This is a game of split second
charades. The aim is to score the most points by guessing acted out words and
retrieve the Guesstures card placed in the timer. Players are working
against the clock; the timer is shaped of
a clapperboard and as time runs out, swallows the
guesstures card. Points are lost if the card is not
retrieved in time. The game is played in two rounds, round one is played with
the blue set of cards. Four cards are used and inserted into the clapperboard
timer. The first player then enacts the words from these 4 cards in turn.
Play continues with the blue cards until all players on both teams have played a
turn. Round two is played with the red set of cards. The cards have different
levels of difficulty. The blue cards are levels one and three; the red cards
are levels two and four. Players can choose what level of difficulty they
wish to play. The higher the level, the higher the points but also the higher
the risk.

A great team game which takes the
classic game of Charades and develops it to a more interesting level.
The clapperboard has a clockwork timer mechanism. It also doubles up as a
scoreboard. The crayon supplied marks the score on the side of the unit and
is wiped clean at the end of play.
