Charades

How it works

1. One player secretly gets a word or phrase.
2. They act it out on camera with no talking.
3. The rest of the room guesses in chat or out loud.
4. First correct guess scores. Rotate to the next actor.

Best for

Mixed groups, families, and anyone who wants a classic that works on a video call.

3–8 players
