5 Second Rule
Players must quickly name three items that fit a given category before a five-second timer runs out. Each round one player reads a prompt and the active player has five seconds to provide three responses aloud while opponents watch and judge correctness. The game uses a distinctive twisting timer that limits thinking time and encourages fast, instinctive answers. Play proceeds in turns with players earning points for successful triples; incorrect or repeated answers score no points and pass the turn to the next player.
