Game of Queens: A Drag Queen Card Race

Fun game, better with more people playing

I've never played the game or even bothered to read about it, but the cards themselves are gorgeous!

Love playing this with friends and family

Received this last night and was immediately impressed by the high quality materials involved, including a pleasing soft touch surface on the box and sturdy design. Cards are large and with the great artwork displayed in images. I've bought card games before for more money that are made of far more inferior stock. This was a fine surprise to me. As for the game mechanics, I'm afraid Game of Queens is -- as some of the shadier queens featured might say -- basic. Quite clear that not much thought was put into the gameplay aspect, though at the same time it's easy enough to brainstorm some more creative house rules utilizing what's given. We tried dealing a hand of five cards to each player to act as their House and then assigned each of the six categories rated to a six-sided die to randomize the selection of Category. This allowed each player to strategize which queen from their House to represent them on each roll, with the highest rating on each duel getting that trophy. Probably better if one of you can do a proper Junior Labeija or Billy Porter impersonation. ;)

My friend loved this as a present

I love the premise of a queen v. queen card game, and love the artistic renderings of the queens on the cards. My only complaint is that the rules that come with the cards make for a very boring game that requires no strategy. We made our own rules: each player gets 5 cards and there is a draw pile. Players take turns choosing a category and all players select a card to lay. The player with the highest value in the category gets all the cards. After each round, players draw from the draw pile. The player with the most cards wins. This made for a more strategic game, especially with only 2 players.

Really fun illustrations! This is a great gift for an fan of drag!

Fun flr all ages. If you watch Drag Race -- you'll love this card game. Not difficult to learn.
