Noun guessing quiz
One person (the question setter) thinks of a noun, and the others ask any yes-or-no questions about that noun.
The group collaborates to ask questions and tries to arrive at the answer within the time limit—it’s that kind of game.
Since overlapping voices on Zoom make it harder to hear than in-person conversations, make sure to ask questions smoothly so the question setter can hear clearly.
Another point that makes it easy for people to join is that the difficulty can be adjusted through detailed rules, such as the category of things to think of and the time limit settings.
In conclusion
We introduced icebreakers that can be enjoyed by large groups and online.
Even with faces you’ve seen a few times or people you know, being on an online screen can make you a bit nervous or hesitant to speak.
Be sure to use these in those situations.
