How to play
Give everyone a sheet with a grid of facts and a pen. Sixteen boxes works well, mixing easy fills with rarer ones so the sheet doesn't finish in ninety seconds. Try:
• has been overseas
• can speak another language
• has lived in another city
• has a piercing
• doesn't like chocolate
• has been bungee jumping
• has been to a concert
• plays the guitar
• was born in the same month as you
• is a really good dancer
• can cook really well
• has a pet
• can whistle
• has broken a bone
• plays a team sport
• has been on TV
Leave room under each fact for a signature. On 'Start', everyone mingles to find somebody who matches each box and gets them to sign it. First to fill the whole grid wins. Finish by talking through some of the answers as a group. Without that, it's a race rather than a way of getting to know each other.
