Time's Up! Academy
Players compile a shared deck of famous people, movies, TV shows and songs drawn from individual card selections, then use that same deck across three timed rounds. Teams take turns with a 30-second sandglass while a cluegiver tries to get teammates to name as many entries as possible. Round 1 allows any verbal and physical clues and forbids passing. Round 2 restricts clues to a single word plus sounds and gestures and permits passing; teammates may offer only one guess per card. Round 3 allows only nonverbal clues and unlimited passing, with a single guess per card. Scoring is based on correct identifications after all rounds.
