The Ultimate Word Association Game
For 4+ players (2 teams) • 15-30 minutes
1 Spymaster + Field Operatives working together to find all red words
1 Spymaster + Field Operatives working together to find all blue words
25 word cards are laid out in a 5×5 grid. Some belong to Red team, some to Blue team, some are neutral, and one is the deadly Assassin!
Spymasters can see which words belong to their team. They give ONE-WORD clues + a NUMBER (e.g., "Animal 3" for 3 animal-related words).
Field operatives discuss and guess which words relate to the clue. They can guess up to NUMBER + 1 times per turn.
When a word is guessed, it's revealed. Correct = continue guessing. Wrong = turn ends. Neutral = turn ends. Assassin = INSTANT LOSS!
First team to find all their words wins! But hit the Assassin and you lose immediately.
