Notes
Mirror charades. Just like charades, but two people go up instead of one. One person know what they are acting out and perfoms the charade behind everyone trying to guess. The other person does not know, and simply mimics the first person, since they are the only one who can see them. It's odd how much harder this version is.

Spoons.It's like a kinda violent musical chairs. All you need is some spoons and a pack of cards.You all sit round a table, and lay out spoons in the middle, one less than the total number of players. You then deal out all the cards in the deck. On 'GO', you pass one card from your hand to the person on your left.The idea is to keep it moving quickly, almost rhythmically, and the objective is to get four cards in your hand that are the same eg 4 Kings etc.Once you have four of the same cards, you can make a grab for the spoons in the middle. As soon as someone makes a grab, every other player can make the grab. Think of it as the music stopping in musical chairs.At the end, one person will be left without a spoon and they are out. One spoon is taken away, and the game begins again until only one winner remains. The overall winner gets great glory and riches.Things degenerate quickly into a minor brawl once that first spoon is grabbed.If you like serious injury, you can use knives instead of spoons.59Give AwardShareReportSavelevel 2Kotetsuya · 9 yr. ago · edited 9 yr. agoThe Hardcore version of that game is that you have one person sit out of the game, and after every round, the all the players leave and the person hides the spoons around the room. Once someone get's 4 of the same card, they have to make a mad dash to try and find a spoon*

In Ninja, you basically for a circle of people, decently close together, but not touching. Everyone puts their hands in the middle and whoever is starting the game does the count down "3 2 1 ninja!". At that point everyone strikes some sort of pose, but be careful because you're stuck that way briefly. The person who called then can move one hand, in some sort of sweeping motion, to try to hit another persons hand. That person is allowed to dodge, but only in sweeping motions. Wherever your momentum takes you though, you have to freeze again. If you manage to get the other person's hand then they're out and the circle closes where they were. You go clockwise until there's you're down to two. First one to get the other's hand wins, going back in forth in turns of course.
