Spectrum Guess prompt generator
Wavelength Prompt & Category Generator
Play Spectrum Guess by passing one phone, with private guesses, a hidden target and automatic scoring. Keep Cards only for fresh Wavelength® spectrum pairs, or use Rooms to play on separate screens.
Generate Wavelength® Categories Online
CardYard creates fresh Wavelength® game spectrum pairs with AI so your group can focus on clue-giving instead of writing cards. Use it as a Wavelength® category generator for funny prompts, custom themes, adult categories, classroom topics, work themes, and party ideas.
Open the generator on a phone, tablet, or laptop and draw a fresh spectrum pair. Use it for quick group discussion, with a physical game setup, or create a Room when every player wants to guess from their own screen.
How to Use the Wavelength Prompt Generator
- Choose a category or custom theme in CardYard.
- Generate a spectrum pair and read it to the group.
- Choose Pass the phone for a complete local match, or Cards only for a prompt-only round.
- Choose Room when every player wants a private online dial.
- The clue giver sends one clue that points to the hidden target.
- Reveal every guess together and score by distance from the target.
