DIY alias game, step by step guide

Material:

• Paper white
• Cardboard
• Hourglass or ordinary with a second hand
• multicolored buttons
• Scissors

Progress:

The game is suitable for home gatherings, for while away the time while traveling. It can be presented for a small holiday to friends or family.

And now a little more about the rules and the course of the game. (I’ll tell you about the version of the game that we usually play, it differs slightly from the description of the manufacturer’s rules, but not much. Moreover, this kind of game implies that in each company the rules are somewhat transformed for people who constantly play this game)

At the very beginning, everyone is divided into teams (there can be any number of players in a team). Each team chooses a chip and puts it on the start. Word cards are in the center of the table. The team that will start the game agrees among themselves who will explain the words this time, the rest of the team members will guess. The player pulls out a card, the hourglass turns over, and begins to explain the words (and the order is determined by the explainer himself). For each word guessed by his team, the team chip moves one step forward on the playing field. We advise that the player from the other team move the chip at this moment, so as not to distract the pointer and guessers from the process.
But the team has only 1 minute. As soon as the last grain of sand falls, all the other players who until that moment could not guess are included in the game. But a minute has passed and everyone can start guessing. And which team guesses the word, that one moves forward on the playing field.
As soon as all the words from the card are guessed, the “round” ends. The turn to show and guess goes to the next team.

When explaining the words, it is important to remember that the answer must be exactly as written on the card. For example, if the word “swing-board” is explained, the players must guess exactly that, it is not enough to say only “swing”. We can immediately say that we guess two words. First explains the first, and then we move on to the second. (not forgetting to fix the already guessed first or second part with your team). As a result, the team calls the correct combination and you can move on to the next word.

Single-root words cannot be used. That is, if the word “swing” is on the card, you can’t say “this is what they swing on”. We can say that "it is always on the playgrounds and they fly high on them." Explaining the word "aircraft", one cannot say that this is a "flying vehicle", because. These words have the same root. For each such error-clause, the team's chip is returned one move back on the playing field.

However, you can use antonyms or synonyms. Moreover, you can say “the antonym of the word “big” (if the word is small on the card). If a difficult word comes across, then it is better to temporarily skip it and explain it when the time is up, so as not to spend all the time explaining it.

The first team to reach the finish line wins!

This game comes with a game board, a spinning arrow to playing field, hourglass, 6 tokens and 400 cards (290 with words, 96 celebrity cards, 8 emoticon cards, 6 position cards)

In this version, the players, as in the classic Alias, are divided into teams and must also explain the words from the card. The rules of explanation remain the same - you cannot speak the same root words.

What is special about this version? Let's try to figure it out.

The first difference that catches your eye is the "roulette" on the playing field, as well as the presence of special divisions on the field. If the team’s chip falls on such a division, then “new” cards will be needed here, which are not in the classic version.

The red circle is the "Celebrities" field. Draw a card from the celebrity deck. On it you will find 8 names of famous musicians, actors, movie and cartoon characters. Your task is to explain to your teammate, by any available means, about whom in question

Yellow field - emotions. Take the smiley card. Words must be explained according to the usual rules, but at the same time the player must portray the emotion that has fallen out. Examples of emotions: frightened, joyful, angry, embarrassed, hysterical, etc.

The blue field is a pose. Similar to "emotions": the player draws a card from the deck of positions and explains the words in the position that he came across. Examples: stand with your back to the team, do squats, pat yourself on the head, do a swallow, etc.

White field - tell a story. In this space, the player takes only one card with words and must explain to his team all eight words from this card in a minute, linking his explanations into one logical story.

If the team successfully completes the tasks on the "special fields", then it gets the opportunity to spin the "roulette" and get an additional number of points (from 1 to 3)

The game can be a great addition to the classic version.

The kit includes:
300 family cards
180 cards for adults
20 task cards
hourglass
8 chips
playing field
roulette

A distinctive feature of this version is that here everyone plays for himself. The game is focused on family game. There are “adult cards” and there are “children's” cards with simpler words. Also, there are task cards. And also fun penalty actions (for example, explain words while standing on one leg or sneezing)

Before starting to explain the words, the player spins the roulette wheel, which indicates to him a partner for the round. For each correctly guessed word, both partners move across the playing field.
This version of the game can be called one of the best, because it is really focused specifically on the family game. If you like to play Say Different with friends, then this version will allow you to play your favorite game with your family at home.

The game includes a playing field, 6 chips of different colors (ideally 6 teams, but if you want more, you can replace the chip with any small object), an hourglass and 300 cards with pictures and words.

Unlike the adult version of Alias, the children's version has one word and a picture on the cards, which allows even those who cannot read to play the game.

it team game, in which you need to explain to your teammates the words that are shown in the pictures.

Teams must have a minimum of two players, and there is no maximum number of teams or players per team.

Perfect Game for a children's company. If you are traveling with children and want to play on your own for some time, take Alias ​​junior with you - children will be happy to play it separately from adults.

The rules of the game are the same as in the classic version. We wrote more about the course of the game
As we already mentioned, there are no words on the cards in this game. Letters are written on the cards. Players must form words in three different ways. The number on the field under the command chip indicates how in this case the word should be composed.

Passwords (both players explain)
Open 5 cards with words and flip the hourglass. Both players must form a word consisting ONLY of the letters that have fallen out on the cards. An empty card can mean any letter.
When one player makes up a word, his task is to explain it using classical rules Alias.

Use all three
The player who makes the move reveals three cards and turns over the clock. His task is to come up with a word that includes all these three letters in any order. For example, with the letters OTP, you can guess the word PYTHON
Having come up with a word, the player begins to explain it according to the classical rules. When the word is guessed, the second player opens three more letters and thinks of a new word for explanation.
When the time runs out, the team can move their chip across the board by the number of words they guessed divided by two.

Chains of letters
The explaining player takes the deck in his hand. The clock is turned over and the player puts two cards with letters on the table, one under the other, in two rows.
These are the first letters of two chains, which the explainer must make as long as possible.
First, he explains a word that starts with one of the two letters. When the second player guesses the word, the explainer can take a card with a letter from the deck and place it next to one of the initial letters, thus continuing the chain. At the same time, he must think of a word that begins with these letters.
LI - sheet
LIT - literature

In the rules there is also a description of additional rules of the game.

Which of the games to choose (or maybe several) is up to you. But no matter which one you choose, it will bring a lot of pleasure to you and your children! On my own behalf, I’ll add that this type of game is my favorite, so we have collected several variations of this game at home and we play each one with great pleasure. And, if all the cards have already been studied and the game has become a little boring, then a great option to diversify it is to start playing in a foreign language.

whoever needs it, copy it, print it out))) 32 cards, 256 words... maybe I'll add more later))

There are many variations: both the Elias for the whole family board game, and fun game for any company "alias party" ("alias party"), and "alias for kids" ("alias junior") and many others.

Packaging, design and localization

Alies game was developed in the 90s in Finland. "Alias" in English means "otherwise called" (all variants of "Ellis", "Elios", "Ales", "Alles", "Aleas", "Alies" and even "Alliance" are also her). Over the past time, cards with words have conquered many countries of the world and “multiplied” into a bunch of different versions, and reviews about it filled the Internet pages.

The design of the Alice game boxes changes regularly, and even more so from add-on to add-on. The quality of the cards also “floats” slightly, depending on which alias the printing house printed today. You can recognize the original edition by the "Tactic" logo and the word "Alias" written in the corporate font. In any case, the board game Alias ​​and "Say Different", and "Party", and "For Children" will please the content.

The "alias party" and "alias party 2" sets have an additional field with a rotating arrow. "Elias the crazy version" will entertain with an incredible number of ways to explain, and "Alias ​​the brilliant version" will make you make up words on your own from the letters that have fallen out.

On the territory of Russia, the game Alice is released in Russian or in two languages ​​with Russian rules.

Alias ​​Game Rules

Basic Rules word game alias are simple and apply to all sets from "alias family" and "alias junior" to "alias party". Anyone who has played at least once will not forget them.

How to spell words correctly

Game progress

Participants are divided into several teams (up to six), each must have at least 2 people. The team takes a chip and puts it on the field, determining the order of the move by drawing lots, counting, tossing a coin, or otherwise. The entire deck of cards is shuffled and divided equally among the teams.

The team determines who will guess and who will guess. Usually the roles change during the game. The guesser picks up the whole deck, turns the clock over and begins to explain the words. He takes them not in a row and not at random - the number of the word must correspond to the number on which their team chip stands.

For example: the chip is on the field with the number "3", which means it explains the word number 3. As soon as the correct answer sounds, this card is put aside and the explanation for the third word is voiced on the next one, and so on as much as possible.

Important: the words must be guessed exactly in the form in which they are indicated. The singular instead of the plural is not counted, synonyms, just one-root.

While the sand is pouring in the hourglass, you need to have time to explain as many words as possible. For each correct answer, the team is awarded 1 point, and the chip takes a step forward.

As soon as the clock runs out of sand, the other team shouts “Stop!”. If the explanation is interrupted in the middle, then all teams can race to guess it and earn 1 extra point.

After the used cards are removed to the bottom of the pile, and the move is transferred to the next team.

For the game, private traders are divided into several teams.

Robbery

On the field there are circles marked with a figure of a thief. If the team passed by this, then on the next turn they act according to the following scheme:

• do not use an hourglass;
• make up words from only five cards;
• and most importantly, any team can give answers and get points for them.

There is no such item in the "alias for kids" - in order not to complicate the rules and not cause offense among the participants.

Scoring

Points are counted at the end of each turn. For each guessed word, 1 point is awarded, allowing you to take a step forward. For each unguessed or missed (if the player cannot explain the word, it can be skipped) - 1 penalty point. "Penalty" cards are put aside in a separate pile. It is easy to get a fine if you name the word itself or the same root when explaining. For the amount of penalties, the team moves back across the field.

Victory

The victory conditions are even simpler than the rules. All you have to do is get to the finish line first. Therefore, it is required:

• explain quickly and clearly;
• avoid reservations;
• don't skip cards.
  Who will be the fastest and smartest, he will win the game.

The fastest and smartest will win the game.

Purpose of the game

The far-reaching goal of "Alias, or Say Different" is the development of vocabulary and ingenuity. The list of words can be completely unexpected and open gaps in your knowledge.

If in editions for adults the main reason for sitting down to play is the desire to have fun and crazy time, then the children's counterpart, "elias junior" is even more developing than entertaining, with a fun playing field.

This version has girls against boys.

By and large, all games, except for "alias for kids", can be combined with the base game and with each other.

The game "Alias" - board game, which has existed for a long time and already has a number of variations. Alias translated from English as a "synonym", the Russian-language name - "Say Different". Alias ​​game is not only an opportunity to have fun, but also to practice your diction and public speaking skills.

We are used to that "Alias" board game and is issued in the form of cards on which words are depicted. Like many material things, cards and words end on them, and it is no longer interesting to play using the same words. In such a situation, it is convenient to join forces, and by adding words to one base, a large pantry of such words will soon form. And the game "Say Different" will not be scarce.

Alias ​​game. Basic principles. It is necessary to explain the hidden word to the team. In this case, parts of the guessed word and single-root words cannot be used. The game "Alias" also does not approve of the use of foreign words, which in translation mean hidden. Players of the opposite team monitor compliance with the rules. The team must guess the words exactly with the same prefixes, suffixes, endings, etc. If the team does not understand, say otherwise. "Alias" - board game, which can be attended by 4 to 15 people. In this amount, the game will not lose its dynamism.

Alias ​​game on the JollyGame project. Mechanics. Players are divided into two or three teams. Indicate the number of players in the team (if the teams are not equal, then the number of players in the largest team). The player from the team comes out and tries to explain as many words as possible in a minute. For each guess, he receives a certain number of points. If the word was not guessed, was omitted, or the rules were violated when explaining it, then points are removed from the team account. The teams alternate. During the game, each player will explain as many times as you specify in the game settings.

"Alias" - board game, one of those in which there are often problems with the countdown (an hourglass is very inconvenient, and always setting a timer for 60 seconds is not always convenient). The JollyGame project will also keep time and keep score. Words in the game "Say Different" will be issued randomly from different topics and varying complexity.

"Alias" is a board game in which the fact that the words are not repeated greatly influences the interest. You can add words to our project. To do this, use the form "+1 word". Thanks in advance for participating in the development of the project.

Alias ​​is a team game to explain words. On their turn, a player draws a card and attempts to explain one of the words written on it to a teammate without using that word or its derivatives. If he managed to guess the word before the turn time expired, the command token moves forward.

main problem similar games- repeatability of tasks - Alias ​​solves in a rather original way. Each of the 400 cards contains eight numbered words and phrases of varying complexity. Also, from one to eight, the cells on the field are numbered. Taking a card, the player chooses a word on it with the same number as the current position of his chip.

Alias ​​has been translated into 15 languages ​​of the world, and regional versions often differ. For example, each card might have six words instead of eight, or there might be special spaces on the board that allow teams to respond to the opponent's explanations. The main drawback of the Russian version of Alias ​​is the sloppy translation (“hound car”, “snow shovel”) and numerous typos.

Let's start with perhapsclassic version



The game includes a playing field, an hourglass, 6 chips, 400 word cards.

The translation of the name speaks for itself - say otherwise. The task is extremely simple - you need to explain the words from the cards without naming them.
(Collapse)

And now a little more about the rules and the course of the game. (I’ll tell you about the version of the game that we usually play, it differs slightly from the description of the manufacturer’s rules, but not much. Moreover, this kind of game implies that in each company the rules are somewhat transformed for people who constantly play this game)

At the very beginning, everyone is divided into teams (there can be any number of players in a team). Each team chooses a chip and puts it on the start. Word cards are in the center of the table. The team that will start the game agrees among themselves who will explain the words this time, the rest of the team members will guess. The player pulls out a card, the hourglass turns over, and begins to explain the words (and the order is determined by the explainer himself). For each word guessed by his team, the team chip moves one step forward on the playing field. We advise that the player from the other team move the chip at this moment, so as not to distract the pointer and guessers from the process.
But the team has only 1 minute. As soon as the last grain of sand falls, all the other players who until that moment could not guess are included in the game. But a minute has passed and everyone can start guessing. And which team guesses the word, that one moves forward on the playing field.
As soon as all the words from the card are guessed, the “round” ends. The turn to show and guess goes to the next team.

When explaining the words, it is important to remember that the answer must be exactly as written on the card. For example, if the word “swing-board” is explained, the players must guess exactly that, it is not enough to say only “swing”. We can immediately say that we guess two words. First explains the first, and then we move on to the second. (not forgetting to fix the already guessed first or second part with your team). As a result, the team calls the correct combination and you can move on to the next word.

Single-root words cannot be used. That is, if the word “swing” is on the card, you can’t say “this is what they swing on”. We can say that "it is always on the playgrounds and they fly high on them." Explaining the word "aircraft", one cannot say that this is a "flying vehicle", because. These words have the same root. For each such error-clause, the team's chip is returned one move back on the playing field.

However, you can use antonyms or synonyms. Moreover, you can say “the antonym of the word “big” (if the word is small on the card). If a difficult word comes across, then it is better to temporarily skip it and explain it when the time is up, so as not to spend all the time explaining it.

The first team to reach the finish line wins!

This game comes with a game board, spinning game board arrow, hourglass, 6 tokens and 400 cards (290 with words, 96 celebrity cards, 8 emoticon cards, 6 position cards)

In this version, the players, as in the classic Alias, are divided into teams and must also explain the words from the card. The rules of explanation remain the same - you cannot speak the same root words.

What is special about this version? Let's try to figure it out.

The first difference that catches your eye is the "roulette" on the playing field, as well as the presence of special divisions on the field. If the team’s chip falls on such a division, then “new” cards will be needed here, which are not in the classic version.

The red circle is the "Celebrities" field. Draw a card from the celebrity deck. On it you will find 8 names of famous musicians, actors, movie and cartoon characters. Your task is to explain to your teammate who it is about by any available means.

Yellow field - emotions. Take the smiley card. Words must be explained according to the usual rules, but at the same time the player must portray the emotion that has fallen out. Examples of emotions: frightened, joyful, angry, embarrassed, hysterical, etc.

The blue field is a pose. Similar to "emotions": the player draws a card from the deck of positions and explains the words in the position that he came across. Examples: stand with your back to the team, do squats, pat yourself on the head, do a swallow, etc.

White field - tell a story. In this space, the player takes only one card with words and must explain to his team all eight words from this card in a minute, linking his explanations into one logical story.

If the team successfully completes the tasks on the "special fields", then it gets the opportunity to spin the "roulette" and get an additional number of points (from 1 to 3)

The game can be a great addition to the classic version.

Alias ​​Party also exists Travel option

The kit includes:
. 300 family cards
. 180 cards for adults
. 20 task cards
. hourglass
. 8 chips
. playing field
. roulette

A distinctive feature of this version is that here everyone plays for himself. The game is focused specifically on the family game. There are “adult cards” and there are “children's” cards with simpler words. Also, there are task cards. And also fun penalty actions (for example, explain words while standing on one leg or sneezing)

Before starting to explain the words, the player spins the roulette wheel, which indicates to him a partner for the round. For each correctly guessed word, both partners move across the playing field.
This version of the game can be called one of the best, because it is really focused specifically on the family game. If you like to play Say Different with friends, then this version will allow you to play your favorite game with your family at home.

The game includes a playing field, 6 chips of different colors (ideally 6 teams, but if you want more, you can replace the chip with any small object), an hourglass and 300 cards with pictures and words.

Unlike the adult version of Alias, the children's version has one word and a picture on the cards, which allows even those who cannot read to play the game.

This is a team game in which you need to explain to your teammates the words that are shown in the pictures.

Teams must have a minimum of two players, and there is no maximum number of teams or players per team.

Seriously! In this game, you will not be able to relax as much as all the previous ones. Among the cards, there is not one with words! Intrigued? Then let's try to understand the rules of this game.

Includes double-sided game board, hourglass, 6 tokens and 200 cards (198 letter cards and joker cards)

As we already mentioned, there are no words on the cards in this game. Letters are written on the cards. Players must form words in three different ways. The number on the field under the command chip indicates how in this case the word should be composed.

Passwords (both players explain)
Open 5 cards with words and flip the hourglass. Both players must form a word consisting ONLY of the letters that have fallen out on the cards. An empty card can mean any letter.
When one player makes up a word, his task is to explain it according to the classic rules of Alias.

Use all three
The player who makes the move reveals three cards and turns over the clock. His task is to come up with a word that includes all these three letters in any order. For example, with the letters OTP, you can guess the word PYTHON
Having come up with a word, the player begins to explain it according to the classical rules. When the word is guessed, the second player opens three more letters and thinks of a new word for explanation.
When the time runs out, the team can move their chip across the board by the number of words they guessed divided by two.

Chains of letters
The explaining player takes the deck in his hand. The clock is turned over and the player puts two cards with letters on the table, one under the other, in two rows.
These are the first letters of two chains, which the explainer must make as long as possible.
First, he explains a word that starts with one of the two letters. When the second player guesses the word, the explainer can take a card with a letter from the deck and place it next to one of the initial letters, thus continuing the chain. At the same time, he must think of a word that begins with these letters.
LI - sheet
LIT - literature

In the rules there is also a description of additional rules of the game.

Which of the games to choose (or maybe several) - it's up to you. But whatever you choose, it will bring a lot of pleasure to you and your children! On my own behalf, I’ll add that this type of game is my favorite, so we have collected several variations of this game at home and we play each one with great pleasure. And, if all the cards have already been studied and the game has become a little annoying, then a great option to diversify it is to start playing in a foreign language.
