The Spectrum

Each round features a card with two opposing concepts, like "Hot" vs "Cold" or "Fantasy" vs "Reality". The entire dial represents the range between these two extremes.

Step 2

The Clue

The Psychic sees a hidden target location on the dial. They must give a single clue (usually one word or phrase) that suggests that specific position on the spectrum.

Example: If the target is slightly towards "Hot" but mostly in the middle, the clue might be "Coffee".

The Guess

Step 4

The Reveal

The target is revealed! Points are awarded based on how close the guess was to the center of the target.
