I have been getting quite a few games off of Eden Fantasys lately to review for the site. I have loved all of them so far. So, since I love board games and I love sex, I also love sexually induced entertainment. I decided to try the game Family Jewels. I love the classic game of Clue so I figured this sex injected version of the who, what, and where game would be really fun! This version adds a ‘which’ to the traditional murder mystery deduction game too, making it even more fun.

California Exotic Novelties usually gets a thumbs up from me in the sex toy department. I have three California Exotic board games, and they aren’t as good at making these. I say this because the instructions to their games are vague and or confusing usually. But the nice thing about this game, Family Jewels, is since it is based on a well known game I didn’t have any trouble figuring out how to play it. There are some additional rules that make it a bit more interesting though. The only thing not provided in the game is writing utensils, which I think should have been included.

You can play with 3-6 people just like in Clue. You have to go around the Red Light District, trying to pick up clues, to figure out who in the family is siphoning off what family jewels; to pay for what sexual favors or erotic adventures, and in which place. With three people the game takes roughly 45 minutes. Some of the extra rules seemed a bit annoying or unnecessary. But the game can easily be played without them.

The thing I like about this particular game is that it is adult, without requiring sexual acts from one another or ridiculous dares or truths. It is funny and whimsical without making any one uncomfortable. The game box can be kept out in the open. It isn't explicitly sexual and can fit in with the rest of your board games.

The first time I played it, I actually only had me and one other person. The game can be played with only two with a bit of modification. You deal the character, sex act, jewel, and location cards as if there are three people playing. Then the extra set gets placed face down in various locations on the board. The first player to get to a room with a card adds that card to their hand. This makes the game a bit more difficult because you have to re-ask scenarios to the other character. I liked this because it made the game longer.

I recently played this with a group of friends. It was so much fun! Even better with a large group of people. It was a great ice-breaker and a source of humor for the guests. It was easy to explain and everyone seemed to enjoy it. Some got quite competitive, which I loved! Still a much have for your adult game collection!
