HOW TO PLAY
1

Prepare a stack of cards each naming a broad category, such as fruits or movie titles.

2

Draw a card and read the category aloud, then start a short timer.

3

Teams take turns naming one new item in that category without repeating an item already said.

4

A team is eliminated from the round if they repeat an item, stall too long, or the timer runs out on their turn.

5

The last team still able to name a valid item wins that round's point.
