About the game

What is The Aristocrats

In 2005, Penn Jilette sponsored a contest for the DVD release of his documentary, The Aristocrats. The best submissions of the joke, The Aristocrats, would be included on the DVD.

This game was one of the submissions. It lost.

Now, Insane Game Designer Mike Young has placed it on his website free for download.

The Aristocrats card game plays just like Crazy Eights or Uno, except that you must play two cards on your turn instead of one. The object is to rid yourself of all of your cards before anyone else does the same. You tell the story/joke of The Aristocrats during the course of the game and are encouraged to be as creative, clever and, well, disgusting as possible.
