Word Links - Decode the Clues
Word Links is a wordy brain game for 4 to 12 players where two teams compete by giving clues about secret words while the other team tries to decode those clues. This game will test the limits of even the most creative intellectuals. Word Links can be played live at parties in under 30 minutes or remotely over the course of days and weeks with remote friends, family, or strangers. To win, a player will need to be able to think outside the box to try and correlate your opposing team’s clues and also come up with extremely witty clues of your own.
