The actor pulls a charade from the bucket and has a set amount of time to try to act it out and have his/her team guess the correct answer. You’ll need some sort of timer to keep track of time. If the player’s team guesses correctly, they win a point. If they don’t guess correctly before time runs out, the other team gets one guess for the right answer. If the other team guesses correctly, they get one point.
The other team then gets their turn to choose and actor and try to guess a charade like in the steps above.
