Design

With a square-shaped game board in nice colors and three (four including the fantasy cards), monogamy is a very pretty board game. If you didn´t know what monogamy was, you probably wouldn´t know that this board game is an erotic couple´s game. No nudes, just a classy game. It´s colorful and the board is a bit shiny. The design is simple, and you could, almost, understand how to play by just looking at it.

Ease of Use

Monogamy is very simple to play, so it´s pretty much just to get into the right sexy excited mood and go ahead. The game is supposed to take about 90 minutes, I would say if you are doing it as you are supposed to, it will take way longer. You could also create your own version of it, and take less time. It´s a game where you progressively become more intimate and the challenges become more of an effort. Some of the challenges are not possible to do at once and some require a bit of preparation. There are different levels; intimate, passionate, and steamy. This means you can set the game to your own level and stay on one level if you feel that the next is too much. But do go out of your comfort zone, don't stop just because you're comfortable.

Quality

The board for Monogamy erotic game is made out of high-quality cardboard and the cards in a classic card pack material. One might wish that the cards were waterproof or at least splash-proof, you never know where the lube or massage oil will end up. The small game pieces are all in plastic which make them easy to clean.

Price

For the number of cards - 400 different ones, I would say it´s definitely worth the price. It will take a few times before you go through them, and they are easy to twist around if you want to continue playing. Monogamy will help you and your partner to talk about things you never had and spice up your sex life, for that, I would say Monogamy is totally worth it. But I'm sure there are other erotic couple games similar to monogamy that are more equal and open-minded in their challenges.

Performance

It's a fun game if it's seen that there is a lot of variation and levels up as you play. But, we found it to be a very old-school game if you look at the difference in challenges for men and women, and it's also only adapted to heterosexual couples (it didn't affect us, as we are a heterosexual couple, but still). Of course, others can play it too, but might not feel that nice to know it's not made for you. On the intimate level, I liked it, or at at least it was a good conversation starter and pretty equal for both men and women. It could be good to just take some of these cards and ask each other the question in the bar/restaurant too. However, it was at the passionate and steamy level it started feeling really old-schooled. It was always for the "her-cards" to tell a story, and explain something and for the "his-cards" it was an action required, such as setting up dinner, surprising her with her favorite x... So it felt like we'd gone back in time. I also found the fantasy cards to be a bit too much of an effort if the goal is actually to play all evening, some required a bit of planning which was a bit annoying and we had to skip them. Some cards also involved"treats" which were challenges for the coming week or further ahead, this also felt a bit annoying.

Packaging

It´s not much to say really about the packaging, it´s a pretty big game which means it might be a bit annoying to take with you for travels or sexy hotel nights. But it´s high-quality, it doesn´t draw too much attention and looks nice. What´s included: a Game board, 250 playing cards, dice, and game pieces.

Materials and care

In an erotic game like Monogamy you don´t really need to take care of or clean, maybe just wipe it off with a cloth if needed. It could be a good idea to prepare with some lube, oil, and maybe other sex toys so you don't have to go looking for them during the game.
