Why it works as a party game

This is the phone party game that still needs a crowd. The phone is a card. The group is the clue.

How to play

  1. A player holds the phone on their forehead so the screen faces the room.
  2. The phone shows a name or a thing. Everyone else can see it. The holder cannot.
  3. The group gives short clues, or answers yes and no, while a 60-second timer runs.
  4. A correct guess scores a point. Pass the phone to the left.

Hosting tips

  • Use a list you wrote, not a random generator full of names half the room does not know.
  • Clues cannot contain part of the word.
  • Three rounds each is plenty. Arms get tired before the jokes do.
