HUES AND CUES
Casual Game Insider|Fall 2020
In this party game about colors and shades, can you clue players in on the one color (out of over four hundred) that is yours?
HUES AND CUES

Each round of Hues and Cues , a player takes on the role of clue giver. They draw a card and choose one of the four colors shown on it. They then give a one-word clue that does not name the color, refer to its position on the board, or indicate anything in the room. Each other player then places a guess token on the color square that they believe is the clue giver’s color. The clue giver may then choose to give a two-word clue, in which case the other players each place a second guess token on the board. No two guess tokens can ever occupy the same color square.
