Ages: From 10 to adult

Recommended Number of Players:
Between 6 and 20

Equipment:
No equipment necessary

Set Up:
No prior set-up required

How to Play:
This is a very simple game that can include the entire group. It can be hard if the circle gets too big, but it can still be done.

Have everyone sit in a circle. All the players closes their eyes and lower their heads. Then the leader calls out 1-2-3-Look! As the leader calls "look," the players look up at one specific person. Make sure you instruct them that they cannot change who they look at, because if you and the other person happen to be looking at each other then you are both out.

When the player looks up he/she looks at one specific person. If that person is looking back at him/her, both players are out. If that person is looking at a different person, the player puts their head back down and waits for the next call of "1-2-3 Look."

Continue the game rapidly until only two players are left.

Continue bringing the chairs in closer and closer, and eventually you'll be left with two people. Just remember that if 2 people are looking at each other, they are both out!

Winner:
Actually, there can be two winners. Those left in the circle who haven't been caught looking at each other wins.
