Snake Oil

Snake Oil If Laughter is the best medicine then ... Snake Oil ... It cures what ails ya! Now it's your turn! If the customer buys your product, you win the round!

In the Old West, the wily snake oil salesman could cleverly sell the most dubious product to the most skeptical buyer. Invent and sell your own zany 2-word products to all types of wacky customers. With over 340 wild words and 60 oddball customers, you will probably never run out of crazy new combinations! How would you sell a Burp Balloon to a ninja ... or a Rumor Mirror to a teacher? Make it ser

ious, silly, or slimy. That's the art and the fun of Snake Oil! If laughter is the best medicine, then Snake Oil cures what ails ya! Founded in 2011. Awards:

Some people have said this game is even better than the game that compares fruit in it's name (Hint: A2A) or as good as another (Hint: CAH)! Play it and see for yourself.

Thanks for including Snake Oil! ... https://www.thegamer.com/board-games-to-play-if-you-like-apples-to-apples/ ... "Where Apples to Apples and similar games usually have answers submitted anonymously and with no additional context, this game actively encourages players to sell their choice to the judge, and asks the judge to pick the best pitch, not necessarily the best cards. This comes at the cost of anonymity and creates room for bias, but the fun of playing out the exchanges between customer and salesmen more than makes up for it."🐍

All the best card-matching games out there like Apples to Apples.
