The stimulus items are taken from the curriculum and every day life. Higher-level items are included to challenge the older players. Each double-sided card has 20 target words/stimuli. Players are divided into two teams: the delivering team and the receiving team. A game card is inserted into a shielded decoder, making the correct answers (target words) visible only to the delivering team. The delivering team announces the language area and the stimulus topic and sets the timer. The receiving team then gives answers as the delivering team keeps track of the responses by marking them off on the game card with a grease pencil. Players name as many of the words on the shielded card as they can within the time limit.
