HOW TO PLAY

Start here.

YOU’LL NEEDA call and ordinary objects within reach
  1. 1One player makes a sound with their voice, hands, or one object while keeping its source unseen; on video, move it outside the frame.
  2. 2Everyone else gets one guess per turn. After three wrong guesses, the sound-maker gives one clue about the action but not the object.
  3. 3The first correct guess earns one point and becomes the next sound-maker. If nobody guesses after two clues, the sound-maker earns one point and reveals it.
  4. 4Continue until everyone has made two sounds. Highest score wins.
