How to play
Choose a detective and send them out of the room. The group chooses a Secret Dancer who starts a dance move, and everyone else copies. Call the detective back to the centre. The Secret Dancer stealthily changes their move every 10 seconds or so, and everyone follows. The detective has three guesses to identify the Secret Dancer. Fail to guess and the dancer wins. Guess correctly and the detective wins. Play music in the background if you like.
