I Can Explain

I Can Explain is an improv party game about coming up with elaborate excuses for your mistakes. Choose a set of random words, find out what you did wrong, and call upon your friends to back you up. After all, they can’t accuse you all of lying, right?

I Can Explain can be used single-player to practice your improv skills or stir up some creative juices. However, it is most fun when played with a group.

The game comes with full instructions (which you can also see for free in the screen shots), printable/copyable blank word lists, six scenarios, and three optional random word tables with a hundred words each. You will also need at least one six-sided die and something to write with for each player. To use the optional random word tables, you will need a 100-sided die (or a digital die roller).

Accessibility is extremely important to Secret Foxfire and we've done our best to make sure everyone can enjoy the game.  If I Can Explain is not accessible to you for any reason, or if you have any other feedback, please get in touch at secretfoxfire@gmail.com. We want everyone to be able to play and are committed to correcting any errors or oversights in the production of our games.

If the $1 minimum price for this game would be a hardship for you, get in touch via email to request a free copy.

Expansion Goal: If we reach 69 sales of I Can Explain, a free expansion will be released with new word lists guaranteed to include the word "butts".
