Write down only 1 answer for each category. Roll the letter C? Quickly come up with a musical group, a vegetable, and reasons to have a party. The Scattergories game includes a 3-minute sand timer so players have to be creative and clever within that span of time. Players try to make their answers unique and think of things that will be different from everyone else's so that they will earn more points.

With more than 190 categories and 20 letters on the die, there are more than 3,500 category combinations! So, the Scattergories game is exciting to play over and over again. One thing that makes the Scattergories game different from other games is the 20-sided die, which provides endless fun for each round.

The player with the highest score at the end of each round is the winner! When time is up, players compare answers and each unique answer earns a point. For example, if the die turns up the letter S, players start the timer and as quickly as possible, write down the answers to things listed on the card such as "things you plug in", "items in the vending machine," or "song titles" - each beginning with the letter S. The more creative the answers, the more points scored! To play the Scattergories game, pick a list from the category cards and roll the 20-sided letter die to determine which letter each answer will begin with. Score points for writing down answers that no one else did. Players roll the letter die, flip the sand timer, and race against the clock to come up with answers to each category on the category list. The Scattergories game is the fast-thinking game of words and categories.
