Charades ideas, a timer and the score in one place
This charades generator gives the actor a random word from 240 ideas in six categories: animals, actions, jobs, sports, objects and phrases & sayings. Start a round, act out the word without speaking, tap Got it when your team guesses, or Skip a hard one.
A round timer (30–120 seconds) keeps the game moving, the score is tracked for two teams, and after every round you see which words were guessed and which were skipped. Mix categories for adults or keep animals and actions for younger kids.
How to use
- Tick the categories you want and choose the round time.
- Name the two teams. One player from the current team holds the screen.
- Press Start round and act out the word – no words, no sounds, no pointing at objects.
- Tap Got it for a correct guess or Skip. When time runs out, the other team plays.
