Description

Inklings is a party game that's all about wordplay and teamwork. Designed for 4 to 6 players, it's easy to learn and can be played in just 45 minutes. The goal is to come up with the shortest possible clues for a set of seven words in a given category, and then hope your teammates can guess what they are. Each player gets a card with the words and a wipe-off board to write their clues, which are then displayed for their teammates to decipher. The game is a blast to play, especially with a larger group of friends. The time pressure adds an extra level of excitement, as teammates scramble to guess the words before the other team gets a chance. With its simple rules and fast-paced gameplay, it's no wonder Inklings was a hit when it was first published in 1993, even winning awards like Games Magazine's Game of the Year.
