About NEXT
NEXT is quick to play and easy to explain: Each person thinks of a chain of 6-8 words that the team must later guess. However, they only have the first letter of each word to go by. Sounds easy? It is! All you need is a little creativity and a good sense of your fellow players. NEXT is a cooperative word game full of surprising associations, bizarre trains of thought, and sudden moments of revelation. Each letter brings you a step closer—or to completely new ideas. Whether as a quick party game or a campaign with 30 varied scenarios, NEXT is as flexible as you are! With each successfully completed scenario, the difficulty level increases. Can you coordinate as a group and master all the challenges? —description from the publisher
