How it plays

Wavelength is a team party game about reading each other's minds. One player sees a hidden target on a dial and gives a clue that fits somewhere between two opposite ideas, like "hot" and "cold" or "overrated" and "underrated".

Their teammates discuss and turn the dial to where they think the target is. The closer they get, the more points they score. The other team can guess whether the answer is left or right of the dial for bonus points.
