Dumb charades, with a dramatic twist. Dramebaazi pairs South Asian prompts with a die that changes who acts, who guesses and what happens next! Player goes up, roll the die, pick your partner, guesser or prop—all before you see the card. Flip the card and act it out for your team to guess. You’ve got 60 seconds—time to shine!
Players: 6+ players in two teams of at least three, with no fixed maximum.
What’s in the box: 100 cards with 400 prompts and one six-sided Dramebaazi die. Bring a phone or other 60-second timer; a timer is not included.
How to play
Roll the die first, then choose any required partner, guesser or prop before seeing the card. Flip the card and start 60 seconds immediately, including time to read and choose one of its four prompts. A correct guess earns 1 point and ends the turn; time running out scores 0, with no steal. Saying the answer costs 1 point and ends the turn. Alternate teams, let everyone roll at least once and give both teams equal turns. Most points wins.
Six ways to bring the drama
-
Hum Saath Saath Hai: one teammate guesses while the rest act.
-
Jodi #1: two teammates act together.
-
Hera Pheri: choose whether you or another teammate will act before seeing the card.
-
Kala Chashma: read the prompt, then act with your eyes closed; use ordinary acting if that is unsafe.
-
Lootera: choose one prop before seeing the card and make it work.
-
Bol Bachchan: act and talk without explaining the answer or saying any printed words from the card’s four prompts. No singing.
Ordinary turns are silent: no talking, singing, humming, mouthing or spelling. For a simpler get-together, use the separate All Play charades mode without the die.
