400 Cards, 1 Timer
Setup
You've already removed the lid from this box to read these instructions. Great start. Place the open box and the timer in the center of the group.
1 person is the designated JUDGE each round. The JUDGE starts each round by flipping the timer and holding up the front of the card. They also are in charge of drawing new cards as the group guesses them.
Whoever's reading these instructions is the first JUDGE. It's time to let someone else try to figure things out for once.
How to Play
Free-for-All
Each round lasts for 60 seconds or until 3 cards have been figured out—whichever comes first!
Take the cards out of the box 1 at a time. You must decode one before you can draw another.
You already have your JUDGE. Everybody else is a TRANSLATOR. The TRANSLATORS read the front of the card aloud. Whoever decodes the phrase first wins the card.
Having trouble? Ask for a hint! The JUDGE is allowed to reveal 1 hint (found on the back of the card) per round.
When the card has been decoded or the TRANSLATORS have elected to pass, the JUDGE pulls the next card.
Once the timer runs out or 3 cards have been decoded, the round is over, and the next JUDGE (rotating clockwise) starts a new round.
The first player to decode 10 cards is the winner.
For Larger Groups
Split into 2 teams. Follow the instructions for Free-for-All, except instead of playing to 10, each team will play 3 rounds. Whichever team has decoded more cards at the end wins.
If both teams are tied after 3 rounds, each team nominates 1 TRANSLATOR for a sudden death tiebreaker. Whichever TRANSLATOR decodes the card first wins the game for their team!
