2. Everyone takes turns to play starting with the first person joined

The game begins with the first player giving a clue to help their team guess a secret word, but they must do so without using any of the "forbidden" words listed on the card. Once their team correctly guesses the word or time runs out, the next player takes their turn as the clue giver, and so on. This continues until all players have had a chance to give clues, and the team with the most correct guesses at the end wins the game.
