If you’re used to throwing regular game nights with your friends, you’re probably starting to go through Cards Against Humanity withdrawal since no doubt the card game formed the centerpiece of the event. The outrageous and hilarious game is one of the best out there, and thankfully, now you can play with your friends online from the comfort and safety of your own home.
- The game is available on PlayingCards.io. While the site offers basically any standard card game you can think of, from poker to Go Fish and everything in between, it’s safe to say that the ability to play Cards Against Humanity online is their best offering. Even better, it’s free!
- It works kinda like Netflix Party. If you haven’t heard of Netflix Party, you basically put on a movie and then share the broadcast with friends. This works similarly. To play Cards Against Humanity online, you scroll down the PlayingCards.io homepage until you see the option, click, then click “Start Game.” You then share the link to the virtual room you’ve created with any friends you’d like to join, and voila!
- It’s a totally legit playing experience. After editing the names of each of the players you’ve invited via the small briefcase option in the sidebar, you can go ahead and drag 10 white cards to your pile at the bottom of your screen. Then the judge for the round should draw a black card from that pile and you choose a white card to drag up to the middle. Hilarity will no doubt ensue!
- Up to six people can play at once. There’s only room for six at the virtual Cards For Humanity table, so choose your opponents wisely!
- You can play on mobile, but you should start on your laptop/desktop. Apparently the mobile version can be more difficult to navigate, so you might want to start on an actual computer until you get the hang of things. The experience will likely go much more smoothly that way. If you’re ready to play, you can go ahead and get a game started HERE.
