Category Sprint
Name as many as you can before time runs out.
This Outburst-style party game hands you a random category and starts a timer while you race to name as many items as you can before it runs out. It's perfect for game nights and warm-ups, keeping the focus on fast prompts and a clock rather than fiddly setup.

자주 묻는 질문
How long should the timer be?
Sixty seconds is the classic Outburst length. Try 30 for a faster pace or 120 for an easier warm-up.
How do we keep score?
Track points on paper or in a notes app — the tool deliberately sticks to prompts plus a timer so play stays quick.
Are the categories random?
Yes. Each category is pulled at random using your browser's crypto.getRandomValues, so rounds stay unpredictable.
Does it need to be online?
No. The game runs entirely in your browser, works offline, and never sends any data to a server.

- A spelling list that never repeats the same 20 words
Recycling the same spelling list gives an unfair edge to whoever studied it last time. Here's a routine — a timed daily warmup, a no-repeat weekly draw you can export and print, and matching grade band to real ability — that keeps spelling practice fresh all year.

Name as many pizza toppings, cities, or 90s cartoons as you can before the clock runs out. Here's how a category sprint timer works, which category pack to pick for your crowd, and how to turn one round into a full party game.
- Scattergories without the arguments: fair letters, honest answers, and a timer that ends it
Scattergories lives or dies on three things: a letter nobody can call rigged, categories everyone can actually answer, and a clock that stops the round before the table starts negotiating. Here's how to run it cleanly with just a phone.
