Password Game Word Generator

Players split into pairs or teams. One player sees the secret word and gives a one-word clue; their teammate guesses. If the guess is wrong, the other team gets a clue. The fewer clues it takes, the more points the team scores. The original TV and board game runs on the same idea.

A single common word with a few strong associations, such as BEACH (sand, waves, vacation) or SHADOW (dark, sun, follow). Very rare words stall the game, and words with one obvious clue end it too fast, so a mix works best.

Most groups ban clues that use the secret word or any part of it, rhymes, spelling it out, gestures and clues of more than one word. The clue ideas on this page follow those rules.

No. This page makes words for the party game Password. The browser puzzle called The Password Game, where you type a password that keeps meeting new rules, is a different game, and this tool does not solve its rules.

It writes a word list, not a timer, scoreboard or printable cards; copy the list into a document to print it. It does not make secure passwords for accounts. Read the list before you play and drop any word that does not suit your group.
