First, in the Buzzer Battle phase, each team chooses a champion to go head to head. Teams are given a topic, such as “Movies with dogs”. one player starts the 15-second timer, yells out a relevant movie, then whacks the buzzer to reset the time. The other team is now in the hot seat and has to do the same. Whoever runs out of time hands the advantage to the other team. Then in the Triple Charades Jeopardy phase, teams have to guess the movie while you have to give 3 different types of clues: act it out, use one word, or quote from it.
