The show featured game play similar to Password, with two teams (consisting of one celebrity and one contestant) attempting to guess the subject of puzzles based on clues provided by their opponents.
The clue-giver was shown the three clue words, but not the answer, and read out the one they thought would be least likely to help their opponent guess the stumper.
If the opposing player could not solve the stumper after the third clue, the clue-giver and their partner could score 15 points with a correct guess.
For the second round, two stumpers were played with all point values doubled, and either member of the receiving team could guess after each clue.
Ties were broken with one final stumper in which the host read one clue at a time, with anyone from either team able to buzz in.
The contestant could offer multiple guesses, and could pass on a stumper and return to it after playing through all 10 if time permitted.
