Materials Needed:
Materials Needed:
- A variety of props, such as a colorful handkerchief, a cookie, a glass of liquid, and anything that is required to set the "scene"
- Paper
- Pencils, 1 for each player
Playing time on this one of the funniest party games for adults for 30-45 minutes.
How to Play:
1. Set the "scene" with various props.
2. Select one player to be the suspect and have the rest of the players mill about the scene. Have the suspect move through the room for one minute, doing a variety of task. For example, the suspect could remove a colorful handkerchief from his or her neck, set it down, take a bite of a cookie, shake hands with someone using the wrong hand, scratch an arm, start to take a drink but stop, set the glass on a different table, say something like "It's hot in here," rub an eye, pat someone on the head, and leave.
3. After the suspect leaves, hand out paper and pencils and ask the players to write down answers to questions about the scene and the suspect. For example: "What color was the handkerchief?" "Where did the suspect put it?" "What did the suspect eat?" "How many bites did the suspect take?" "Which hand was used to shake hands?" "How much did the suspect drink?" "Where did the glass come from?" "What did the suspect say?" "What did the suspect do next?" and "Whom did the suspect pat?"
4. When the players have answered all the questions, reenact the scene, and have them check off what they got right and wrong.
Variation:
Instead of asking questions, just have the players write down everything they can remember about the scene.
