About the Game

Writing on the Wall is a team-based party game inspired by the story of Daniel and the handwriting on the wall. Players take on one of three roles each turn: The Hand, The King, or The Interpreters. The Hand secretly chooses a message and draws it onto the Wall Screen using only a finger. The King watches the mysterious writing appear and must describe what they see to their teammates. The Interpreters can never see the drawing themselves. They must rely entirely on the King's descriptions to uncover the hidden message. Communication is key, but there's a catch: if the King accidentally says the secret word, the turn immediately ends and the team scores nothing. Writing on the Wall offers a unique blend of drawing, clue-giving, teamwork, and deduction.
