What is it?

Game introduction

Give one-word clues that connect several secret words for your team.

The basic idea

Spymasters know the key. Teams discuss and guess their words while avoiding the opposing team and assassin.

Why we recommend it

Scales well for teams and rewards conversation more than board-game experience.

Party
