This board game include adult toys for two players – a male and a female. The game is meant for lovers – this game really isn’t a game that can be played with sexually open friends. It could be modified to be played with homosexual couples or people in polyamourous relationships. The box includes everything you should need to play the entire game through, and the entire game does take about thirty minutes.
Nookii comes packaged in a purple, sturdy box. The box should hold up to whatever you put on top of it with no problem. The box is easily opened with a lid that pulls off the bottom part of the box. Inside the box is a velvet-lined tray that holds all of your pieces. The cards actually snap into place, so everything should stay in its place -even if the box is tipped upside down or moved. There are six different sets of cards – three male, three female. There is also a timer as well as two different die. Also included is a soft, purple scarf and a door hanger that says “Do Not Disturb”. The box also comes with an instruction book to explain it all.
You see, I had to have this game. I’ve seen it around on different sex toy sites, but I honestly can never figure out why the price for this board game ends up being so high. I mean, it’s just a board game. So with that in mind, I really wanted to try out this board game and see what made it worth so much.
The game is pretty easy to play – in fact, the instruction manual is just a a very small booklet that only includes a couple pages. Each player rolls the two die – whoever gets the higher number goes first. Both players shuffle up each one of their card decks individually – then choose one card from each deck. The rest of the cards go back in the box. From there, the winning player rolls the dice again – whatever that number is goes into the timer. Then the two act out the winning player’s “Mmm” card. Then the dice are roll, the timer is set, and they act out the opposing player’s “Mmm” card. This continues with all three levels of cards – “Mmm”, “Ooh”, and “Aah”. There really is no competition here – you just play the game all the way through to add some spice to your sex life. The game is extremely easy to play, and it’s probably one of the fastest times I’ve ever had from opening the box to playing the game since the instructions are so easy. My only complaint is that opening the plastic on each set of cards did take a bit.
This game could probably be played with multiple players, but it’d be a bit more of a pain and might be a bit more confusing that way. If you wanted to add another player, I’d recommend just having the extra player pick up the three cards of the gender that they happen to be, and when it comes to performing the actions, you could double-team or just take turns. You also could play this game with homosexual couples – you’d either just have to draw the opposite gender’s cards and do some substitution, or the two of you could both draw from your own gender’s cards.
Each pile of cards has 15 different cards. They are labeled with “Mmm”, “Ooh”, and “Aah”. There are two separate sets of those – one for each gender. The cards are playing card size and easy to hold in your hand. The words are extremely easy to read as well, and the card lets you know if you’re supposed to just read or you’re supposed to read it aloud to your partner. The “Mmm” card are warm-up, the “Ooh” are fun, and the “Aah” are supposed to be naughty.
The die are two basic die that are purple with pink dots. Each dice has numbers 1 through 4 – no five or six. This means the highest possible time you can get is 8 minutes. Why the timer goes up to 12 I have no idea, but the die just go up to 8.
The timer was probably one of the biggest downsides of this kit. I’m not sure what happened to this kit, but we set our timer to five minutes and went to acting out the card. After about ten minutes, we were like “what the heck?”. We then waited for the time to count down. It took another ten minutes. It turns out that the timer, for some reason or another, seems to not be very accurate. From testing after we were done with the game, it looks like every number on the timer does represent four minutes. (So the ten is forty, the five is twenty, etc.) This is something you will have to consider when using it. It does come with a string to make it easy to hang somewhere (doorknob?). It doesn’t require any batteries or anything. It does make a ticking noise while it’s counting down, but it was oddly soothing instead of annoying.
The “Do Not Disturb” sign is a regular little doorknob sign that says “Do Not Disturb” on one side and “Please Clean the Room” on the other. I assume this is for use in hotel rooms. Since most hotel rooms now have their own little signs, this little door hanger is a little pointless, but it’s still a cute touch.
The scarf is a soft, see-through, light purple scarf. It’s pretty long – definitely like a regular scarf instead of just being a square of material. It feels soft and sensual and has nice stitching along the edges that will keep the material from unraveling or getting hurt. While it’s not luxury-quality, it’s still a high-quality scarf that fits nicely with the kit. However, it doesn’t fit so nicely into the box. This scarf is the biggest pain in the butt to place back into the box once you take it out.
While it’d be a major pain in the butt to type in the entire contents of cards here, I’ll give some examples of what they ask to you to do. The warm-up cards ask you to do some light bondage, sensual kisses, and playing with erogenous zones of the body including the breasts. The “fun” cards ask you to do some short roleplaying scenes, more sensual kissing, touching of the butt and genitals, and other bondage and playing with the scarf. The “naughty” cards ask you to do some very intimate foreplay as well as oral sex is now included. There really aren’t any cards that tell you to have sex, but after the game, if you choose, you could have sex. The neat thing about the cards is that the maker chose to make them in a unique fashion. Instead of just going “do this and this to your partner”, the cards are written out in a “do this, tell your partner to do this, do this, tell your partner to do this” that makes it fun to get some dirty talk in as well.
The game ends up being pretty fun to play. I enjoyed the lack of any sort of competitive aspect – it is just made so two lovers can really add some spice to their sex life. None of the cards tell you to have straight-up intercourse, but the three different stages of sex really end up getting you ready to want to have sex after the entire game is played. It does a great job of “forcibly” making you enjoy your foreplay, and it adds in ideas that, while they aren’t too kinky, still will have couples enjoying the extra foreplay. Thanks so much to MyPleasure Sex Toys for sending me this adult board game, and you can get your own copy of Nookii if it interests you.
