Just One is a cooperative word association game. The active player tries to guess the mystery word with the help of unique one-word clues given by the other players. Any duplicated clues will be removed.

Note: Numbers, acronyms, onomatopoeia, and special characters are all considered to be words.

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.

Gameplay

1: A mystery word is presented.

2: Each player writes one single-word clue on their board.

3: One player reviews the clues. Any identical or invalid clues are removed.

Identical clues:

• Two identical words

 Example: Mouse and Mouse are identical

• Variants from the same word family

 Example: Prince and Princess are considered to be identical

• Variants of the same word: plurals, gender differentiations, and spelling mistakes don’t count as actual differences

 Example: Prince and Princes, Actor and Actress, Philosophy and Filosofie are identical

Invalid clues:

• The mystery word written differently

 Example: Shirt → Shurt

• The mystery word written in a foreign language

 Example: Shrub → Buisson

• A word from the same family as the mystery word

 Example: Prince → Princess

• An invented word

 Example: Cake → Swee’ting

• A word phonetically identical to the mystery word with a different meaning

 Example: Weather → Whether

Note: If all clues are identical or invalid and have been removed, the turn is over.

4: The active player guesses the mystery word.

End of Game

The game ends after 13 rounds. Guessing all 13 mystery words correctly is a perfect score.
