What Were You Thinking?
Can you give the perfect clue before anyone else? What Were You Thinking is a guessing game for horrible mind readers, and it's as fun to play as it is to watch. Break into two teams. Shuffle the Letter Tiles and place them on The Board until it’s full. Pick one person from each team to be the Guesser. It’s your team’s job to get your Guesser to say the word from the Word Card by giving them a two word clue that starts with letters from The Board. For example, if your word is “Penguin,” your team might decide to give “Snow Bird” as a clue. But hurry, because if the other team yells out a clue first, their Guesser can guess before yours. If they get it right, that team gets to flip over the letters they used for a clue (Ex. if the winning clue is “waddling tuxedo,” they’d flip over “w” and “t”.) The team that flips over 5 letters in a row wins.
