[For University Students] A Roundup of Fun Games and Recreational Activities (61–70)
Enjoy instantly! “Shingenchi Game”
Choose one person from the players to be the guesser.
The remaining members decide who will be the “epicenter,” then either stand in front of the guesser or form a circle with the guesser at the center.
At the start signal, the epicenter naturally strikes a pose—anything is fine, such as folding their arms, switching their pivot foot, or scratching their head.
The other members, with a slight delay, imitate the epicenter’s pose.
The guesser must observe who started the pose and identify the epicenter.
From kids to seniors! A color-sorting game that gets everyone excited
This is the perfect game for anyone looking for a fun singing activity.
First, let’s all sing “Seagull Sailor” together.
After that, hand out bracelets made from construction paper to the participants and divide them into three color groups.
The host will show a piece of construction paper that matches one of the bracelet colors, and only the team wearing bracelets of that color will clap.
Because you have to sing while also watching the host’s actions, it’s a great way to build concentration!
Werewolf Game for 10+ Players That Even Elementary School Students Can Play!
In addition to roles like “Werewolf” and “Villager,” it seems there are also roles such as “Android” and “God.” You can play using cards or with apps on smartphones, but that heart-pounding, exciting atmosphere of kids playing together face-to-face in the moment is likely to become a lasting memory.
Each time you add new roles, be sure to explain the rules carefully so everyone can enjoy the game while understanding it.
The video also features the role of “Lovers,” so be sure to try incorporating that as well.
Grandma Telephone Game
This is a slightly unusual game of Telephone called “Grandma Telephone.” In a normal game of Telephone, the goal is to pass the message along as accurately as possible so that the last person receives it correctly.
In this version, however, you have to speak like a grandma without her dentures—speaking without showing your teeth—and see if you can still convey the message accurately.
If you show your teeth, you get a penalty.
Match the answers game
It’s a “Match the Answer” game where someone gives a prompt, and you try to match the answer that the person who gave the prompt would choose.
For example, if the prompt is “What’s the best ramen shop?”, you write down the ramen shop you think that person would say.
It’s a game that tests how well you understand a close friend’s likes and hobbies.
Here’s hoping a streak of wrong answers doesn’t create an awkward atmosphere (lol).
U.S.A. game
This is the “U.S.A.
Game,” a craze sparked by the comedy duo Chocolate Planet.
Players say American ‘relatable facts’ in time with a segment of DA PUMP’s hit song “U.S.A.” If you miss the rhythm or your statement isn’t a true ‘relatable’ point, you’re out.
You’re also out if what you say isn’t widely known.
No-Laughing ○○ Showdown
“Don’t Laugh: ○○ Showdown” is a game inspired by NTV’s iconic ‘Absolutely No Laughing’ series.
As the name suggests, the only rule is that you must not laugh.
It sounds easy, but once you’re told not to laugh, you can’t help it! The game’s excitement hinges on how surreal and offbeat the material is.
Prepare funny videos of your friends or deliberately do half-baked impressions to make the participants crack up! If the penalties are too mild, the game gets sluggish, so make sure to prepare some tough punishments in advance!
