coveting Various (old) celebrities, and you have to say if they’re dead or alive.

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 22/01/2021 20:52

Judging by my reaction to the TV/radio news, I'd say it's a round that goes something like:

Dead or Alive?

  1. Actor big in the 80s
  2. Singer big in the 60s
  3. Long-forgotten politician from the Thatcher era
etc etc

Over and over again I find myself saying 'X has died? I'd forgotten X even existed! If anybody had asked, I'd have said they'd been dead for years ...'

A good round for us was called ‘fetch’ the host would ask the players to grab a random object you can find in the home I.e a teaspoon, and the first person to bring it back won the point

Chocolate bars.
Take them out of packaging and cut in half

"Where's Bernie Sanders?" Photoshop him in his wee mittens into various places and have people state where he is.

PaigeMatthews · 23/01/2021 19:39

Watch house of games! I love that show. I particularly live the two clues you smash together to get one answer for example:

One example from the show was - a photo of audrey hepburn and the clue was the plant through which God revealed himself to Moses.

Answer: audrey hepburning bush.

@MrsFionaCharming

You can go on a supermarket website and get the ingredients list for common biscuits (bourbons, custard creams, nice biscuits etc), and have people guess the biscuit from the ingredients.
Love this one!

I remember doing a quiz and one of the rounds was 'Guess the logo'. You can use car logos, food, drink, anything.

MrsBeltane · 23/01/2021 20:20

Names of pasta shapes.
First lines of books.

needadvice54321 · 23/01/2021 20:21

Guess the baby celeb - harder than you think

Guess the vegetable/fruit/veg

Yes we did this one too! You can find loads online

Guess the very short intro. Single note if your music control is any good.
From that intro, name the track artist and year.
If you can prepare beforehand. Get each player to send a photo of their favourite sock. Everyone then has to guess who owns which sock.
Harry Potter spells
What was the year- from news headlines famous births music
Name the car make and model from old pictures you find online

This may not be relevant, depending where you live, but my favourite ever picture round was one where you had to guess the Greggs pasty from the lattice on top.

covetingthepreciousthings · 24/01/2021 07:20

If you can do a music round, there's a music round on House Of Games that I always think is good where you have to guess how long it is before the singing kicks in on a song. So play the first very few bars, and the turn it off, and people have to count how long they think.

EnjoyingTheSilence · 24/01/2021 07:32

IKEA is obviously very popular, the one I’ve played is IKEA or death metal, very funny.

Another good one is who said it - Trump or Kanye West

BernadetteRostankowskiWolowitz · 24/01/2021 07:43

Disney horses - pictures of the horses that have appeared in Disney animations. 2 points for the name of the movie, 3 points for the name of the horse. 5pt per qu.

PuddleglumtheMarshWiggle · 24/01/2021 08:21

Another audio one, TV theme tunes. It's easy to get confused between the Blue Peter theme and Captain Pugwash
Film taglines
Left or Right - does the Statue of Liberty hold the torch in her left or right hand?

peak2021 · 24/01/2021 08:27

If you had one on Covid rules, it would be interesting to see how low the scores would probably be.

butterfly990 · 24/01/2021 13:43

We had a round called breed of chicken or motorway services
