Monikers
Monikers
Monikers is the uproarious, fast-paced party game that turns charades into a race of wits and laughter. With clever name-guessing, shifting clue styles, and audience-wide hilarity, this game is perfect for unforgettable game nights.
Play hard. Guess harder. Craft your clues, pass the card, and let the chaos begin—Monikers delivers buzzy, boundary-breaking fun where every round gets progressively sillier.
How the Game Works
Monikers is played in three escalating rounds: Round 1 allows any clue except the name itself; Round 2 restricts you to just one word; Round 3 forces charades only. Players select names, create a shared deck, and race to guess as many as they can per turn.
Teams rotate clue-givers and use time wisely—skip cards, re-shuffle, and score based on correct guesses. Fast-flowing rounds build shared jokes and meta-language that make each replay uniquely hilarious and memorable.
