Objective:
To educate and engage players on various topics—such as Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR)—in a fun, team-based board game format. The ultimate goal is to move across the game board by correctly guessing the exact phrases or terms described from a deck of topic-based cards.
Game Components:
- Deck of Cards:
- Cards are divided into different topics (e.g., Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights).
- Each card contains a word or phrase related to the topic.
- Game Board:
- A path or track where teams move their game pieces (dice-based progression).
- Dice:
- Used to move the team’s token forward on the board when a correct guess is made.
- Timer:
- 20 seconds per round for guessing.
Players: The game is played by two teams.
- Each team must choose one Describer per round.
- The rest of the team acts as Guessers.
Gameplay Rules:
- Start of the Turn:
- Team A selects a Describer for the round.
- The Describer draws a random card from the deck without showing it to the team.
- The Describer reads the card silently and gives a verbal description to their team without saying the actual words on the card.
- Describing the Card:
- The Describer can use explanations, associations, or clues.
- However, they must not use any part of the actual word or phrase on the card.
- Example: If the card says “Condom,” the Describer might say, “It’s a protective item used during sexual activity to prevent pregnancy and STIs.”
- Guessing:
- The rest of the team has 20 seconds to guess the exact word or phrase written on the card.
- If they guess it correctly, the team rolls the dice and moves forward the number of spaces shown.
- Wrong Guess:
- If Team A fails to guess correctly within 20 seconds:
- Team B now takes a turn. They pick a new Describer and repeat the same process.
- Alternating Turns:
- Teams alternate turns with a new Describer chosen each round.
- Each team continues attempting to guess the exact phrase or word described by their Describer in 20 seconds.
Winning the Game:
- The first team to reach the end of the board (or the designated finish point) wins the game.
