About this board game

HINT is a party game for 4–10 players that takes about 60 minutes to play. In each round, your teammates try to guess what you are communicating while you use a range of creative ways to give clues.

Depending on the prompt, you may need to mime, draw, hum, or talk your way toward the answer. The game challenges you to be both quick and inventive as your team works to understand what you are trying to tell them.

HINT covers a broad selection of topics, making each challenge feel different. Prompts can include familiar themes such as:

  • European Capitals
  • Movie Villains
  • Fictional Vehicles
  • Pizza Toppings

There is one important catch: every challenge includes a forbidden word that you may not use. You must guide your teammates toward the right ideas without accidentally saying the word that is off limits, adding an extra layer of pressure to every clue.

Released in 2014, HINT is designed for groups that enjoy lively communication, spontaneous performances, and guessing games. Its mix of speaking, drawing, humming, and mime gives everyone a chance to contribute in a different way.

Whether the category involves places, fictional characters, vehicles, or food, HINT turns familiar subjects into entertaining team challenges. Stay creative, stay quick, and make sure your teammates get the hint.
