It depends on your group size and game duration. We recommend 5-10 words per player as a starting point, but you can always generate more during the game!
Can you talk in charades?
No talking, mouthing, or sound effects are allowed. Stick to gestures, facial expressions, and the category signals outlined in our How to Use guide.
How do you play charades with a large group or in teams?
Split big groups into squads of 3-6 players, rotate clue givers every round, and alternate 60-second turns so the pacing stays lively. Our Quick-Play Kit template makes score tracking painless.
How do you act out “marry” in charades?
Use a wedding mini-story: mime holding a bouquet, pretend to slide a ring on someone’s finger, then clasp your hands over your heart. It communicates the idea instantly without needing props.
