The rules

Goal

Be the one who manages to guess the most names.

Step 1

Step 2

Step 3

Step 4

Step 5

Get into teams of 4-5 people

When the minute is up, pass the bowl to the 2nd team and it is their turn to do the same thing. Pay attention, as these names will come up in Round 2! Turn the bowl like this until there are no more 'boulettes' inside. We then count the boulettes won by each team.

• The team chooses a player who must draw a ball from the bowl and try to make the team guess the name using clues (no right to name the letters in the name or the number of letters).
• When the team has guessed the name, the player keeps it in his hands and draws another. The team has 1 minute to guess as many names as possible.
• If the player really does not know who it is, they have the right to 1 “pass” and he can put the ball back in the bowl.

Rounds 2 and 3

The second round is played by putting the same names back into the bowl. So we play again with the right to say only 1 word! The third round is only by mimes.

Add your ages together.

The team with the highest number goes first!
