Across the letter course from A to Z – now the game gets started! Pronto? Ready? On your turn, you reveal a card and get your keyword for the next round. From now on, the time is running – unfortunately, that hour glass is hidden. Who will find the right terms for his theme as quickly as possible? Car brands, kinds of flowers, or beverages – not everything is in every player's line. Only if the next term starts with the right letter will you make a step forward. And even if you're on a roll, you can never feel too safe. Time flies by unmercifully and unnoticed. You get a few words closer to your goal in Pronto only if there are a few grains left when the sand timer is revealed.
Pronto supports 2–12 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 Pronto is 30 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 Pronto 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.
Pronto has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
