<p>Hefe: Added details of scoring</p> <hr /> <div>==Overview==<br /> <br /> ''Just One'' is a cooperative party game where you get other players to guess Mystery Words by writing secret clues on your easel. <br /> <br /> Choose carefully though, since any identical clues will be canceled!<br /> <br /> After 13 cards, calculate your score and try to set a new record each time you play.<br /> ==Gameplay==<br /> <br /> 1) A mystery word is presented.<br /> <br /> 2) Each player writes one '''single-word''' clue on their board.<br /> <br /> 3) One player reviews the clues. Any identical or invalid clues are removed.<br /> <br /> ===Identical clues===<br /> <br /> • Identical words<br /> Example: Mouse and Mouse are identical<br /> • Variants from the same word family<br /> Example: Prince and Princess are considered to be identical<br /> • Plurals, gender differentiations, and spelling mistakes don’t count as actual differences<br /> Example: Prince and Princes, Actor and Actress, Philosophy and Filosofie are considered identical<br /> <br /> ===Invalid clues===<br /> <br /> • The mystery word written differently<br /> Example: Shirt → Shurt<br /> • The mystery word translated in another language<br /> Example: Shrub → Buisson<br /> • An invented word<br /> Example: Cake → Swee’ting<br /> • Homophones (a word phonetically identical to the mystery word with a different meaning)<br /> Example: Weather → Whether<br /> <br /> Note: If all clues are identical or invalid and have been removed, the turn is over.<br /> Note: Names (proper nouns), numbers, acronyms, onomatopoeia, and special characters are all valid clues.<br /> Examples: 007 is allowed to help someone guess Bond, Riiiiing or SMS are allowed to help someone guess Telephone, and $ is allowed to help someone guess America.<br /> <br /> 4) The active player guesses the mystery word.<br /> <br /> ===Results===<br /> <br /> • Success: If the active player correctly guesses the Mystery Word, score 1 point.<br /> <br /> • Failure: If the active player makes a wrong guess, do not gain the point, AND discard the next card in the stack.<br /> <br /> • Skip: If the active player chooses not to answer, skip their turn and do not gain the point.<br /> <br /> ==End of Game==<br /> <br /> The game ends after 13 rounds. Guessing all 13 mystery words correctly is a perfect score.</div>
