Party games that excite the crowd at school (71–80)
spin around with a bat
It’s a simple game where you spin around using a bat or stick for a counted number of turns, then head for the goal as soon as you finish.
It’s surprisingly difficult—some people can walk straight just fine after spinning, while others can’t walk at all—so the contrast often gets everyone laughing.
tongue twister
It’s a game where you say tongue twisters three times each.
It’s a school-friendly game that gets everyone excited as you tackle classics and a variety of other tongue twisters.
It’s fun to prepare progressively more difficult ones.
You can also have everyone come up with new tongue twisters together.
Flag-raising game
This is the “Flag Raising Game,” where you raise and lower red and white flags.
If you don’t have flags, prepare cloths or paper, like handkerchiefs, and move them according to the commands.
The person giving the commands should keep a lively tempo to make the game even more exciting.
One-in-a-hundred survey
Do you know the “1 out of 100 Survey,” a popular segment from the variety show Waratte Iitomo? It’s a game where you ask a question that seems likely to apply to only 1 out of 100 people, and you clear the challenge if exactly one person actually fits.
That said, gathering 100 people can be tough.
In that case, you can still enjoy it by reducing the number to, say, 10 people.
It’s also fine to play with a larger group, like 200 people.
Feel free to adapt it flexibly to suit your situation.
NG word game
Say this and you’re punished! The NG Word Game is a super simple game where you lose if you accidentally say your assigned forbidden word during conversation.
The keywords chosen by people you usually talk with tend to hit where it hurts.
If someone who knows your catchphrases picks the word, you might say it right at the start without a second thought.
When a battle of wits unfolds as everyone tries to draw out the NG words, the competition for the penalty will get even more exciting!
