Imposter game words: Corner Shop
100 words with hints. Pick one, give it to everyone except the imposter, and play.
How a word is used
Everyone in the group except the imposter sees the word. With hints on, the imposter sees the hint instead, so they can blend in without knowing the word.
Example from this list: for "postage stamps" the imposter sees "lick". For "hot sauce" they see "brave". For "iced tea" they see "sweating bottle".
