How to play Guess!
Guess the secret word, phrase, or name
Also called Charades
What you need
Split into two or more teams. Grab paper and a marker if anyone wants to draw.
On your turn
One player (or the whole team except one player) gives clues for the word on the card — act it out, draw it, or describe it — without saying the word. The guessers shout answers until time runs out; one point per correct guess.
Reference
Act, draw, or describe — clue-giver's choice, but never say the word. Correct guess: +1. Pass: skip the card (limited per turn). When the words run out, shuffle them back in and keep playing — or end the game.
Ways to Play
- Act it out Recommended — no talking
- Say anything but the word
- Say one word only
- Draw it — no words or letters
