A tip for this size
At seven, Blind Spy starts to shine, because a single wrong answer no longer points at one person. Ask each player to speak once before anyone speaks twice.

Questions
How many spies should I use with 7 players?
One is the classic choice. The game allows up to 3 for 7 players, which is a third of the group rounded up. Use 1 for a balanced round.
How long should the timer be?
Eight minutes is right. With the default eight minutes, each of 7 players gets about 69 seconds of talk.
Which mode is best?
Two Words or Blind Spy suits this size best. You can change the mode on the setup screen for each round.
