You were randomly assigned to groups of four. Together in your group you play in a total of 12 turns.

Goal: One of the players – the guesser – has to guess a mystery word based on clues given by the other players.

A clue consists only of a single word.

If two or more players write the same word, all identical words will be canceled before the guesser gets to see them.

{{ if player.participant.treatment != 1}} Your payoff consists of a participation fee of 3.50€ and a bonus of up to 8€ depending on your performance. {{ else }} You get 10€ if you participate in all 12 turns. {{ endif }}

{{ if player.participant.treatment == 3}} You can get the bonus if your group reaches the best score of all groups in this session. {{ else }} {{ endif }}

{{ if player.participant.treatment == 2}} You can get the bonus if your group develops the most ideas for clues in this session. {{ else }} {{ endif }}

{{ if player.participant.treatment == 4}} You can get the bonus if your group gives the most exclusive and unique clues in this session. {{ else }} {{ endif }}

Each turn is divided in four phases:

  1. All players except the guesser are told which mystery word they have to provide a clue for.
  2. Without communicating with each other and without showing it to anyone, each cluegiver types one clue in.
  3. Once all player have written their clues, the identical or invalid clues are canceled. The guesser is shown all remaining clues and has only one guess to identify the mystery word.
  4. The group is told whether the guesser guessed the mystery word correctly or not. The next turn begins with another player becoming the guesser.
