How to play List It:

In the game of List It, players try to come up with as many answers as possible during timed rounds. Each round has a chosen list of categories and a pre-selected letter; players try to fulfill each category with an example that starts with that letter. After each round, players share their answer aloud and points are awarded. The player with the most points at the end of the total rounds played is the winner.

To prepare to play the game, every player needs something to write with and one answer card for each round of the game you intend to play. When players are ready, select the game time for each round and hit the Play button in the Menu. When the game begins, players try to fill in as many categories as they can using the given letter. For example, if the letter is M and the category is “things we love,” an appropriate answer would be “mother,” because it starts with the letter M and is fulfills the category. Players keep filling in categories until the timer stops.

Once the timer stops, players must put their pens or pencils down and take turns sharing their answer for each category aloud. If two or more players have the same answer for the same category, it must be crossed of their list, and neither player gets points awarded for that answer. If no other player has the answer, and it goes unchallenged, a point is awarded for that answer. If a player has an answer where both words start with the chosen letter, like Ronald Reagan, for example, they receive two points for that answer.

Any player may challenge an answer they deem to be unacceptable. The challenged player has an opportunity to defend their choice. The group then votes to determine if the answer may be awarded a point. At the end of each round, players total up their points and write that number on their scorecard. Players use a new scorecard for each round, and after all rounds have been played, players total up their points from all rounds. The player with the most points wins.

Here are some guidelines to determine if answers are acceptable or not:

• The first word of your answer must match the chosen letter
• Articles like “a,” “the,” or “an” cannot be used as the chosen letter; for example, the answer “The Shining” would be an acceptable answer for the letter S but not for the letter T.
• Answers cannot be repeated on the same player’s list. For example, Apple cannot be an answer for both “Types of Fruit” and “Things at a Picnic.”
• The plural version of a word acts the same as a singular version of the word, so you cannot answer “Desk” for one category and “Desks” for another.
• The answer “Red Apple” is not an acceptable answer for the letter R.
• Full names can be used with either the first or last name; for example, “Elton John” works for the letter E, and written as John, Elton, works for the letter J.
