Read the full game description
Party Alias expands the familiar word-explaining race into a louder team game. A clue giver tries to make teammates guess as many card words as possible without using the word itself, and correct answers move the team pawn toward the finish. Landing on Party spaces changes the challenge with acting, role play, storytelling, celebrity clues, or other performance constraints. The rules are light, the player count is generous, and success depends on fast communication and knowing how your teammates think.
