This one is called Last 2
Take the last two letters of the previous word and make another word from it.
Example: Futon
Next person would make a word from the "on" like onset
Now if no word can be made from the previous word just say "no word" and come up with a new word.
I will start with the word:
bicycle
Next person makes a word with "le"
ethyl
There will probably be no word with yl so whoever posts next can come up with a new word.
