User:Knowledgeman800/25 Words or Less (game show)

25 Words or Less is a new game show that's based on the popular board game of the same name, in which players have 25 words or less to convey clues to their partners.

The show premiered on nine Fox-owned stations for a three-week test run. It was successful for the show to return in Fall 2019.

Gameplay

Two teams of two celebrities and one contestant compete. Two teammates are shown a set of five words, and must bid back and forth as to how few clues out of a given number they can use to get their teammates to guess those five words. Upon being challenged to do so, if the team mate can successfully convey the five words in the allotted clues and within 45 seconds, they earn points. If not, the opponents do. Passing is allowed and it won't count against the clue giver, and the clue giver can't use their hands. Each teammate has a turn per round. The first round is worth 250 points and the second is worth 500.

For Round 3, the celebrities are sent backstage, and the contestants choose their own set of words for their teammates, five sets of three. Easy words are worth 250, medium words are 500, and difficult words are 1,000. Each teammate has 20 clues to use and if a team can guess all the words chosen, they earn an additional 1,000. Team with the highest score wins. If there is a tie, after Round 3, then one final word is played, the first to buzz win the game. However, if the player buzzed in with a incorrect response, the other player wins by default.

Money Round

One member of the winning team has 60 seconds and all 25 clues to get their partners to say 10 words. If they can, the contestant wins $10,000. If not, they win a trip.
