About the Game

Match what you see to what you hear.

Each of the 400 challenge cards features 8 colour-coded clues and 5 answers. The answers to 6 of the 8 clues will form pairs of homonyms (sounding the same, spelt the same way, but with different meanings). The remaining 2 answers are the 'red herrings'. They will be homophones (sounding the same, but spelt differently and with different meanings).

Your task is to identify the 2 homophones within 30 seconds to score points. Be the only player to find the red herrings and you will score a double win!
