Description
Don't Get Got! is a party game in which each player receives six secret missions. The first player to complete three of these missions wins.
You don't sit at a table to complete missions, though. This game is designed to run in the background of whatever else you have going on, which means you can play it anywhere — at home, on holiday, in the office, or yes, at a party.
Mission examples include getting a player to compliment your hair, hiding this card in a jar and getting another player to open it for you;, and making up a word and getting a player to ask what it means.

Quotes (from this video)
- Rudolph. We haven't played it yet, but it is Rudolph themed, so it's holiday themed, so I think it'd be great. We're definitely going to be pulling it out this Christmas.
- when you open it up and you look at it, it's very much so. Like there's there's Holly and like mistletoe and cranberry and all of the m the mice are dressed with their little cute scarves.
- It's a cooperative game. you're all working together to get Frodies to Mordor.
- And I just think that this there's something. It's not Christmas themed. It's not holiday themed, but there's something like about this game that's just very magical.
- It's cozy, it's quick, it's simple, it's festive.
- Santa versus Krampus. That's very holiday theme.
- which is the Christmas themed one. And this is like has a 3D tree and you're booping ornaments off of it.
- So, I would do like just a big batch of chili with different toppings.
- And when you order in takeout, especially like I don't know about everywhere, but here like for our Chinese food, it's always so much food. You can feed an army with what you're ordering.
- I personally prefer the Jim Carrey one or the old like the original Grinch. Those are the best ones.
- Elf is I don't know if you guys knew this, but Elf is literally my favorite movie of all time. not just Christmas movie. It is my favorite movie of all time.
- This is a perfect movie. T the season to be jolly and joyous.
- I think that could be really fun. You could have a table for like ornament decorating or cookie decorating. I think it would be really fun to do like build your own gingerbread houses or mele gingerbread decorating.
- I almost said Nightmare Before Christmas. I'm sure there's a book about that, too. But I think that could also be really fun.
