I played a travel game with my sixteen year old on our last road trip. We made it up.

You mention a descriptive word that conjurs a particular set of imagery. The next person "it" has to respond with a descriptive that relates to the word but totally changes the imagery. When done right the descriptors that follow one another will be related but the odd numbered or even numbered descriptors are totally unrelated. You cannot comment on the other person's descriptors (like with brainstorming it blocks creative thought). You end the game when someone brings back the original image.

Example:
candle
twinkling eyes
mischief
Escape from Alcatraz
moving in the night
light a candle
