This is a reimagined version of “Top Ten”, a 2023 Spiel Des Jahres nominee by Cocktail Games. It’s a cooperative card game where you work together to sort out a bunch of nonsense. Score points by thinking like your teammates and order your cards in the correct ascending order. Read the prompts and admire the hilarious creativity of your friends.

To play That Escalated Quickly, read out a simple question (ex. I’m locked in a tiny room. What else is locked in here with me from cutest to scariest). Then everyone is assigned a secret number from one to ten. Next, each player answers the question, and the intensity of that answer is based on their secret number (ex. 1= a bunny, 10= a grizzly bear with chainsaw arms.) Finally, the person who read the question has to try and sort those answers into the correct order. If they get it right, everyone wins! This game is hilarious, energetic, and a great way to get to know your friends and family a little bit better.
