Description

Trapwords is a team-based word game where you and your teammates try to guess a secret word. One player from each team gives clues, but here's the catch: the opposing team has secretly written down a list of "trapwords" that can't be used in the clues. If a clue-giver utters one of these forbidden words, the round ends immediately!

The game is played on a dungeon-themed board. Successfully guessing the word allows your team to advance through the dungeon, facing increasingly difficult challenges and longer trapword lists. It's a fun blend of vocabulary, strategy, and a little bit of mind-reading as you try to anticipate your opponents' trapword choices.
