Game
Difficulty

Press Deal for the first card.

Press Space for the next card without reaching for the mouse. The timer is whatever you type in seconds, up to 600, and 0 turns it off; it starts when you press it and never on its own, and it restarts on each new card while it is running. Pass puts the card back in the deck, so it can come round again later in the round.

Accuracy. The original and Christmas prompt decks were written for this tool; Movie titles uses real film titles. All prompts are tagged by hand for acting, drawing and difficulty. Difficulty is a judgement rather than a measurement and depends on your group’s references.

Common questions

Are these movie names or invented scenes?
These are existing film titles. The original Film and TV moments category uses described scenes and tropes. The Deck selector lets you switch between those authored prompts and this title list.
How many movie titles are in each difficulty?
The deck has 7 Easy, 8 Medium and 7 Hard titles. The labels reflect our judgement for acting and drawing; knowing the film can matter more than the label. Movie titles such as The Lion King are Easy, while Rear Window is Hard.
Does this include TV shows, books or songs?
This deck contains films only, with no franchise, genre or language filter. It is a small selection, so use Pass if the group does not know a film.
Can I copy the movie charades list?
Use Next card to reveal titles, then Copy round for a numbered list of the titles dealt. Paste the list into a document if you want to print slips for a party.
