This is a good game for all ages of people who can read/write. You’ll want a group of at least 6 people.
Supplies: Pens and paper for everyone
Game Instructions: You’ll have to brainstorm a bunch of questions before you begin this game.
Here are some ideas:
-If you returned to college today, what would be your new major?
-What was the best Christmas gift you received this year?
-If you could be a superhero, who would you be?
-What is the best movie ever made?
-If you could only eat one food for a whole month, what would it be?
-If you had to move outside of the country next month, where would you go?
-What is your favorite book?
-You’re stranded on an island with one person and one object of your choice. Who is the person and what is the object?
-What’s your favorite packaged snack?
-If you were a cartoon character, who would you be?
-What is something your friends know about you but your parents don’t?
Once you have your questions, divide your group into two teams. Read one question aloud. Everyone writes their answer on a slip of paper. The only rule for answers is that they have to be truthful. This doesn’t mean you have to write an obvious answer, but it does have to be true. After everyone has an answer, a person from Team A reads each of their group’s answers to the other team. The object of the game is to match the person to their answer. Teams earn points for each correct match. After Team B guesses and points are awarded, Team B reads their answers and Team A tries to match the correct person to each answer. It will sound something like this: “We think Joe said Brazil, Pete said Ecuador, Sally said New Zealand, and Grandpa said Tahiti.” The other team will respond with, “That’s two points for you. You got Joe and Pete but you missed the other two.”
We really love this game. You learn so much about each other!
