One Letter per Person Quiz

[Episode 1] Join forces to find the answer! One-letter-per-person quiz!

The “One Character Per Person Quiz” is a game where all participants cooperate to produce the correct answer.

After listening to the question, if you know the answer, you write it on the board.

However, since each person writes only one character, make sure to check which part of the answer you’re responsible for before writing.

If everyone’s contributions connect to form the correct answer, you clear the round.

If even one person makes a mistake, it’s game over, so it’s quite a tense game.

It’s often used on quiz shows, so with a simple explanation, everyone can get excited and into it right away!

Icebreaker

ABC of Icebreakers: UFO

It’s a simple game where you clap when the leader’s hands overlap, but with feints and such, you can almost hear the laughter naturally bubbling up.

Since anyone can play regardless of age, it seems perfect for mixers or social gatherings.

It might also be fun to turn it into a tournament.

Parody Song Game

Bursting into laughter with Fishers while playing a parody song game!!

It’s a game where you sing along to a children’s song, but just before you start singing, the name of a dish appears as the prompt, and you have to improvise lyrics that match that dish.

It can get pretty chaotic and the lyrics can end up nonsensical, so it takes a lot of adaptability to sing a proper song.

Red light, green light

[Guinness World Records] Tried playing “Daruma-san ga koronda” with 740 people

It’s such a popular and simple game that it hardly needs explaining: players can move only while the “oni” is facing the pillar or wall and chanting “Daruma-san ga koronda.” If anyone moves at any other time, they’re out.

Played with a large group on a school playground, it’s bound to be especially fun.

Gojūon Order Game

Guaranteed to be a hit! A party game everyone can play at school!

The game is played with three or more people.

You take the first syllable in Japanese alphabetical order and quickly say three-letter words in rhythm, like “aisu (ice) → iruka (dolphin) → rubī (ruby).” After saying a word, you point to the next person to choose them.

It feels like the rhythm games that used to be on TV.
