Indoor recreation popularity ranking (71–80)
KY game71rank/position
Participants take turns suggesting a prompt, and everyone simultaneously strikes a pose inspired by that prompt in this “KY game.” Anyone whose pose doesn’t match with anyone else receives a minus point; in the end, the person with the most minus points is deemed “KY,” meaning they failed to read the room.
The more participants there are, the more complex it becomes and the more clearly KY tendencies stand out, making it a lively party game.
Since it requires no equipment, you can start it right away even at an outdoor gathering.
Give it a try!
The ‘Another One Here-Hello Game’72rank/position
The “Mohitori Ororu Game” is apparently a game that Kanjani Eight used to play.
You present a prompt like “Breakfast time is 5 minutes.” When someone calls out “Mou hitori—,” if that applies to you too, you continue with the chant “Oru oru—.” The person who says “Oru oru—” and ends up being the only one wins.
Surprisingly, sometimes several people match, or nobody relates at all, so choosing prompts can be tricky.
It might even turn into a little confession time!
Make ice cream73rank/position
When you think of summer, you can’t help but crave an ice-cold frozen treat, right? Ice cream is easy to buy, so making it yourself might not even cross your mind.
But there’s actually a fun, simple way to make delicious ice cream—even kids can do it.
All you need is a food storage bag.
Just put the ingredients for the flavor you want inside the bag.
For example, for a yogurt-kiwi ice, add yogurt, kiwi, lemon juice, and honey to taste into the food storage bag, then squeeze and mash it with your hands.
Pop it in the freezer, and you’ll be amazed at how easily you can make a tasty ice treat! Try it with whatever flavors you like.
It’s a safe and fun indoor activity—and delicious, too.
Highly recommended.
Musical chairs74rank/position
Musical chairs is a great recommendation for recreation time in kindergarten and elementary school—a timeless classic.
While the music is playing, the children walk around the chairs; when it stops, they sit.
Quick reflexes and concentration are key.
It’s a game that’s always exciting, no matter the era.
Jenga75rank/position
Jenga is a classic game that’s great for playing indoors.
It may be a classic, but once you try it, it always gets everyone excited—there’s a reason it’s a staple! These days, there are all kinds of Jenga variations on the market, like Love Jenga that’s perfect for mixers and Punishment Jenga for forfeits.
Choosing one that suits the occasion will make things even more fun.
Bingo Tournament76rank/position
How about a classic party game: a bingo tournament? If you line up the numbers vertically, horizontally, or diagonally, it’s bingo.
People of all ages and genders can enjoy it.
December means Christmas, so be sure to try it at your Christmas party.
Let’s prepare some lavish prizes.
paper tower77rank/position
I think many people are looking for brain-engaging recreational activities.
In such cases, I recommend a game called “Paper Tower.” The rules are very simple: the person who stacks paper the highest wins.
You compete to see how efficiently you can build the tallest stack within a time limit, so use your head and devise a strategy.
