Three-Round Showdown

Make mixed-age teams. One person gives clues from their phone while others guess aloud. Reuse the same cards in all three rounds.

1. Round 1. Describe it

   Use words and sounds. Do not say the answer or any part of it.

2. Round 2. One word

   Give exactly one word. You can repeat it, but do not add gestures or sounds.

3. Round 3. Act it out

   Use gestures only. No words, sounds, or pointing to letters.

Choose team-only or open guessing before starting. The app does not police who speaks. Each marked correct answer gives one point to the clue-giver’s team, whoever guessed it. Skip without losing points. Teams take turns in order, and each team has a fair shuffled clue-giver queue.

After the buzzer, the clue-giver can credit only the final card if it was guessed in time. Everyone sees only that turn’s correct answers until the next clue-giver starts. The remaining cards shuffle between turns.

Each game draws from 300 family prompts. Your host account uses unseen built-in cards before older ones. The same chosen cards return in all three rounds. Your own family cards may repeat by choice.

Make acting comfortable for everyone. Seated gestures work. A grown-up can read a card quietly to a younger clue-giver. Choose untimed turns if your family prefers.
