Word Slam Midnight

Wort definitions, a bit risqué

Words in four levels of difficulty < Beginners - e.g. Pest, Simple - e.g. Mont Blanc, Advanced - e.g. Competition, and Expert - e.g. Midlife Crisis > are explained using other words from a defined supply. You play in teams, using explanation cards featuring subject, verb, adjective and other kinds of words are available. You draw a card from the chosen level of difficulty. The explainers of the round for each team look at the word determined by dice roll and can select another word from the card if the first one is too difficult. Then they search their personal supply of explanation cards – both stacks are identical – and choose words that are best suited to explain the term on the card. Selected cards are put on the holder. Explainers cannot use sound, mime or and pantomime. You can rearrange cards on the holder and remove cards or place new cards, but you cannot use one card to partially cover another card to create a word fragment. The team holding the timer can decide to use it and turn it over, now both teams have only time to guess until the timer runs out. Of course, you can listen to the guesses of the other team to maybe get a hint. The first to guess the right word receives the card. For a new round, new explainers are chosen, and the timer is given to the other team. The Game ends after a predetermined number of cards, and you win with most cards.

In the adult version, too, Word Slam is a challenge, attractive but difficult! If you are fastest to search through the stack and can quickly remember words you see, you will find suitable combinations quicker - hopefully my team will understand what I want to tell them!
