OVERVIEW OF ONE WORD STORY

one word gameplay

One Word Story will bring out the storyteller within you, but with a twist. While you do have to tell a story, this is a team game where you tell a story without knowing what the other teammates are thinking. Seems confusing? Wait till you play it! You and your teammates are sure to be rolling around in laughter and confusion by the end of the story! This is filled with word gameplay with lots of fun turning and twisting for any word master.

GAMEPLAY

One Word Story is a team game, and the more people playing, the better, so One Word Story can also be considered a group activity, which you can play in person, or play online. Have the group sit around in a circle and designate a random player to go first.

The first player says one word to begin the words story. Then, the second player says another word to continue, and so on. Players can only say one word at a time to continue the story. Expect groans and laughter as the semi coherent story takes twists and turns that no one expects! There is no correct word, but try to give the next player something to work with.

For example: 

Player 1: Once

Player 2: I

Player 3: Went

Player 1: Skiing

Player 2: And

Player 3: Shopping

Player 1: For

Player 2: Socks

END OF GAME

The game ends when the story is over or when players have had enough of the current story and want to move on to a new one. For the super word gamer, start another round right away!
