WordARound – Fast-Paced Word Game for Team Building & Icebreakers
Who knew that positioning a word in one continuous ring could make it so tricky to read? WordARound challenges players to quickly spot where the word starts on a circular card and be the first to shout it out. It sounds simple, but you’ll be surprised at how baffling—and addictive—it can be! The more players you have, the more exciting and energetic the game becomes.

Quick Flip – Team Building Variation
In this re-engineered version, each participant gets a stack of cards and finds a partner. Players note the color on the back of their partner’s top card, which determines which colored ring to look for when the card is flipped. On your signal, both flip their top cards and race to identify the word in the matching colored ring. Whoever finds the word first scores a point. After each round, swap cards and partners for 5–6 exchanges or until someone reaches 10 points. This variation infuses quick thinking, friendly competition, and lots of laughs into any group setting.
