Scores
There are 313 prompts across six categories: actions, animals, jobs, sports and hobbies, everyday moments, and made-up films, which are invented plots such as a ghost who is afraid of the dark rather than real titles. Easy cards suit young children; hard ones need a good deal of creativity. Family & kids leaves out the handful written for teens and adults, like an office party where the printer comes alive.
No card comes up twice until you have seen every card that matches your settings, even if you reload the page; Shuffle every card back in starts a new round of the whole deck. Classic signals help: hold up fingers for the number of words, and tug your ear for "sounds like".
Each game has its own deck, scoreboard and big-card mode. They all keep working offline once loaded.

Only if the actor is the one looking at it. Big-card mode fills the screen, which works well on a tablet or phone the actor holds while the guessers face the other way.
Team names, scores, settings and the cards you have seen are kept in this browser's local storage so a game survives a refresh. Nothing is sent to a server.
