Get set up

No equipment is required. Gather the group where everyone can hear the explanation and demonstrate one sample turn before starting.

LET’S PLAY

Here’s how it works.

  1. Explain how players will show choice A and choice B.
  2. Read a light either-or prompt.
  3. Everyone chooses at the same time.
  4. Invite one or two volunteers to explain an interesting choice.
  5. Continue with a new prompt.

A few ground rules

Keep the agreed turn order, boundaries and timing consistent for everyone. Players may pass or use an accessibility adaptation without penalty.

Mix it up

Use opposite sides of the room, seated hand signals or a rapid-fire round.

Make it a great round

Keep choices playful and avoid prompts that pressure people to reveal private information.

Keep everyone comfortable

Invite players to pass or adapt the activity. Keep walkways clear and choose a seated version when movement is unsuitable.
