How to use this list

In the game: tap the button above. Bahurupiya picks a word from this pack, shows it to every player except the imposter, and keeps score.

With paper slips: pick a word, for example Googly. Write it on every slip except one, where you write "Something from cricket". Everyone draws a slip, then take turns saying one word that hints at it. Vote on who had the odd slip.

For dumb charades or guessing games: the same list works. Century is a good one to act out.
