There are seven rounds in total, each one question and word based… but are a little different from just a straightforward ‘that’s the answer, mate’: There are two parts to the question and the answers are smashed together to get the final answer. It’s easy once you start… and remember there are no points if you only get half the answer!

The Elephant in the Room ( first played on Series 2, Episode 4): The players are given a word, and are then given questions to answer, but instead of answering them normally, they have to give the answer with the given word removed from the answer. For example, if the given word was "ham" and the answer to the question was Hammersmith, the player would have to say "mersmith" as the answer. Mime Time ( first played on Series 6, Episode 25): Each player is given a question, and they have to mime the answer to their partner. This country singer and actor who sang, ‘Live Like You Were Dying’ is married to Faith Hill and loves sushi. Cine-Nyms ( first played on Series 1, Episode 7 & last played on Series 2, Episode 50): The players are shown a quote from a film, but all its words have been replaced with synonyms of the actual words used. They need to work out the film for a point.

Well Done If You Said That at Home ( first played on Series 4, Episode 2): The players are shown a word cloud based on something like a film, TV show or book title, generated from a home viewer survey asking for three words they would associate with the title. The cloud is revealed to the players from the least popular word to the most popular. The players must buzz in with the correct title for a point. The title of this round is a reference to Osman's other quiz show, Pointless, which is based on home-viewer surveys. Which 2010 BBC TV show saw contestants compete to be in the West End Musical, ‘The Wizard of Oz’ and what was the name of the Greenpeace ship which was sunk by the French in New Zealand? e.g. Which country invaded the Falklands in 1982 and who had a hit with ‘What’s Love Got to Do With It’?

It's Not Me, It's You ( first played in Series 2, Episode 2, Round 2 & last played on Series 2, Episode 6, Round 4): Each pair in turn selects one of two pairs of categories. The two contestants then sit in front of the screen, with a divider preventing them from seeing each other. Each contestant is given a paddle with one of the categories written on it. Osman then gives a series of statements to which one of the two categories apply. For an answer to be considered correct, the contestant with the correct category must raise their paddle and the contestant without the correct category must keep theirs lowered. Giving a correct answer results in Osman moving on to the next statement. Giving an incorrect answer, both or neither contestants raising the paddles or taking too long to give an answer results in Osman declaring "incorrect" (without specifying why) and returning to the first statement. The pair have 90 seconds to give correct answers to as many unique statements as they can. They earn one point for each unique statement they gave a correct answer to. The Rich List ( first played on Series 1, Episode 4): The players have to write down an answer that is correct based on a statement given by the computer (there are multiple correct answers to each question). The players only get points for a correct answer that no other player chose, but as an added twist, Osman will also write down an answer to make it even harder. If he gives the same answer as a player then they don't get a point. a b "Richard Osman's House of Games - Series 6, Episode 100". BBC Online . Retrieved 30 August 2022. Hidden in Plain Sight ( first played on Series 4, Episode 14): The players are shown a statement based on a category. There is also a certain string of letters in the statement that spell out, in their entirety, the answer to the category description. These strings of letters can be inside of one word or can overlap through several words. The player must identify the answer and where the answer is spelled out in the question for the point.

Reichard Ösmans Haus Der Spiele (changed to Reichard Ösmanns Haus Der Spiele in Series 4) ( first played on Series 3, Episode 50): The pairs choose from a list of categories in different languages, and are given a multiple-choice question in that language. They choose which of the three possible answers (also in the said foreign language) is the correct one. What is the country whose capital city is La Paz and who played Sandy in the original ‘Grease’ movie? Richard's Junk ( first played on Series 5, Episode 17): At the start of the round, all players are shown a picture of some of Osman's various junk items. Players are given 15 seconds to memorise the items before the picture disappears. Players are then asked a series of questions for which the answer is one of the items in the picture (often in a punning way). They must buzz in with the correct answer to earn a point. After each question, the relevant item is revealed and is not used in future questions in that round. After all questions are asked, the first player to buzz in and name all items in the picture that were not used earns a bonus point. The game was named Santa's Junk for Festive House of Games, with the items being presented in person by Father Christmas.What’s in a Name 9 Questions (I have used Richard Osman but you can adapt to include friends and family names) Richard Osman's House of Games is a British quiz show produced by Banijay UK Productions subsidiary Remarkable Entertainment for the BBC.
