How much of what you say is actually made up of your words?

Emotional IQ is a hilarious new party game for 2 players on up to party size groups. It’s easy to learn and easy to play. There are 2 types of cards: the Emotion Cards, and the Sentence Cards. You’ll choose 1 card from each stack and then deliver the sentence aloud for everyone to hear.

How do you say, “Great news everyone, I got engaged today” in your best sad voice? ...or... "That guy just sneezed all over you" in a voice full of Happiness?

Other players will have to guess which Emotion you are using. Here’s the catch – no one except you knows which Emotion card you drew, the Sentence and Emotion rarely match, and you only get 1 shot at your delivery.

It's a science experiment of your brain vs your mouth. Emotional IQ is designed by Bryan Sloan and illustrated by Roman Shipunov.
