How to play:

In the first round, each player tries to explain as many words as possible to their teammate before time runs out. You cannot use words with the same root or any similar terms. "The Hat" (the phone) is passed between players in the order shown on screen. The game continues until all words have been guessed.

In the second round, players explain words using only gestures, without speaking (similar to "Charades" or "Mime"). You cannot use objects or refer to colors, shapes, etc.

In the third round (option 1) — the player explains the word using only one word; (option 2) — the player draws the word on paper or a whiteboard without using gestures or speaking. Drawing letters is not allowed.

The team with the most correctly guessed words overall wins.
