<h3>How It Works</h3>
<ol>
<li>The admin creates categories (e.g., “Books”, “Movies”, “Animals”) and uploads a 64x64px icon.</li>
<li>Each category contains words/phrases and optionally a short comment (e.g., “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo” – Author: Larsson Stieg).</li>
<li>Players split into two teams and choose team names.</li>
<li>A random word or phrase is shown to one team while the others guess.</li>
<li>Each team has a set time (default: 90 seconds) to act out and guess the word.</li>
<li>Teams alternate turns; correct guesses earn points.</li>
<li>The team with the most points (or the fastest response time in a tie) wins!</li>
</ol>
