In Werewords, the hidden identity word game, players attempt to guess a secret word by asking "yes" or "no" questions. However, one of the players is secretly a werewolf who's not only working against you, but also knows the word. Figure out the magic word before time runs out - or identify the werewolf in your midst - and you win!
A free iOS/Android app provides thousands of words in hundreds of categories at various difficulty levels, so everyone can play.
Players: 4 - 10
Time: 10 minutes

Dustin recommends Werewords or Werewords Deluxe Edition (for a more robust experience) for reviewing vocabulary for English Language classrooms! It is one of his favorites because it is simple to teach, quick, and uses a communicative-based approach to teaching, while also reviewing vocabulary. It is great for reviewing vocabulary in other content areas too! |
