Speed Game: ten seconds, no mercy

In Speed Game there is no time to think. You get a category, a letter and ten seconds. No Bim Bam Bonuses, no extra rules: just you, the hourglass and a word that has to come out now. It is the mode for groups that already know the classic game and want to turn up the pace.

Why Speed Game is so addictive

Ten seconds feels long until the hourglass starts. The heartbeat in the background speeds up, the whole table watches and the first word that comes to mind is usually the best one. Turns are short, so you easily play three or four games in a row. Whoever is wrong or late lands on JILLA and skips a turn.

Who is this mode for?

Speed Game works best with 3 to 6 players who know each other a little. It is a great warm-up at the start of the night or a quick game in between. Want it even crazier? Try Extreme: a short timer too, but with bonuses.
