Contests and games for a close company, collected in this collection are suitable for those for whom it is boring to play only children's competitions, and in "- too much.

1. Game for a close company "On whose knees?"

For this competition, chairs are placed in a circle - one less than the participants. "Superfluous" - naked, they blindfold him, the rest sit on chairs. To the cheerful music, the “extra” begins to walk in a circle, but as soon as the music stops, he quickly sits down on his next knees. The one to whom he sat down should not betray himself in any way, because the task of the goer is to guess on whose knees he found himself. If he guesses, then the one who was “declassified” is already naked. If you didn’t guess right, he continues to burn.

You can simplify the rules a little and allow a blindfolded person to ask three leading questions, which, of course, will be answered by a specially appointed leader for this purpose. The following types of questions are allowed: “Man or woman?”, “Over thirty?”, “Brown-haired?” etc.

2. Cheerful competition "How many points of contact do you have?"

Two or three pairs are called for the game. From the hat they pull pieces of paper on which different parts of the body are written. The man pulls first. For example, an “ear” falls out to him, and he takes this part of his partner’s body with one hand. Then the lady pulls out of the hat, she gets the "priest", and she, without hesitation, takes her partner's ass with her hand. Then they again take out a piece of paper and touch the “new” parts of the body, while letting go of the previous ones is prohibited.

In the event that the pose reaches an incredible configuration, the couple can be offered chairs, a sofa or armchairs - let them continue in a reclining state. When they can no longer personally pull out the papers, they can be helped. Those men and women who have more points of contact win.

Very exciting hobby

The host asks three guys (men) who have interesting hobbies or activities to take part in the competition. He warns the players that they must not name their hobbies until the end of the competition, as the rest of the guests should use questions to try to guess them. Participants are asked to leave the room for a while (allegedly so that the rest of those present come up with questions.), And the host explains to the audience that this is a prank and all three players have the same hobby - kissing (for a more liberated company - sex). Players come back and answer questions based on their hobby.

The “fortuneteller” picks up a book and addresses it with a question of interest to him, for example: “Dear book ... (names the author and the title of the book), please tell me what awaits me next month?” Then he guesses any page and any line, for example: page 72, line 5 from the bottom (or page 14, line 10 from the top). Next, the player finds the desired line in the book at the specified coordinates, reads it out - this is the answer to his question.

Damaged Xerox

This is a modification of the famous game "broken phone". Players are divided into teams (preferably at least 4 people in each) and stand one after another. Players standing in front are given blank sheets of paper and pencils (pens). Then the leader approaches the last players in turn and shows them a simple picture prepared in advance. The goal of each player is to draw on the back of the person in front what is shown in the picture. The next player tries to understand what has been drawn to him, and then tries to draw the same picture on the back of the next. This goes on until the first player in the line, who draws the final version on a piece of paper. The team whose drawing ends up most similar to the original wins.
