Just One: New Version is a board game released in 2025 for 3–7 players, 20 minutes per game, and ages 8 and up. It was designed by Bruno Sautter and Ludovic Roudy and its main mechanics are Cooperative Game and Communication Limits.
Just One is a co-operative party game in which you all play together to get the best score! Your goal each round is to get one player — the active player — to guess a mystery word based on the clues given by teammates. In more detail, everyone who is not the active player sees the mystery word, then each player independently writes a clue on their personal easel. Once everyone has finished, you reveal the clues to one another. All identical clues are removed from play, so try to be original! After eliminating duplicate clues, reveal the remaining clues to the active player. If they correctly guess the mystery word, your team scores a point. If they decline to guess, you don't score the current card. If they guess wrong, you don't score the current card and you lose one of the points you had already scored. Thus, be original, but not so original that you don't help the active player guess correctly! Can you achieve a perfect score by guessing all the mystery words? Just One: New Version features the same gameplay as Just One, but features 550 new terms on its 110 cards and erasable crayons instead of dry-erase markers.
Just One: New Version supports 3–7 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Just One: New Version is 20 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Just One: New Version for ages 8 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Just One: New Version has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game.
