One player gets a secret word and one letter they are not allowed to use. Their job is to describe the word in chat, one word at a time, never touching the banned letter. Everyone else races to guess it. Say the word is BANANA and the banned letter is E. "Yellow" is rejected before anyone else sees it. So is "sweet." You sit there staring at a banana, knowing exactly what it is, unable to say the obvious thing. "Curvy." "Fruit." "Monkey" — no, that has an E as well. That's the whole game, and it's harder than it sounds. The answer and any part of it are off limits too, so no sneaking QUICKSAND across as "quick" and then "sand." Free, no signup, runs in the browser on phone or desktop. Two to twelve players. Quick Play drops you straight into a public room, or create a private one and send friends the link. Turns are 60 seconds and a full match takes about ten minutes.
