Introduction
Welcome to the Offensive Band Name Generator tutorial! In this video, we will teach you how to play the game. The Offensive Band Name Generator is a party game designed for mature players, recommended for groups of 3 to 20 people. It involves creating unique and sometimes outrageous band names based on given themes. Let's dive into the details of this exciting and entertaining game.
Game Setup
To set up the main game, you will need the following components:
- Album cover cards
- Word cards
- Free word cards
- Theme lists
Shuffle the album cover cards and place them face down in a stack. Each player receives one card, which they will use as their personal album cover. The black free word cards should be stacked separately and spread out in the middle of the table. Mix them around to ensure randomness. Each player then draws six word cards at random from the pile. Finally, decide whether you want to play an inoffensive game using the "Class" theme list or an offensive game using the "Crass" theme list. Place the chosen theme list in front of the player who owns the game, and put the other list back in the box. Now, you're ready to start the game!
Gameplay
The gameplay of the Offensive Band Name Generator is divided into several rounds. Let's go through the steps of each round:
Choosing a Theme
The player with the theme list announces the current theme and the upcoming theme for the next round. There are 20 themes in total, numbered from 1 to 20. Players will try to create band names that fit the theme of the current round while also considering cards that may be more suitable for the next round.
Creating Band Names
All players simultaneously create a band name using the word cards in their hands. They can use any word on a card but are limited to using only one word from each card. Players have the freedom to create a band name with as many or as few cards as they wish from their hand. Additionally, they can use any number of available free word cards.
For example, if the current theme is "Technology Pets Aliens or Mexican Food," a player may create a band name like "Sticky Puppy," using the word cards "Sticky" and "Puppy" to fulfill the pets part of the theme. Free word cards can also be incorporated, such as adding "MC" to create the band name "MC Sticky Puppy."
Voting and Scoring
Once all players have created their band names, voting takes place. All players make the sign of the horn with one hand and raise it into the air. The player with the theme list does a four count, and on the count of three, all players point to the player they believe had the best band name for the round. The winner receives one point, and their band name is placed under their album cover card. In the case of a tie, all tied players receive one point. All players then discard the word cards used to make their band names, including free word cards.
The winner of the round also becomes the first player for the next round. They announce the new theme, and players have the option to discard any number of cards from their hand before drawing back up to six cards.
Album Cover Bonus Rounds
Round 10 and round 20 are album cover bonus rounds. In these rounds, the player with the theme list flips over an album cover card and passes it around the table for all players to see. Instead of drawing up to six cards, all players draw up to eight cards and use them to create both a band name and an album name that best fits the album cover image drawn.
In addition to regular scoring, players have the option to bet any number of word cards they have won as points. They arrange the cards they want to wager face up and place their album cover card on top to keep their bet secret from other players. During voting, players also consider the appropriateness of the band name and album name combination for the album cover image drawn. The winner or tied players keep all their weighted points and receive additional word card points for each card they have wagered. If a player did not win or tie the round, they must discard each word card they wagered face up.
Super Offensive Expansion
If you are using the Super Offensive Expansion, each player may have only one expansion card in their hand during each round. These cards are distinguished by their reverse color and should be discarded face down when used.
Album Name Betting
During the album cover bonus rounds, players have the option to bet word cards they have won as points. They arrange the cards they want to wager face up, indicating their bet. If they win or tie the round, they keep their weighted points and receive additional word card points for each card they have wagered. If they do not win or tie the round, they must discard each word card they have wagered face up.
Game End and Scoring
The game ends after the 20th round is completed. Each word card earned throughout the game counts as one point, and each album cover card is worth one point. Add up the points from both word cards and album cover cards to determine each player's final score. The player with the highest score wins the game!
