✦ Why it works

Charades only works if the audience knows you.

Standard charades gives you film titles because a stranger has to be able to guess. Two people who live together have a much better shared library than any film canon, and it is entirely made of each other.

So these are situations rather than titles: getting ready to leave the house, one of us on the phone to family, the moment we realise we are lost. The guessing is instant and the acting is the joke.

✦ Worth knowing

One phone is enough.

There is no room and no server for this one. One of you draws a prompt, does not show it, and acts. That is the whole apparatus.

There is no scoring either, deliberately. A two-person game with a scoreboard turns into a competition about four minutes in, and this one is better without.

✦ How to play

Three steps, and none of them is signing up.

1
One of you draws

Read it on your own screen. Do not show it.

2
Act it out

No words, no pointing at things. Sixty seconds is the usual limit.

3
Swap

Prompts do not repeat until the pack is used up.

✦ Questions

Charades for two, answered.

No. This one has no room at all, so one phone passed between you is how it is meant to be played.
No, on purpose. Two people keeping score at charades stops being fun quickly.
Yes, with prompts written for work rather than for a couple.

The game is free forever.
The rest of it is the hard part.

EvyOS gives two people one place for the plans, the lists and whose turn it actually is.
