GAME MATERIALS:
(played on zoom)
RULES
All players must go to Quizlet to get hints: https://quizlet.com/506434672/cubizoom-flash-cards/?x=1jqt
One player (who becomes the artist) must start and everyone else must go into a breakout room. After a minute in this room, they can return to the game. During this minute the artist must draw the clue on the Zoom “whiteboard”.
As soon as everyone has returned from the breakout room, the artist must stop drawing and the others must create a title for the drawing on the whiteboard. Subsequently, all players vote for their favorite title, including the artist. In the event of a tie, it is the artist who decides between the ties.
