Cryptic Common

A parlour game where players describe four words, places, names, phrases, or expressions using the rules of "Articulate!" - you must get other players to guess what you're describing without using any of the words in the answer.

The twist? The four answers share both a common and a cryptic theme.

For example: Orange, Apple, Raspberry, Blackberry - the common theme is Fruits and the cryptic theme is Technology Companies .

How to Play

  1. One player acts as the describer
  2. They reveal answers one at a time, describing each without using the words in the answer
  3. Other players try to guess the common and cryptic themes
  4. Have fun!
