Name on the Forehead Game

We play this game all the time while drinking or whatever at night....

Cut small pieces of paper and hand them out to everyone. Everyone writes the name of a person. They can be fictional, they can be real, they can be from books, TV, Video games, movies... whatever just so long as they are not a thing or object. Examples: George Bush, Donald Duck, Jude Law, Harry Potter, etc.) Next, put a piece of tape on the back of the card and stick it to someone else's forehead. This way, you and everyone else playing can see who this person is but, they can't. When everyone has a card pick someone to go first. They get to ask 'yes' or 'no' questions. Examples: Am I fictional? Am I on TV? Am I a man? Am I a duck? If the person gets the answer 'yes' then they get to keep asking. When they get a 'no' it is someone else's turn. We usually go in a circle just to keep it easy. We also allow 'recap' which means at the beginning of your turn you can say all the things you know about yourself outloud, in order to help you think. I find this very important if there are large groups because you can get so caught up in everyone else, you forget! It is an excellent game for hanging around.

Just some tips: Don't ever put God on someone. It's either very easy or very confusing (i.e. No one knows how you answer the 'am I real' question...)

Excellent idea!

I love this! I think this would be a great idea for kids to play too. I can see the Brownie Troop getting a big kick out of it when we go on our camping trip. Thanks for the idea!
