Recreation Popularity Rankings for High School Students (61–70)
Armony Game64rank/position

The “Armony Game,” featured on Fuji TV’s “AI-TV,” is a sing-along game that needs no preparation and gets everyone excited using only clapping and voices.
The parent sings “Ahh,” and then everyone follows by singing whatever song comes to mind.
It’s a lively game that everyone can join—without splitting into groups—and works from two people to large crowds.
No-No Yo Game65rank/position

This is a game where you say things that you’d hate to happen, set to the melody of the American folk song “Old MacDonald Had a Farm.” The rules are very simple, but coming up with those “things you’d hate to happen” on the spot is surprisingly hard.
If you’re playing with school friends, it’ll probably get lively if you use themes like your class, studying, club activities, or teachers.
It might also be fun to do it as an endurance challenge like in the video.
Let’s see how long you can keep going without running out of ideas—game on!
Spot the fake trivia! Uchiku Doubt66rank/position

As the title “Uchiku Doubt” suggests, it’s a game where you discern whether the trivia spoken by members is true or false.
Anyone whose lie gets detected, or who shouts “Doubt!” at a piece of trivia that turns out to be true, must add one true trivia and one false trivia to their tally.
If you want to finish quickly, saying nothing might be the safest strategy… but don’t hold back—gather your courage and shout it out loud!
Lie Talk67rank/position

It’s a game where you build a fake story and keep the conversation going by thinking on your feet.
Since you’re only allowed to tell lies, it’s a good workout for your brain, and unless you plan quite a few steps ahead, it usually turns into nonsense.
I think it could lead to humorous conversations and really liven things up.
A prank where the pants gradually get shorter68rank/position

A prank called “Will they notice if the pants gradually get shorter?” They think they’re setting up the target, but it turns out the pranksters themselves get reverse-pranked.
Knowing that while you watch makes it funny! Be sure to check out how the reverse prank ends!
Dice stacking69rank/position

Dice stacking is a game where you use a special cup to stack 4–5 dice so they stand up like a tower.
Its stylish look makes it seem more enjoyable for high school students than for elementary or middle schoolers.
Another appeal is that it requires very few tools.
Old Maid with playing cards70rank/position

Old Maid is a classic card game, and we typically play it with around five people.
I also recommend trying it with a much larger group.
The more players you have, the harder it is to make matches, so the game takes longer—but the sense of accomplishment at the end is huge.
Why not try it with your entire class or club?
