WORD WAR 2®
How It Plays
Two words. Five seconds. Majority rules — that's it!
Answers can be a two-word phrase or a compound word — as long as they fit the letters.
Flip a Card
Say a common two-word noun or phrase.
Beat the Bomb
Five seconds — or take the card.
Consensus
Answers have to 'pass muster' with the other players. A thumbs up or down vote decides your fate. Get voted down and you take the card.
The D-Day Scenario
These draw cards flip the script. Ten seconds — lose the round and take two cards.
Fewest Cards Wins
You want to avoid receiving cards — player with the fewest cards at the end of the deck wins the war!
See It In Action
People learn this game in five seconds flat — by watching it played.
Meet the Maker
Created by artist and educator Kathy L. Jackson at Kalypso Arts in Philadelphia, Word War 2 rewards quick thinking and a little nerve — two-word answers that are funny, fictional, foreign, flubbed, or just plain familiar.
