Word chain
A no-prep word game: each new word starts with the last letter of the one before.
- Difficulty
- ◆ easy
How to do it
- One player says a word. The next player says a word that begins with the last letter of the previous one.
- If you like, agree on a theme, such as names.
- The game ends when a player can't think of a follow-up word.
Variations
- Build a new word from the second half of a compound word (works in German).
- Keep the chain within a theme, e.g. “food”.
