4 Pics 1 Word is a card game based on the app of the same name, and the gameplay is similar between the two.
In the card game, players are shown four images at once, along with a selection of letters that could belong to a word that relates to all of the images. Can you pick out the right letters to determine what the proper word is? In the co-operative mode, players compete against time to solve as many puzzles as possible before the clock runs out.
In Haiclue, players combine random word tiles to make clues.
Each round, every player uses 15 random word tiles to make a clue for one of the four words in the center of the table. When everyone has finished, the group reads the clues out loud, and everyone guesses which of the four words belongs to each player. If a player guesses correctly, they score a point for themselves and a point for the author of the clue.
3-12 players (competitive)
2 players (co-op)
30 minute playtime.

The action in the party game Stringamajig is part drawing and part charades with a string. Each player is given 60 seconds to draw a shape with a loop of string, move it around, and interact with it, trying to help other players guess that word, then as many other words as possible in the time allotted.
On a player's turn, they draw the top card of the deck, with each card showing four numbered objects or phrases; the top card of the deck will show 1-4 numbers, and those numbers indicate which objects the drawer can choose to depict with the string.
When the drawer is ready, they flip the sand timer, grab the string, and start "drawing" — but they can interact with that drawing to help others guess the object, such as strumming a guitar, moving the tentacles on an octopus, or twirling the rotors on a helicopter. The drawer can't make any noise, and part of the string has to remain touching the table while they animate their drawing. Otherwise, the drawer can get crazy with it.
The other players call out their ideas, and when a player guesses the word correctly, they receive the card, then the drawer quickly moves on to their next drawing. When time is up, the drawer scores 1 point for each word that was guessed correctly, and each player scores 1 point for each correct guess they made.
The game contains three types of challenge words that are harder to draw, but worth 2 points if guessed:
2-Player: Make the drawing in the air with another player.
Don't Look: Draw with your eyes closed.
Forbidden Word: Guessing a certain word costs a card.
After everyone has had two turns as the drawer (or one turn in a game with seven or more players), the game ends, and the player with the most points wins.
It's a threequel of the award-winning deduction party game from the future — well, and from the past, too!
Get ready for an outstanding time, traveling across the brightest eras and countries! Expose a spy in a neanderthal cave or in a lunar base, hide out in a WWI Airship or in Leonardo's studio, and do your best not to spill all the secrets of the Japanese ninja or of a Spanish entity you surely didn't expect here!
Spyfall: Time Travel is a standalone threequel for Spyfall — an easy-to-learn party game that features bluffing, suspicion, probing questions, and clever answers. At the start of each round, players receive a secret card informing them of the group's location, except for one player who receives the spy card instead. The spy doesn't know where they are, but if they can figure out the location before their cover is blown, they win the round!
This game is fully compatible with other games of Spyfall.

For example, can you get your friends to guess "milk a cow" while acting like a zombie -- or "fried chicken" while drawing with your eyes closed -- in just 60 seconds? Be the first player to collect 7 cards to win!
