Description

[Edit] [History]

The PASSWORD game is based on the old TV Game Show from the 60's and 70's. There were many editions printed - starting in 1962. Each edition featured a different set of words (although later anniversary editions used words from previous sets). The object is for one teammate to get the other teammate to say the password given a series of clues. Each time a clue is given, the other player can guess the password. If they get it right the team scores. If they get it wrong, the other team gets to try a clue word. It goes back and forth: the score you get is higher if you guess it on the first clue, reduced by one point for each incorrect guess. As a clue-giver you can only say one word (non hyphenated) so you need to find the "definitive" clue.
