4-8 Players
TO GO
®
    Starting the Game
1. Remove the red apple cards and the green apple cards from the box. Set the box aside.
2. Choose a player to be the rst judge.
3. The judge deals seven red apple cards, face
down, to each player (including him or herself). Players may look at their cards.
Hold the cards in your
hand like this so you can
see the card titles.
The Game of Hilarious Comparisons!
Apples to Apples® To Go is the wild card and party game that
provides instant fun-on-the-run for four to eight players!
Quick, easy and portable, it’s as simple as comparing “apples to apples.” Just open the convenient travel box, deal the cards, and you’re ready to play! Select the card from your hand that you think is best described by a card played by the judge. If the judge picks your card, you win that round. And everyone gets a chance to be the judge!
Each round is filled with surprising and outrageous comparisons from a wide range of people, places, things and events.
    What’s in the Box
• Red Apple Cards – 270 cards, each featuring the name of a person, place, thing or event.
• Green Apple Cards –
of a person, place, thing or event.
• Quick Play Rules
90 cards, each featuring a characteristic
    Playing the Game
2. Players (except the judge) quickly choose the red apple card from their hand that is best described by the word on the green apple card played by the judge. Players place these red apple cards face down on the table.
Quick Pick Option:
With ve or more players, you might want to try the Quick Pick
Option. The last red apple card placed on the table will not be judged and is returned to that player’s hand. If you snooze, you lose!
3. The judge mixes the red apple cards so no one knows who played which card. The judge turns over each red apple card, reads it aloud, and then selects the one he or she thinks is best described by the word on the green apple card. The player of the selected red apple card is awarded the green apple card played by the judge.
4. To keep score, players keep the green apple cards they have won, on the table, until the end of the game.
5. The judge collects all of the red apple cards played during that round and discards them into an empty well in the box bottom.
6.
The card decks, and the role of judge, pass to the player on the
left. The new judge deals enough red apple cards to bring each player’s hand back up to seven.
7. Play continues following steps 1-6 until someone has earned enough green apple cards to win the game!
    Setting Up
1. Open the red apple card packs and thoroughly mix all the red apple cards. Evenly distribute them between the two side-by­side wells in the box bottom.
2. Open the green apple card pack and thoroughly mix the green apple cards. Place them in the single well next to the red apple cards.

    Want to Play Again?
Discard all the red and green apple cards used in the game, shufe them and return them to the bottom of the red and green card stacks. The next judge starts with a fresh set of cards and deals seven new red apple cards to each player. You’re ready to play!
The card combinations in Apples to Apples® To Go are virtually limitless.
  Playing Tips
It’s OK to play a red apple card that isn’t a perfect t. Judges will often pick the most creative, humorous or interesting response.
Lobbying and “table talk” are encouraged! Players can comment on cards and try to convince the judge to pick a particular card – either their own or a favorite choice.
Playing red apple cards that appeal to the judge can improve your chances of winning. This is often called “playing to the judge.”
Red apple cards that begin with “My” should be read from the judge’s point of view. For example, when the judge reads “My Love Life,” it should be assumed that it is the judge’s love life that is being described by the word on the green apple card.
Apples to Apples® Variations
After you’ve played the basic game, try these variations —
Scrambled Apples
For even more hilarity, combine the cards from your TO GO box with cards from the APPLES TO APPLES® PARTY BOX and PARTY BOX EXPANSION ONE. Because none of these sets contain
duplicate cards, mixing them together will allow you to generate
thousands of outrageous new comparisons!
Crab Apples
For a tart twist, choose and judge red apple cards that are the
least like, or the opposite of, the word on the green apple card. For example, you might choose “Gas Station Restrooms” when the green card “Classy” is played.
Bottom of the Barrel
For a clever way to wind down a game, players must play out the seven cards in their hands, without redrawing. As players deplete
the red apple cards from their hands, the choices become more and
more challenging!
Apple Potpourri
For an unpredictable mix, each player selects a red apple card
from his or her hand before the judge turns over the green apple card. After the red apple cards are played, the judge turns over a green apple card. As usual, the judge then selects the winning red
apple card!

2 for 1 Apples
For a real deal, the judge turns over two green apple cards to start
the round. Each player selects the red apple card from his or her
hand that is best described by both green apple cards. After the
judge selects a red apple card, both of the green apple cards are
awarded to the winner.
Quick Pick for Four
With a group of four, players may play one or two red apple cards
from their hands. Players attempting to play two cards must place
them on the table, one card at a time. Only the first four red apple cards placed on the table will be judged.
