CultureTags Card Game – Know Your Hashtags & Pop Culture References
CultureTags is a fast-paced party card game where players guess the meaning of popular hashtags, phrases, and cultural references from categories like Black Twitter, Church, Daily Sayings, and more. Designed for ages 13 and up, this game includes 350 cards, a sand timer, and blank DIY cards for custom rounds. It’s a fun way to test how well you really know internet and everyday culture.
What Makes CultureTags Different?
Instead of trivia or word guessing, CultureTags focuses on the inside jokes, sayings, and hashtags that define modern culture. If you've seen “WHHW” online, you already get the idea. The game is built around seven distinct categories that reflect real conversations, memes, and moments: Black Twitter, Church, Daily Sayings, Family & Friends, Songs & Lyrics, TV & Film, and Words to Live By. That variety keeps every round fresh and relatable.
What’s Inside the Box
- 350 CultureTag cards across 7 categories
- Sand timer (30 seconds)
- Dry erase marker
- 5 blank DIY cards so you can write your own CultureTags
- Instructions for multiple play styles
The box is compact enough to take to parties, family reunions, or even use for virtual game nights. All components are designed for quick setup and easy cleanup.
How to Play CultureTags
One player draws a card, announces the category, and starts giving hints without using the exact words on the card. The other players shout out guesses. The sand timer adds pressure. Points are awarded for correct guesses, but the real fun is the laughter when someone totally misses a reference that everyone else knows. You can play in teams or individually, and the blank cards let you add inside jokes specific to your group.
Who Is This Game For?
CultureTags is recommended for ages 13 and up because many references come from social media, music, and adult conversations. It works great as a family game for teenagers and parents, or as a party game among friends. Since it’s black-owned (created by the makers of Because of Them We Can), it also brings representation to the game aisle. It makes a thoughtful gift for holidays, birthdays, housewarmings, or as a stocking stuffer.
