description Articulate! Overview

Articulate! is a team-based word-description board game published by Drumond Park and widely played in the United Kingdom. Players attempt to make teammates identify words from categories such as people, objects, nature, actions, world, and random subjects, while avoiding direct derivatives, spelling, or rhyming clues. Progress is governed by the number of correct answers produced within a timed turn, making the game suitable for parties and groups comfortable with rapid verbal clue-giving.

help Articulate! FAQ

How does Articulate! work?

A player describes words to teammates while avoiding the answer itself, and the team tries to guess as many as possible before the 30-second timer ends. Correct guesses move the team around the board. [Official Articulate! rules](https://articulategame.com/rules/)

What can the describer not say in Articulate!?

The describer cannot simply say the answer or use direct spelling and letter clues to reveal it. If a description breaks the game's rules, the official rules state that the team's turn is forfeited. [Official Articulate! rules](https://articulategame.com/rules/)

How many people can play the standard Articulate!?

The standard game is commonly listed for 4 to 20 or more players, divided into teams. That makes it suited to a family gathering or party rather than only a two-player word duel. [Articulate!](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Articulate%21)
