Fishbowl

How to play

Everyone writes a few names, places or phrases on cards. All cards go into the bowl, and players are split into two teams. The same cards are used in three rounds โ€“ each time the clues get tougher.

  1. Round 1 ยท Describe. Use any words to describe the card. Don't say any part of it, and no gestures.
  2. Round 2 ยท Act it out. No words, no sounds โ€“ gestures only.
  3. Round 3 ยท One word. You may say exactly one word. Lean on what you remember from earlier rounds!

On your turn, you have the timer to get your team to guess as many cards as possible. Guessed cards score a point for your team; skipped cards go back in the bowl. When your turn ends you review the cards and fix any that were missed. Most points after three rounds wins.

Tip: play on a video call so everyone can hear the guesses โ€“ the clue giver taps Got it! when their team says the right answer.
