Random Charades Generator

This party game tool provides a comprehensive database of over 500 charades words organized across ten categories including Movies, TV Shows, Actions, Animals, Occupations, Celebrities, Sports, Food, Objects, and Emotions. The generator uses cryptographically-seeded random selection to ensure unpredictable word choices, with filtering options allowing users to restrict selections by category, difficulty level (easy, medium, hard), or any combination of settings.

Each word entry includes optional hints that players can reveal progressively when stuck, providing subtle clues without giving away answers directly. The built-in timer offers countdown options from 30 seconds to 2 minutes with visual and optional audio alerts as time expires. Timer controls allow pausing and resuming during gameplay, with automatic progression to new words when time runs out.

Team mode tracks scores for two competing teams with automatic alternation after each word, displaying current team indicators and running tallies. A history panel displays recently used words to prevent immediate repeats and help game moderators track progress. All gameplay features run entirely in-browser using React state management, requiring no account creation, server connectivity, or data storage beyond the current session. The extensive word database ensures hundreds of unique game sessions without repetition.
