Guess the Word rules
Guess the Word is the phone-on-your-forehead game. You can't see the word, everyone can except you. Your friends give you clues or act it out, and you shout your answer.
Got it? Tilt your head forward. Stuck? Tilt it back to pass. Pick your themes, the round length (30 to 90 seconds) and see who finds the most.
An example round
The word is "Giraffe". Your friends: "animal", "super long neck", "Africa"… You yell "Giraffe!", tip your head forward, next word. 60 seconds: how many can you get?
