What this is
Get their teammates to guess real & fictional people while clues become more limited. Each player's cards are shuffled to form a deck, and this deck of famous names is used for each of the game's three rounds. Before the game begins, each player looks at several cards featuring famous historical or fictional characters and chooses some of them.
