It’s Password meets Taboo meets Family Feud in this video-driven game that was sourced by fellow youth workers.
How It Works:
We asked youth pastors from around the world to give us 4 distinct words they associated with a given item. A category will be given for the given item with a point amount at the bottom (20pts). One at a time, we will reveal the 15 of the more common “buzz words” youth pastors gave to describe the item. As the “buzz words” appear, the point total will decrease. A contestant can “Buzz In” (suggestion: seriously have them literally shout “BUZZ” to stop the video) and make a guess to what the item is. If they are correct, they get the points. If they are wrong, they are not able to answer again, and the video resumes. Game play goes until a correct answer is given (lowest score of 5 points) or the game leader decides there is no winner.
How To Play:
There are several ways you could play this game, but our recommendation is to play it as an “up front” team competition.
- Divide the Group into 2-4 teams (seating sections, grades, boys v. girls, students v. leaders, homeschool v. normal kids… whatever works best for you).
- Bring a representative for each team to the front to participate for the first round.
- Decide ahead of time if you will allow the crowd to give their rep suggestions for the answer or if they must remain quiet leaving the answer solely on their team rep.
- Bring up a new team rep for each round to allow for a larger amount of participants.
