What makes a good imposter word

  • Pick words everyone in the group knows. A word only one person recognizes makes that player look like the imposter.
  • Use concrete things you can describe in several ways, like objects, animals or places. Abstract ideas such as "honesty" are hard to clue.
  • Keep the words in one list at a similar difficulty, so no round is much easier or harder than the rest.
  • For similar word mode, keep each list to one theme, so the imposter gets a word close enough to blend in.
  • Make a custom list for your group with inside jokes, class vocabulary or a party theme. Aim for at least 20 words so the same ones do not come up too often.
