Charades Generator - Random Words

How to use a charades generator

Pick the category that suits the room, tap once, and act out whatever comes up. It works as a drop-in replacement for cards or folded slips of paper: nobody has to write anything in advance, and nobody can accuse anyone of writing themselves an easy word. Keep tapping for a new one whenever a round stalls.

Every word the generator can draw

All 300 words, grouped the same way the generator groups them. Read through if you would rather pick your own than tap for a random one.
