Creature Features is a game that Booker and Dahlya love to play. It's a great game for rainy days or while traveling in the car or school bus.
It's fun to play during lunch and recess at school. Sometimes Booker's whole class plays Creature Features when the teacher wants them to learn more about an animal species.
Directions:
Get a head start! Research the features and facts about a unique creature—like a pademelon or tullibee—to increase your chances of stumping your opponents.
1. Think of a REAL animal, insect, or other real creature that inhabits either air, land, sea, or freshwater. DON'T SAY ITS NAME!
2. Describe the creature's features. "Features" are the different parts and colors that describe how something looks.
3. You can give up to 10 feature clues first. If your opponent needs more clues, you can give up to 10 habit clues.
4. If your opponent hasn't guessed the answer after 20 clues, you are the winner and can then tell the creature's name.
For example: brown bear. If your opponent guesses the correct answer during or after the 20 clues, he/she is the winner.
5. Take turns describing and guessing.
