GET READY
1. Divide into two teams. Alternate players in
a circle so that each player is next to a
member of the other team. Each player
needs to be able to toss the game
unit to a member of the other team
as quickly as possible. For more of a
challenge, have everyone take a few
steps back so you’re farther apart.
2. The player with the biggest hands goes
rst with the game unit! That player’s team
is TEAM 1. The opposing team is TEAM 2.
3.
Wake the game by pressing Go/Next. Select
a category by pressing the Category button
repeatedly to scroll through the various options.
4. Reset the score tracker for each team to 0.

LET’S PLAY!
When you’re ready, hit Go/Next to start the game! A
90-second timer will start and a word or phrase from
the chosen category will appear on the screen.
Get your team to guess that word or phrase by giving
them clues!
If your teammates haven’t guessed the word or phrase
after 15 seconds, the unit will beep three times and
“PASS TO TEAMMATE” will appear on the screen. Quickly toss the game unit
to a teammate, and they’ll automatically get a new word or phrase.
Do:
• Make any physical gesture and/or give almost any
verbal clue to get your team to say the word.
Don’t:
• Say a word that RHYMES with the word.
• Give the FIRST LETTER of the word.
• SAY A PART OF THE WORD in the clue (ex. “banana” for “banana split”)
Guessed It?
Once your team guesses the word, toss the unit to the player on your left
(this should be a member of the opposite team). That person makes sure
the previous answer was correct, then clicks Go/Next. A new word or
phrase will appear on the screen and it’s now their turn to give clues
and have their team guess. The round ends when the buzzer sounds to
indicate time has run out.
DON’T GET CAUGHT HOLDING THE GAME UNIT!
OBJECT
Be the rst team to reach seven points. To win points,
DON’T GET CAUGHT HOLDING THE GAME UNIT WHEN THE TIMER RUNS OUT!
• If you don’t recognize the word or phrase, try breaking it up. For example, if
the word is “Top Banana”, say “The opposite of bottom!” “Top!” “Plus a yellow
fruit!” “Banana! Top Banana!”
•The game will go to sleep after 3 minutes of not being used. To wake the game
up, just press Go/Next.
•The category can’t be changed while the timer is running. This is to ensure
that the word on the screen during gameplay is from the category the players
intended to play.
• To pause the game in the middle of a round, press the Category button.
Press it again to resume play.
TIPS & TRICKS
REMEMBER
Remember: your team MUST correctly guess the word or phrase before you
can toss the game unit to the opposing team!
SCORING
When the buzzer sounds, time’s up. The team NOT holding the unit gets one
point. For an extra point, they can guess the word the losing team couldn’t get.
If their guess is correct, they get one BONUS point (scoring a total of two points
for the round).
You can keep track of points using the sliders on the game unit.
After you’ve scored for the round just played, the team holding the unit begins
the next round.
The player holding the unit when the timer went off starts the next round. Pick a
category with the Category button and press the Go/Next button to start the timer.
HOW TO WIN
The rst team to reach seven points wins!
To shut the game unit off, press and hold both buttons for 3 seconds.
