In Werewords, the hidden identity word game, players attempt to guess a secret word by asking "yes" or "no" questions. However, one of the players is secretly a werewolf who's not only working against you, but also knows the word. Figure out the magic word before time runs out - or identify the werewolf in your midst - and you win! A free iOS/Android app provides thousands of words in hundreds of categories at various difficulty levels, so everyone can play. Players: 4 - 10 Time: 10 minutes Age: 8+ Dustin recommends Werewords or Werewords Deluxe Edition (for a more robust experience) for reviewing vocabulary for English Language classrooms! It is one of his favorites because it is simple to teach, quick, and uses a communicative-based approach to teaching, while also reviewing vocabulary. It is great for reviewing vocabulary in other content areas too!
