About Word Whimsy

Word Whimsy is a party game that uses "prompt cards" to set the theme for each round, such as "Good Name for a Metal Band" or "Most Likely to Win in a Fight". Players then use word cards to build a title or phrase that fits the theme. One player is the judge and awards points to the best entry.
