How to play Heads Up
Phone to your forehead
Pick a deck and hold the phone in landscape on your forehead, screen facing your friends.
Friends give clues
They describe, act or hum the word on screen. You can't see it, so listen fast and shout your guesses.
Tilt to score or skip
Tilt the phone down when you guess right and up to skip. When the timer ends, pass the phone to the next player.
