How it works

Choose a difficulty, then draw a prompt for each turn. The list holds 30 silent-acting prompts sorted into easy, medium, and hard groups, and duplicate protection keeps a batch varied.

Useful for

  • Family game nights
  • Drama warm-ups
  • Classroom activities
  • Party icebreakers
  • ESL speaking practice

A quick tip

Have one player read the prompt privately and act it out while their team guesses.

Easy, medium, and hard prompts

Easy prompts are single, familiar actions such as brushing your teeth or flying a kite. Medium prompts add a small complication, like walking a dog in the rain. Hard prompts describe a scene or an awkward situation, so they reward planning and exaggerated acting.

Running a fair round

Show the prompt to the actor only, agree on a time limit, and decide in advance whether pointing at objects or mouthing words is allowed. Teams guess aloud while the actor stays silent. Rotate who draws so everyone gets a turn.

Getting more from a small list

Each difficulty has ten prompts, so a long game will repeat material. Combine difficulties, let teams choose a category, or ask players to add their own prompt to the hat between rounds.
