Cranium CARDS

CAmeo, CLoodle or Gnilleps

(Deutscher Titel Cranium Karten)

Cranium Cards is the „small“ version of Cranium, only with cards and without board, and obvioulsy in this version of the creative party game the tasks are set by cards. The orange stack gives the stipulations for the terms and the purple stack defines the performance category. Cameo demands a pantomimic explanation of the term without talking or sounds. Cloodle is explanation by drawing; you draw the term and cannot use letters or symbols. Listofacto is explanation by talking; you describe the term using three facts and can of course not use any part of the word in your explanation. Gnilleps challenges you to spelling the term backwards, if you are the one to do the spelling you may look at the term while spelling it, your team cannot make notes. Or you are allowed a choice of any of those four performance categories.

Depending on the number of players the opposing team writes down an answer to the orange card – in case of 2-3 players you do this yourself – and hands on this answer to the explaining player of the active team. He draws a card for the performance category, the cards also names the number of points the team scores when guessing the term correctly. When the term is guessed the team of the explainer or you yourself gets the cards. When all 12 purple performance cards have been played the game ends and the winner is the team with most points on its purple cards.

Cranium Cards is a nice mix of funny and challenging tasks and a nice extension to the Cranium line and the range of creative party games, which can even be played by two and three players.
