Laughter 'til tears

 

POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS WARNING

So much fun!

I first played “What’s a DAME to do?!” with my mother, aunt and sister at the beach…we couldn't get enough!! The men on vacation were so curious as to why we were having so much fun! I am getting this game for every DAME in my life this Christmas!

We had a blast!

Worth every penny!

Although I’m trying not to spend too much money these days, this was a purchase I’m glad I made. My friends and I have already had hours of fun with this game. It’s sure to become a classic with our group. We all bring some snacks and wine and it makes for a cheap and fun girls' night in.

I absolutely love this game!

My roommates and I play every week when we're doing laundry. It's a weekly must!! We laugh so hard every single time. I think it brings us all closer together, you learn A LOT about your friends. Haha!
We love it so much I brought it home with me and played with my mom and her girlfriends and laughed even harder. They're all addicted now. Trust me, a bottle of wine or some margaritas, a couple of girlfriends and this game will set you up for the most hilarious night ever! What’s a Dame to Do is a total must have!!

Belly laughs! A game for any dame!

I consider belly laughs to be the pinnacle of a good time. Playing What's A Dame To Do?! took me up and down the pinnacle several times! The best part of this game is that it is interactional, always fresh, and based on humor, a sure recipe for a great time, every time. As I was playing it I was so excited and couldn't help but see all the possibilities; my daughter's up coming 17th birthday party, an activity for a girl's night at my house, and even a possible way to work professionally with girls on a therapeutic level to get them talking and interacting within a group. This is a game for any dame to have a great time with!

The best game I have ever played

I recently attended my 35th nursing reunion in Alberta, Canada. We played the game for the first time and laughed ourselves silly. Truly the best game I have ever played.

Just right, not too risqué

I was a little hesitant the first time I played this game, I had invited a few neighbors over for a game night and 2 of the girls I didn’t know very well so I hoped that the game wasn’t too risqué. It was just right, just racey enough to be fun. The way you play is up to the cards you choose to play so you can adjust your answers to the type of group you’re playing with. I’d probably play a little differently with my mom than I do with my friends!   I like that about this game.

Ouch!

I never laughed so hard playing a game. My cheeks hurt!
- Steph   (5/08)

It's like 'Sex & the City' meets 'Oprah'... I'm buying one for each of my friends!

This game is so much fun!! It's like 'Sex and The City' meets 'Oprah'. It's sexy and sassy but also you talk and get to know one another. You'll be amazed at how much you learn about your friends and you'll have a blast doing it. Everyone's getting one this year!!

Girls' Night Never Better

We laughed so hard!

I played ‘What’s a DAME to do?’ with two very different groups of women and both times we laughed so hard we couldn’t catch our breath! I don’t know who had more fun – my 40ish-year-old friends or my 83-year-old Aunt! I do know that I’ll never hear the word ‘Whoopsie’ again without bursting into laughter!! Both times we played we had a few cocktails so the scoring was a little tricky so we kind of revised it to suit us and it worked out great.
-Mary   Chicago, IL   (8/08)
(For players like Mary and her cocktail crew we, the Dames at games for dames, recommend watching the rules on gamesfordames.com, so much easier! Even if you’ve already started with the bubbly, you’ll catch on right away! But feel free to play anyway you’d like as long as you’re having fun!)

Beats Playing Cards or Rolling Dice by Far

What Is It?
A circular board game for gal friends, “What’s a Dame to Do?” presents a player with a dilemma and the other players must guess how she’ll resolve it. The one who most often guesses the “correct” answers wins. So what’s a dilemma? Oh, being called “Ma’m” for the first time or being hit on by a guy 20 years older than you. And possible solutions? Helpful strategies, such as speaking in a foreign accent, downing the Chardonnay or using a hose.
What We Thought
After two rounds, we initially skeptical gals were convulsed with laughter, mascara’d tears and snot running down our faces. Not attractive, but that made it even funnier. What busted us up? Potty humor, of course. When faced with the horror of overflowing the toilet at a friend’s housewarming party, our very well-mannered Southern colleague was presented with such helpful solutions as “Speak with a foreign accent!” “Make a game of it!” and “Start a trend!” We all (including she) agreed that the second choice was her best bet, and we’ve haven’t been the same since.
Why They’ll Want It
”What’s a Dame to Do?” is an outrageously funny game that reminds us all of those uncomfortable moments that require quick thinking and creative resolutions. It’s a great game for friends, enemies, co-workers, sisters, moms and great-grandmas. Any woman with a bit of “experience” can relate. Got problems, sorrows, embarrassments? “Make a game of it!” — That’s what they did at Sisters 2 Inc. and we three dames think it’s gonna be all right.

the what's a dame to do? game sheds some light on how girlawhirl's friends might handle sticky situations

GIRLAWHIRL.COM

Girlawhirl thinks she knows her Super Pals well enough to determine how each of them would react in uncomfortable situations. But the new game What's A Dame to Do? puts Girlawhirl's knowledge to the test. At their next girlfriend gathering, instead of a simple game of chance, Girlawhirl's whipping out this new question and answer game to find out once and for all how well she really knows her friends. There's sure to be plenty of laughs along the way...Each round one player is put on the spot with a "Dame Dilemma" - such as having to deal with the aftermath of letting an untrained friend highlight your hair, seeing a rude woman exiting the bathroom with her skirt tucked into her pantyhose or hearing her pants split five minutes into yoga class. Next, everyone else offers up reactions from the cards they have been dealt - like "Get out the scissors" or "Declare cocktail hour." Points are awarded to everyone who correctly guessed what the hot-seated Super Pal would actually do when faced with a similar dilemma. There are even bonus points awarded for the most hilarious possible solution to the posed problem. In addition to finding out just how well she knows her Super Pals, Girlawhirl's sure she'll come up with some creative ways to handle sticky social situations. -Girlawhirl.com
