What is this game?
In Word Cat, friends set words for each other, take turns asking questions and try to guess their own word. You can see everyone else’s word, but not your own. Shared memories make great prompts.
How do we start?
- At least two players join the room; the app selects a theme.
- Set a word for the next player, or use a random word.
- Ask questions in turn and listen to your friends’ hints. Confirm your guess and see the results together.
Players and devices
Player-written words turn shared memories into a game. Keep your prompts respectful.
