About this game
CrossTalk is a party game built on a magic trick: both teams' clue-givers secretly know the exact same word, then have to sneak hints past each other in plain sight. You start with a private clue only your own team hears, then take turns lobbing single public words back and forth, each one meant to nudge your teammates closer while leaving the enemy team clueless. Only the other team gets to guess after your clue, which turns every word choice into a small chess match. A clever Hint Board lets sharp clue-givers signal shortcuts like opposite or emphasis. First team to five correct guesses wins a loud, brain-bending party night.
