Greater Than Games Medium — Team Party Game for 2-8 Players | Read Your Friends' Minds in 30 Minutes

Discover Medium

Medium from Greater Than Games is a social word game designed for 2 to 8 players, ages 14 and up. In each round, two players team up to uncover a single word that connects two cards. When you and your partner think you’ve found the same word, you count down—three, two, one—and speak the word together. If your guess aligns, the moment feels electric; if not, the room lights up with laughs and playful banter as you regroup for the next round.

How the game unfolds

You’ll receive two word cards (for example, BANJO and TROPICAL) and work with a partner to identify a linking word. Open dialogue, quick thinking, and a dash of intuition help you narrow in on the common thread. The shared guess earns points and fuels the momentum for the next round.

• READ THEIR MINDS: You and your partner test your ability to spot a shared link between two words.
• BUILD TENSION WITH EACH DRAW: A crystal ball cue signals dwindling time and raises the anticipation as clues accumulate.
• LAUGHTER AND SURPRISE: Expect witty misfires and delightful moments when a guess lands just right.
• ESP CARDS ADD FRESH TWISTS: Optional cards introduce strategic moves that change the game’s dynamic mid-session.
• PERFECT FOR PARTIES: The quick rounds and easy setup suit cozy game nights and larger gatherings alike.

Why players love Medium

Beyond the objective, Medium delivers a mix of sensory cues—the scratch of a pencil, the buzz of a room, and the thrill of a well-timed shared guess. The experience rewards listening, pattern recognition, and fast teamwork, often ending in a satisfying sense of connection and a cheer from the group.

What’s in the box and how it scales

Two word cards flank each round, complemented by simple rules, a dramatic crystal ball countdown, and optional ESP cards that add strategic twists. The format scales from intimate nights with a few friends to lively game nights with larger groups, keeping the energy accessible while inviting competition.

Tips for great sessions:

• Rotate teams to keep conversations fresh and inclusive.
• Pause briefly to listen to your partner’s thought process; it can spark the right link.
