Read the Face
Nine feelings on screen. One person shows one with their face only. Everyone calls the number.
The screen shows nine feelings, numbered. One person silently picks a number and shows that feeling with their face only, and the room calls out which number they think it is — all at once. Because everyone knows the shortlist the guessing is sharper and funnier, and it quietly makes the point that we read each other constantly and get it wrong.
Before anything about communication, empathy or reading a room — and any time you want something quiet with a real point.
