A sample round with animals

The secret word is Penguin. With hints on, the imposter sees only “Animals” and “Ice”. Crew players each give one word that proves they know it, without naming its most obvious feature. The imposter listens, then gives a word that fits both the hint and the clues so far. When the vote comes, the crew looks for the clue that fits animals in general but not penguin in particular.
