Just One is a collaborative associative game.

The active player tries to guess the Mystery word with the help of the remaining clues.

All players except the active player give clues. However, "If a clue is applied, it will be deleted."

That clue must be composed of a single word.

Note: a digit, a number, an acronym, an onomatopoeia, or a special character are all considered to be words.

1: The Mystery word is decided.

2: Each player writes one clue on their board. That clue must be composed of a single word.


Invalid clues:

• The Mystery word but 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, but the meaning of which is different.

 Example: Weather → Whether.


3: One player compares clues. All identical or invalid clues are cancelled.


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.

Note: If all clues have been cancelled, place the Mystery word’s card back in the box and move directly to the End of turn phase.

4: The answerer guess the Mystery word.


Success

If the active player correctly guesses the Mystery word: place this card face up next to the deck.


Failure

If the active player makes a wrong guess : return this card AND the top card of the deck to the game box.


Skip

If the active player chooses not to answer and skips their turn : return this card to the game box.


5: End turn

The player to the left of the active player becomes the new active player. A new turn begins.
