Explain the word without saying it

A party word game. Everyone plays from their own phone — around one table or over video.

The game is in beta — what that means

Saylias is in beta. People already play it, and the games are real. But it is being written as it goes: updates land almost every day, something may break, and a game may stop mid-sentence. When it does, write to info@saylias.com or to the @saylias channel. That is what the beta is for.

How it works

1

Get everyone together

Up to twelve people, two teams or more. A room code or a QR, and everybody is in.

2

Explain and guess

A minute a round. Only the explainer sees the word. Guessed it — next one.

3

Travel the map

Every word guessed moves your team’s piece. Thirty steps to the finish, and a certificate for whoever gets there first.Every word guessed moves your team’s piece. Thirty steps to the finish, and the win goes to whoever gets there first.

Two ways to play

One table

Everyone in one room, each on their own phone. The phone is the card the person next to you cannot see.

The explainer sees the word
The team guesses out loud

Online

Each in their own place. Video and voice are built in — no separate call needed. For the round, the sound splits in two: hints do not travel.

The pair hears each other
The rest talk among themselves

Three looks

The look is a setting of your phone, like the theme: the person next to you may have another. Tap one — the page changes into it, and “Play” opens the game in it.

What’s inside

Seven languages

Russian, English, Slovenian, German, French, Spanish, Italian — each list written for its language, not translated into it.

Five levels

From very easy to very hard. A level is a mix of cards, not a filter: easy and hard are dealt together.

Nothing to install

Opens in the browser. Can live as an icon on your home screen.

Rating

Elo per language and season. Games with bots or guests do not count.
