Whether it's siblings or roommates, sometimes it just feels good to stab someone with a foam sword. Well, thanks to Black Friday and the makers of Exploding Kittens, not only can you do just that, but you can also do it for less. Right now Walmart has Let's Hit Each Other With Fake Swords slashed to just $10, a $15 savings on the regular price. It's a perfect holiday gift or party game, so don't wait to grab this hilarious board game at a big discount.

From the makers of the best-selling Exploding Kittens game, Let's Hit Each Other With Fake Swords is a sword fighting card game designed for groups of three to six players. Players race to collect three matching cards, but to get one from another player you must sword fight for it. The cards direct you how to sword fight, with challenges like "I Gotta Pee," where you must keep your knees together the whole fight, or "Over Your Head," where you must toss the sword in the air before fighting.

The set includes 72 cards and two squishy foam swords that totally don't hurt when you hit with them. In the perfect antidote to cabin fever this winter, you can settle those little family disputes in a healthy(ish) way with a game that lets you get the wiggles out.

Why this deal matters

Not only is this game hilarious and easy to learn, but it also makes a great gift for a family member. At only $10, it's hard to go wrong, especially for anyone you know who loves silly games like Exploding Kittens or Poetry for Neanderthals. One reviewer noted, "Nothing better than a family game where you get to stab your sweet innocent little darlings when they get too hyped up. No flipping the board over disagreements, but you can bolster some lively swordplay against them." We couldn't have said it better ourselves.
