Copy Cat Circle

Copy Cat Circle
Needs a room

One leader. One catcher. Can you spot who's controlling the room?

The catcher turns to face the wall. The screen names the leader β€” whoever is directly opposite the catcher β€” and tells them the first move, and everyone copies. The catcher turns back with three guesses while the circle tries not to look at the one person they cannot stop looking at.

Use this when

The room is warm enough to be silly but you want something with a puzzle in it rather than pure noise β€” and you have no props and no time to set anything up.

Props: None

Run this when…

If none of these is your room, pick another.
  1. A circle game that needs no props and no explanation

  2. A group that has warmed up but not yet laughed

  3. A fun transition between two heavier activities

  4. Any room where an observation game beats a movement one
