We often play an Exquisite Corpse-style game we call simply "Words and pictures." Each person writes a sentence, then passes the paper to the right. The next person tries to draw the sentence in an understandable way, and folds over the original sentence, and passes it again. The sentence keeps being translated between words and pictures, and is often hilarious. No real drawing skills required.
Because I grew up with Oxford academics, my family growing up would also play the same thing but switching between English and Latin. Those who knew Latin would try to translate accurately, but us kids would write stuff that sounded more like bad Harry Potter spells, which the adults would have to make sense of.
