    Welcome to REDACTIONARY!

    All players play as ENCODERS, and are assigned a secret word. You'll write a description of your word to help a DECODER guess what it is.

    example:
    [ You're an Encoder! Your word is CAT ]

    But don't be too obvious, because on your turn, all other players (besides the Decoder) will be SABOTEURS, who will be submitting a list of words that they'll predict you used in your description. All words correctly predicted will be redacted from your description when it's revealed, making it harder for the Encoder to guess.

    So instead of:
    ❌ " This is a furry animal that meows and purrs. "

    Try something like:
    ✅ " These domesticated creatures are sometimes jerks who knock cups off your desk. "

    Waiting for the host to start the game...

    ROUND


    It's time for Encoders to write a new description of a new word!

    Waiting for the host to continue the game...
    First, as an ENCODER, write a description of your word below to help your DECODER (which you'll be assigned later) guess what it is.
    You submitted your clue!
    You'll be playing each turn of the game as a SABOTEUR.
    Describe this word:
    All Encoders are composing their messages...
     

    Type as much as you like in the box below to help your assigned Decoder (TBD) guess your word!
    - Avoid using obvious language, which the Saboteurs would have a good chance to redact.
    - Don't use any part of the answer word; don't give clues for how your word is spelled, or what it sounds like/rhymes with.
    - Any words not in our dictionary will automatically be redacted.

    TIME'S UP!

    Now it's time to go through all of the Encoders' messages one by one! A Decoder will be assigned at random for each, who will try guess the word to disarm the Bomb.

    On each turn, everyone else is a Saboteur, and gets seconds to submit up to words they predict the Encoder used in their message. Correctly predicted words will be redacted from the message when it's revealed, making it harder for the Decoder to guess the word!

    Saboteurs get 1 point for every word they redact from each message; 2 points if they were the only one who typed that word.

    The Encoder and Decoder each get 4 points if the word is guessed correctly.

    Waiting for the host to continue the game...
    Time's up!
    If you didn't click Submit, whatever you had typed was auto-submitted.

    Now it's time to go through everyone's words, one at a time!
