Brain Matching Game

Teamwork is important, isn’t it? 😢Sanwa System Co., Ltd.translationTranslation

Original Song – Sanwa System Co., Ltd. – Sanwa System Co., Ltd.

Here’s an idea for an indoor recreation game of logic and unity for teams of three: the “In-Sync Brain Game.” When the host poses a prompt like “What comes to mind with spring?”, the three players take turns announcing one character at a time to complete a meaningful three-character word.

Whether the answer is “sa-ku-ra” (cherry blossoms) or “ha-na-mi” (flower viewing), both count as correct.

However, if it doesn’t form a valid word, it’s a miss.

Discussion is prohibited; the core of the game is to infer each other’s thinking as you go.

The joy of nailing it in sync and the laughter when you’re out of sync blend perfectly to energize the room.

It’s an ideal brain-training cooperative game for icebreakers among adults and team-building sessions.

Working Memory Game

[Crew Challenge! Working Memory Game 🧠] This time’s challenge is… Ready, set, go! 💨 We took on the Working Memory Game, where you carefully memorize the sample illustration and then draw the same picture relying only on your memory ✍️✨ It’s not just about drawing! By rhythmically repeating “look 👀,” “remember 🧠,” and “draw 🖍️,” and adding movement into the mix, your brain goes into full throttle!After-school day serviceChild Development Support# developmental support (ryōiku)#ADHD#Indoor Play#CrewChallenge#BEARKIDScrew

It’s a game where you move to a sample shape posted at a distance, check it, and then copy it at your own spot.

Since the flow is to move and check, then return to your place and draw, it’s a short distance but it’s important to remember it well.

The more complex the sample shape is, the harder it becomes to remember, so prepare shapes suited to the participants.

The interesting point is that adding the action of moving and then drawing makes even simple memories more difficult.

Sorting Challenge

Isn't your memory way too amazing? Challenge, miracle, memory, fyp, viral, recommended, JK, JC, quuun

♪ Original song – QUUUN!! – QUUUN!!

It’s a game where you memorize the order of plastic bottles filled with colored water lined up on a table, then put on a blindfold and figure out how they were swapped.

You only have a limited time to look at the initial arrangement, so it really tests how much you can imprint it in your memory.

By adjusting the initial memorization time and the time to think about which ones were swapped, you can change the game’s difficulty.

The closer the colors are, the harder it becomes to remember, so try various patterns by tweaking the colors and time settings.

Playing cards are a classic go-to for indoor fun.

Because there are so many different ways to play, they’re popular as games that even adults can enjoy.

For example, everyone knows games like Daifugō (President), but in fact there are all kinds of local rules.

When people from different areas get together, why not try enjoying those local rules as well?

Debate showdown

[INI FOLDER] EP.130 Debate Showdown 🗣 - Part 1
Debate showdown

A debate showdown where you deliberately take different positions and argue a theme with logical persuasion.

There are also shows on the internet and TV where celebrities face off in debate matches, right? Memorable quotes from Hiroyuki during his debate showdowns also became a hot topic.

A debate showdown game, where you skillfully put what you think and feel into words, can help you develop your ability to communicate.

It’s also crucial to listen closely to what your opponent says and, when you’re on a team with opinions different from your own, to think objectively.

How about forming teams with a few friends and giving it a try?

The game where you must not say “yes.”

With someone I’m meeting for the first time, I always end up saying “yes” [Van Yun]
The game where you must not say “yes.”

The “Don’t Say Yes” game is exactly what the title implies: a game where you must never say “yes.” It’s especially fun when you play with older friends, teammates, or superiors you usually speak to politely.

The basic format is like an interview, but if you want to make it even more exciting, secretly play the game without telling the person who’s not allowed to say “yes.” Listen in on their conversations, and if they say “yes,” they get fined—adding rules like this makes it more thrilling! It’s simple, but the ways to play are endless, so give it a try!

2-beat 3-beat game

Hand-Clap Game with 2/4 and 3/4 Time—Fun for Elementary School Kids
2-beat 3-beat game

A brain-training hand game where you keep different rhythms with each hand at the same time: the “2-beat/3-beat game.” For example, with your left hand you move up and down to mark a 2-beat rhythm, while with your right hand you trace a triangle to mark a 3-beat rhythm.

Each hand alone is easy, but doing both together is guaranteed to scramble your brain! Start slowly, then gradually increase the speed as you get used to it.

You can adjust the difficulty by switching hands or reversing the movements.

The surprising difficulty will make you laugh, and the sense of accomplishment when you succeed is addictive.

It’s also great for seniors’ brain training, party entertainment, or as an icebreaker at work.
