Crossword Genius

Drunk crashed a party game (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

charades

'party game' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'drunk crashed a' is the wordplay.
'drunk' indicates an anagram.
'crashed'+'a'='crasheda'
'crasheda' is an anagram of 'CHARADES'.

(Other definitions for charades that I've seen before include "Guessing game where words are acted out" , "Game in which answers are acted out" , "Miming parlour game" , "Miming games" , "Games like this" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
