DAIXIT puts your creativity and intuition to the test! Here's how it works:
-
🎯 The WordMaker's Turn: One random player becomes the WordMaker and selects a card from their hand with a clue that describes it.
-
🃏 Card Selection: All other players submit a card from their own hand that best matches the WordMaker's clue.
-
🧩 The Guessing Game: Everyone votes on which card they believe belongs to the Wordmaker.
-
⚡ Scoring Twist: Players get points if other players voted for their card, besides the WordMaker. Here's the clever catch - the WordMaker scores ZERO points if:
- 😱 EVERYONE guesses correctly (too obvious)
- 😭 NO ONE guesses correctly (too obscure)
- 😎 Otherwise, he gets his points (right in the middle)
- 🧠 Gemini 2.0 Flash creates imaginative, diverse prompts
- 🖼️ AI Horde API transforms these prompts into AI generated images
