TeleGiphy

Overview

TeleGiphy is based off the icebreaker game, “Telephone”, where an original message is passed along a chain of players through whispers, and is entertaining through the often very distorted message at the end.

TeleGiphy is a spin-off of the game that relies on Giphy’s magnificent random-ness when selecting gifs instead of whispers to distort messages.
