Analyzing The Box & The Cards

People, your favorite part has just started. Ik, all of them are your favorite, but… Back to our point, let me give you a hint: the box is yellow! Have you ever seen a card game with a yellow box? You’ll see it now, baby!

Too much yellow, isn’t it? You should say no! There’s never too much yellow, keep that in mind! There’s not much information in the front, as usual. The game name, the edition below (His & Hers), the Instagram page, and that website we mentioned previously. That’s all. 

We’ll take a look at the back as well, we never ignore it:

Surprisingly, the back doesn’t tell many details, but, we’ll take care of that part! All that’s explained are 3 basic rules on how to play the game and some copyrights on the bottom. Simple & pretty, isn’t it?

We’re done with the box, there’s nothing else left. Wait, there’s something left: the inside of the box! The irreplaceable cards! Take a look at them:

Let me repeat it once more: there are 52 cards in the deck. All cards are made in only 2 colors: black and yellow. Usually, there’s lots of text written on them, the letters, once more, are in yellow or black. To be honest, we love how they look!

Wanna see some more cards? Fine!

Oh, this card’s about to solve tons of problems, isn’t it? We know your partner won’t love this shut-it-down card, but, who cares! 

These cards are all better than the others! The food envy card is a whole new level… No more meals that suck! 

You’re asking me what’s my personal favorite? Well, I’d definitely go with the second one. Your bae definitely deserves this sick day bae card. It’s a treat! 

No more cards, for now, let them remain our sweet secret… 

How Do You Play SERVD?

When we told you we are about to explain everything meticulously, this is what we meant! A whole section explaining the instructions. How thoughtful is that! 

You may find the instructions cards inside the SERVD box. There’s a short description of the game, a little explanation about how the cards are played, and of course, how the game flow goes. Do you think that isn’t enough? Keep calm, we’ll start explaining in a bit! 

First things first, split the deck in two. Yes, 1 pile for each one of you. Make sure you don’t use each other’s cards. Next, agree on a timeframe. This is actually what makes the game pretty unique. You won’t have to complete all challenges in one night/day. The timeframe could be however you want, 1 week, 1 month, 6 months, 1 year, it’s all up to you! 

After you complete these two steps, make sure you start serving cards whenever you think it’s needed. Keep in mind that you might also play cards on top of your partners and shut them down, counteract, and more. Turns out you’ll need a bit of strategy, huh?

Something else important to know is that one card can only be used 1 time. Once you serve it, it’s gone. Yeah, be careful to find the perfect moment. It doesn’t come twice!

Make sure you remember that you cannot cancel cards, even if you play another card on top of your opponent’s. Also, every time you play a card, your partner should come up with a card back (unless they don’t want to). That’s how it works.

Let me remind you once more: only people over the age of 18 can play (based on the law :)) because of the content. Oh, and, it isn’t necessary to play cards only physically. You may send pictures or FaceTime to each other.  Yup, that’s all we got (for now)!

Sharing My Game Experience: Was This Card Game A Good Idea?

I stay behind the fact that card games are always good ideas! Are you curious to know how I got the game? Well, it was my and my partner’s 3d anniversary, and I ran out of gift ideas. That’s when this card game showed up, luckily! 

Of course, we did as the instructions asked us to. Divided the deck into 2 piles, and we both got ours. Deciding on the timeframe took us a while. We didn’t want it to end so fast, but either to last long, so we could both forget about it. We thought 1 month is enough, considering the fact that we’re always near each other. 

I remember I played my first card at a night-out dinner. I bet you know what that was!

What? Don’t judge me! His dessert full of chocolate looked better than I thought. Whatever belongs to him, belongs to me as well, right? 

Let’s proceed. Yes, you were carefully reading the instructions. It was now his time to play a card back. This is what he played the other week: The Namaste Today Card.

Just imagine: a girl having her mood swings, getting pissed off by every little thing, and you, a brave human, dare to play this card… I wouldn’t care if he’d told me to chill, but, we gotta play the game! 

All my partner did (after trying to convince me to stress out), was place this card in front of my face. I read it carefully and followed the instructions. Sincerely, it managed to make me calmer after these 10 deep breaths and the giant Ommm… I wish he had more of these cards though!

During the weeks we definitely played many cards. I won’t mention them all, obviously. Let’s take a look at one of my favorites. It was my time to shine:

Now, visualize this: we were at a shopping mall, and I played this card…. No words needed, huh? He had no choice other than to take off his pants. I let him survive for about 5 minutes, and then I thought he went through it enough. 

No, don’t worry, he got me back! After two days, this is what he played: 

I gotta admit it, we both enjoyed this. It kinda broke all that game tension, and of course, I and he gave shows. I won’t give details, dude! 

Honestly, we played this game around 1 year ago, and I don’t really remember every card, but I do remember that somewhere at the end of the timeframe, these were 2 of my last cards:

Oh my Lord, you have no idea how much I adored these two, especially the sorcerer stylish card. I made him wear my bras, and a cute crop top, some high heels, ahh, what else could I ask from life!!!

Besides we laughed during these extremely fun challenges, we laugh till this day remembering them. Do we recommend it? If you’re free with your partner and are up to challenges, definitely yes!

Conclusion: Is SERVD Worth It?

We already know that there are dozens of cool couples card games. What we like to emphasize is that SERVD is undoubtedly a very unique one, considering here all the characteristics we mentioned. If you think you need them to be mentioned once again, here are the pros and cons of SERVD:

What we like	What we don’t
The content is very creative; We love that there are also packs that support not only straight community; Besides couples, there are 2 editions for besties as well; The box is tiny enough to carry with you; You may play the game for as long as you want; Cards may actually help you in your relationship; Makes a great gift; There are no complicated rules at all;	It wouldn’t hurt if the packs had more cards inside; If you’ve  just met each-other, the content may be a bit embarrassing.

To be as transparent as possible, here are some comments of other people who played the game:

• “SERVD saved my marriage for real. We were having no fun at all, and we kinda lost communication. This card game brought back the sparkle, and made us create that strong bond again.”- Timothy;
• “This is great only if you’re already close with your partner since there’s some spicy stuff in there. My fiance and I played it for about 3 months, and it was unexplainably amusing!” – Ruth;
• “Seeing how fun the couples edition was, I couldn’t resist getting the Bro’s edition as well. Just a friendly reminder: if your partner/friend is kinda sensitive, make sure you go through all the cards and remove anything that may seem too much. Anyways, we didn’t need that. We had unlimited laughs & fun!”- Zachary;

Go serve some fun!
