About this board game
Экивоки is a word-guessing race for 2–16 players that takes about 60 minutes. Guide your figure from the doors of the house to the attic faster than your opponents by rolling a cube and completing the task it determines.
Each challenge asks players to explain or guess words in a particular way. Most tasks must be completed within one minute, keeping turns quick and encouraging everyone to think and respond under pressure.
The cube can lead to a variety of creative communication challenges, including:
- Explaining a word using other words
- Spelling a word in reverse
- Drawing
- Using gestures
- Answering yes-or-no questions
After the task is completed, the figure advances forward. The objective is straightforward: reach the attic before the other players or teams. Success depends on how effectively a word can be communicated through the method required by the cube.
Экивоки can be played in a large company, in small teams, or by two friends. Its flexible format supports different group sizes while keeping the central challenge the same: complete the word-based task and move closer to the finish.
