The first round player A from team 1 (you decide who goes first) will get 2 minutes to ask questions in English of course to find out who/what they are. He/she takes the top card of the deck and puts the card against their forehead. Player B also from team 1 can only answer with yes or no, the other team, team 2, makes sure the rules are not broken.

Who/what am I? (Halloween edition) (3/3)

When you guess what is on your card you are allowed to keep the card and to draw a new card and guess again. You are allowed to skip once during your turn.

After two minutes the round is over. Now it is the turn of player A from team 2. He or she also gets two minutes to guess.

We will play four rounds so everyone has to guess once.
