✋ how it actually works

Explain It. Don't Say It.

One player explains the word on top of the card. The five words below it are banned, in any language. Your team gets 60 seconds to guess as many as they can. Sounds easy? Try explaining "Hyderabad" without saying Nizam, Telangana, Capital, Biryani or Charminar. Good luck, miyan.

    Plot twist: forbidden words are banned in any language. Say "Kyu" for "Why" and your team loses a point.

    What Playtesters Said

    A few reactions from our first playtest batch — early samples shared before public launch.

    "We played this at Iftar and genuinely forgot to eat for an hour. My chacha got competitive over a card about Irani chai."

    "Sent a few sample cards to my cousins in the US on our family group chat. They immediately asked where to order from."

    ❓ before you order

    Questions, Answered

    How many people can play?+

    Anywhere from 4 to 12 players, split into teams. Bigger groups just mean louder rounds.

    Do you ship outside India?+

    Not at launch. We're opening a waitlist for the US, UK and UAE first — add your city in the order box and you'll be first to know when shipping opens.

    What's actually inside the box?+

    300 Hyderabadi words on double-sided cards across four colour-coded levels, a 60-second timer card and an instruction manual. No batteries, no app.

    What's the recommended age?+

    12 and up. Younger kids can play in a team with an adult explaining.

    When will my pre-order arrive?+

    We confirm your dispatch date on WhatsApp when you order. Once shipped, Hyderabad deliveries take 2–4 business days; the rest of India a little longer.

    How do I pay?+

    Send your order on WhatsApp and we reply with a UPI payment link. Your order is confirmed once payment lands.

    I'm not from Hyderabad. Can I still play?+

    Yes. The Green level is easy for anyone who has had biryani, and the Pro level is for those who grew up here. Mixed groups are the funniest.

    What if my deck arrives damaged?+

    Message us a photo within 7 days of delivery and we'll replace it.
