Well, as the round names suggests, you have to mime the cards! No speaking is allowed but you can hum or make sound effects as your team try to guess the answers. Play continues around until all of the cards have been guessed and the scores for each team have been written down. ![]() ![]() When the sand timer stops, all the incorrectly guessed and skipped cards get shuffled back in to the deck and passed on to the next team. This round starts much like the first round with 40 cards in play but now you can only say one word for each card and the team can only make one guess for each card! However, in this round you can choose to skip a card. At the end of this round, write down how many cards were guessed correctly by each team. Once the time is up, the team pass the deck on to the next team who continue from the current card and play continues on like this until all cards have been guessed. The team can make as many guesses as they like within the time limit and once the word is correctly guessed, it goes face-up on the table and another card is player. One player from a team draws a card and has to try and get the team to guess the name on the card they can say whatever they want but they cannot skip the card, use rhymes, use words that derive from the word on the card, spell the name or translate the card in to another language. Deal out 40 cards from the deck between all of the players, if you feel a card is too difficult you can trade it for a new one and once everyone is happy, all of the cards are shuffled together to create one deck. The game is played in teams of at least two, so you need a minimum of 4 people to play, you then choose whether you will use the yellow or black side of the cards, we felt that the yellow side was slightly easier, but not a huge difference. Time’s Up Party is a fast paced card game in which you have 30 seconds to guess the names on the cards.
