Top of the Circle

Top of the Circle
Needs a room

Everyone has a sign. Call your own, then someone else's. Slip up and you move down.

Every seat in the circle is numbered and each number has a sign on screen β€” antlers, moustache, crown. You pass play by making your own sign then somebody else's. Miss it and you move to the bottom, which changes everybody's sign as they move. Chasing the top seat while your own sign keeps changing is the whole game.
