Just One

[Live Action] A word-association board game where there are way too few hints only when it's for Radda — Just One

If you want to strengthen bonds with a cooperative game, Just One is perfect.

First, one player draws a card with a secret word on it.

That player doesn’t look at the word and has to guess what it is based on clues given by the other players.

It sounds easy at first, but there’s a rule: any clues that are duplicated by multiple players are removed and can’t be seen.

So you’ll need to come up with hints that aren’t too straightforward.

Stick Stack

Head-to-Head Analog Game Showdown While Traveling! [Stick Stack]

If you’re looking for a balance game, Stick Stack is highly recommended.

In this game, you place sticks on top of a wobbly, swaying tower.

Don’t just stack them—try propping your sticks against your opponent’s or positioning them to make it harder for your opponent to place theirs.

It might take some ingenuity to play online, but you’re sure to have fun.

Another charm of this game is the vivid, beautiful colors of the sticks.

It’s a 3-on-3 team match, so start by gathering your members.

Pétanque

Introduction to the new sport: Petanque

Do you know pétanque, a sport that originated in France? It’s gaining attention as a new sport, but in France it has long been loved as a national pastime.

The rule is simple: you throw your ball from within a circle, and whoever gets closest to the center wins.

However, like curling, it’s also allowed to knock away your opponent’s ball.

Because of that, not only throwing skill but also strategy is required.

If you hold it online, it might be a good idea to add some tweaks to the rules.

Mölkky

Mölkky Live DIY: Japan Championship!!

Let me introduce the sport called Mölkky.

It’s a game that originated in Finland and has its roots in a traditional pastime called Kyykkä.

The basic idea is to throw a wooden pin called a “mölkky” at a set of standing wooden pins called “skittles” to knock them down.

Each skittle has a number on it, and the side whose total from the knocked-down skittles gets closest to 50 wins.

The equipment is relatively inexpensive, so it might be fun for each person to play at home.

Alternatively, team competitions can also be very exciting.

long rope jumping

Incredible team skipping challenge – Guinness World Records

I think many people have tried long-rope jumping (double dutch with a long rope).

Players jump into a big swinging rope one after another and compete to see how many jumps they can make.

There’s also a version where everyone lines up and jumps together.

Either way, doing it helps strengthen bonds with your teammates.

In recent years, there have even been online competitions for long-rope jumping.

Participants submit videos and compete based on their records.

If we adapt that idea, it could be fun to do in a livestream as well.
