Name Burst

3–10 players · 30 min · 10+

Name Burst is a twist on your standard party guessing game (see Taboo, Pictionary, etc.). In this game, you try to get your partner to say as many of the ten names on your card as possible in the allotted time. There are very few restrictions on clues. The main twist in Name Burst is that there aren't set teams -- each player rotates giving clues to every other player, with both players scoring the full number of points each round.
