Game Night Just Got Real

Check out several ways to play and explore nearly limitless potential for conversation and fun.

Players: For the person answering: be authentic . . . there is no right or wrong answer!

Listeners: NO judgement of answers and NO clarification of questions (each player should interpret the question for themselves and answer uniquely accordingly).

Basic Rules

Play by yourself or with a group.
Roll the dice.
Draw a card.
Match the symbol with a category.
Each player takes a turn answering the card questions.
Allow one minute for each person to think, reflect, and answer.

Guess Who

How well do you know the group?

Grab pens and paper for each player in the group.
Each player rolls the dice.
The player who rolls handstand symbol becomes the group “Lens” (or moderator), and reads the question out loud.
Allow the group, including the Lens, one minute to write down the question and answer.
Players initial their sheet, turn in to the Lens, and Lens reads the answers.
The Lens does not share when they are reading their own answer versus other players, making sure to keep the sheets hidden.
Allow all players to vote on each answer as to who they believe is the author.
A point is given to all who match correctly the answer to the correct person.
After five rounds, the player with the most points wins!

Second Chance

We all deserve a second chance!

Play in a group using the original rules of play.
When everyone finishes answering the question, the round continues in the same order.
Allow each player another chance to answer the same question.
Some players may not have a second answer, but that’s ok!
Once you complete two rounds of the same question, roll the dice and move to the next question.

Picture This

A picture is worth a thousand words, right?

Grab pens and paper for each player in the group.
Each player rolls the dice.
Player who rolls handstand symbol becomes the group “Lens” (or moderator), and reads the question out loud.
Lens rolls dice, matches symbol to question on card and asks a question to the group.
Each player draws their answer to the question.
The Lens then collects the drawn answers and everyone has to guess what it is.
One point is awarded for a correct guess.
You decide how many rounds to play, but player with most points wins!

Pass Please!

Just like a party invite, we all get to ‘pass’ if need be!

Grab pennies, peanuts or paper to serve as a PASS card for each player in the group.
Each player gets one PASS.
Using the original rules of play, add this PASS to give each player the option to not answer one question for each round of play.
