Ravensburger That's Not a Hat, Fast Memory and Bluffing Card Game for Kids and Adults, Travel Party Game for 3 to 8 Players, Ages 8 Years and Up

This Ravensburger “That’s Not a Hat” party game is a brilliantly simple concept that turns into surprisingly chaotic and hilarious fun very quickly, making it a great choice for families, mixed-age groups, or casual game nights. The gameplay is very easy to learn in minutes, which is a big strength. Players pass cards face down while trying to remember what they “gave” or “received,” but as the round progresses, memory quickly becomes unreliable and bluffing often becomes the only way to avoid penalties. This creates a lot of laughter and light-hearted accusations, especially in larger groups. It works particularly well as a filler game because rounds are short (around 10 minutes), so it’s easy to play multiple times in one sitting. The compact box also makes it ideal for travel, holidays, or bringing out quickly at gatherings. What makes it enjoyable is how quickly things unravel — even confident players often end up second-guessing themselves, and the game naturally creates funny moments rather than serious competition. If I had one minor downside, it would be that it’s quite repetitive after several plays in a row, and it really depends on group energy. It shines with the right crowd but may feel a bit too simple for players who prefer deeper strategy games. Overall, this is a quick, entertaining party game that delivers a lot of laughs for very little setup, and it works best as a light, social game rather than a long-term strategy experience.

We had a great time playing this game, it was amusing trying to remember what was in play. Great family fun, simple design but perfect for the game and memory skills. Adults and teens loved it. The rules are simple, it’s more about memory and laughing when you forget your own card.

Great fun, it's harder than you'd think which makes it super funny and entertaining! It's easy to understand the rules, easy to play, great value for money, and the box is nice and small.

That’s not a hat is a fast paced memory game of remembering a number of simple pictures as cards more around the table face down. It’s one of those games that you will either love or hate! Cards have clear simple line drawings of everyday objects and everyone is dealt one. Everyone reveals their card and then places it face down. Another card is drawn from the top of the deck revealed and then given face down to a player. This player passed their oldest card to the left or right depending on the arrow on the back and says ‘this is a telephone’ the next player accepts this and so it carries on or calls them out with the loser of the call keeping the card as punishment. Easy to learn, fun and a great price. It will be too stressful for some people though so bear that in mind.

Great game to play with adults and children alike!

The funniest game I’ve played in ages. We had players between the ages of 12 to 70 playing and we were all crying.

A fun party game but it can get very repetitive very quickly.

For the price this game is great and I have purchased multiple copies. It is really simple but at the same time soooo confusing. I’ve found that playing it in groups the kids usually do better than the adults because of their sharper memories :)

Its really fun and easy group game but tests your memory Cards are good quality 👍

Très sympa avec des amis ou en famille. Les explications sont courtes, on comprend vite le principe. Mais c’est pas pour autant plus facile. Très amusant.

Very fun yet confusing game 😁 100% recommend.

Friends and I had a great time laughing and playing this game together
