Pass the Word

Pass the Word is a cooperative party game. Everyone plays together to get the best score! Each player takes a card from the deck of the chosen category and a card from the numbers deck. Your number card indicates which of the secret mystery words on your category card another player must guess. Players check their cards and then place them face down beside them. Each player writes their name at the bottom of their clue sheet. Then, simultaneously each player writes on the top line of their clue sheet a word that gives a clue to their mystery word. Then they pass their clue sheet to the player to their left. Read the word on your new clue sheet, then turn the page to cover the word. Directly below the covered word, write a new word that is a clue to the covered word and belongs to the chosen category. Then pass your clue sheet back to the player on your left. Repeat this phase three times until each clue sheet contains three words, two of which are covered. In the next phase, each player takes the category card from the player whose name is on the clue sheet they were just dealt. Using the last revealed word on their current clue sheet, the player attempts to guess the mystery word on the drawn category card. Players work together to guess as many mystery words as possible!
