mouthpiece THROWDOWNS (challenges) are lit and legit. Throwdown Edition fuses the signature silliness of the original Watch Ya’ Mouth Game with spanking-new, side-splitting tasks and surprises.

With Watch Ya’ Mouth Throwdown Edition, 4-10 players face off in our mouthy mashup of all your favorite bar games, relay race activities, and acting, singing, and drawing throwdowns —with some social media twists. One round of 4 people lasts 30-60 minutes and only uses 16 out of 100 THROWDOWN cards. Because there’s nothing more annoying than blasting through a pack of cards in one night (or) actually having to talk to your friends.

The Watch Ya’ Mouth line of team-based card games is outrageously fun, but sometimes mouthguard gamers wanna get physical and refuse to share the glory. Thanks to our Throwdown Dice, your opponent changes every turn, so you can take down all of your peeps one by one. The better you know your buddies, the more you can destroy them. Don’t forget to record their humiliation and get Watch Ya’ famous! Gloat over your victories using #WatchYaMouth.

Watch Ya’ Mouth Throwdown Edition comes with almost everything you need for one humdinger of a hilarious hootenanny. You do need a table. And friends. Plus a few common items like pens, paper, and spoons. As long as you’re not basic AF, we gotchu:

  • 100 Throwdown Cards
  • 42 Phrase Cards
  • 6 Multicolored Mouthpieces (4 Regular and 2 Small)
  • 4 Throwdown Straws
  • 4 Noisemakers
  • 2 Throwdown Balls
  • 1 Throwdown Dice
  • 1 Sand Timer

That one friend’s uber-competitive meltdown, brought to you by Watch Ya’ Mouth. Every group’s got one. If you don’t think yours does, then it’s you, boo. But don’t worry. We heart you anyway. $24.99 retail price.

Ages 8+

My kids were so excited to get this game! They have seen commercials and Youtube videos all about it and couldn’t wait to try it themselves. I love how 6 total mouth pieces are included in this game. It is great for large families or even when friends come over.  the mouth pieces are easy to insert into your mouth and are comfortable once they are in. It is SO funny when you try to talk out of them! My kids loved using the straws and noise makers the best. Such a fun game to play on family game night or even at sleep overs!

Throwdown Edition has already been Awarded Top Holiday Toy of 2017 by Toy Insider & selected for the 2017 Amazon Holiday Toy List.

This game would make the perfect holiday gift!!
