About this game

Concept swaps words for icons: two players at a time try to get the table to guess a hidden word using nothing but colored cubes placed on a board full of pictures. Want people to guess "milk"? Point at liquid, then food, then white, and watch the table's eyes light up. It works for anything from simple nouns to a specific actor's most famous movie, and the fun is watching your own logic make sense to everyone except the two people who need it to. No reading or writing required, and the icon board does the heavy lifting, so it scales beautifully from a living room of six to a party of twelve.
