Frequently asked questions

How does the actor see the prompt secretly?

They tap to reveal it on the host's device before the timer starts — only they see the screen.

What can't the actor do?

No words, no mouthing, no pointing at objects that ARE the answer. Sound effects are a house-rules battleground.

How long is a turn?

Sixty seconds on the built-in timer — long enough for 2–3 prompts by a committed actor.
