Telephone
Write, draw and guess in a chain - the sentence that comes out the other end is never the one you started with.
Multiplayer Party 4-8 players
How to play
4-8 players take turns writing a starting phrase, then the chain passes player to player: each round alternates between drawing what you were just handed and guessing what someone else's drawing shows, until every chain has gone all the way around the table. No scoring or winner - it ends with a reveal, stepping through every chain from its original phrase to its final, usually-mangled result.
