The presenter says 2-3 any words that are not related in meaning, for example, “paint,” “river,” “hare.” Participants in the game are asked to make sentences that include these words. The more offers there are, the better. For example, the following sentences can be made from these words: the hare discovered paints by the river; grandfather, cowardly as a hare, hid the paints behind the stove; on the river bank a hare was licking paints. The presenter rewards the participant who has made the most original and understandable proposal.
"Guess the phrase"
This entertaining game is as follows: one of the guests is asked to leave the room, and the rest must, in his absence, think of a phrase from a popular song. The guest returns. In order to guess the intended phrase, he asks questions to those present, who in turn must answer in such a way that one of the words of the intended phrase is present in the answer.
"Associations"
This game can be played with guests sitting at the table. The leader speaks any word into his neighbor's ear. He, without thinking, must immediately tell the next word that was his association with what he heard. He also tells his neighbor his association to the word he hears. So, along the chain, the turn reaches the last person at the table, who must say his word out loud. It is compared to the word spoken by the presenter. This comparison can be very interesting.
Lottery - Allegro
For this game, you need to prepare lottery tickets and, of course, prizes in advance (and more: so many that there are enough for each participant). Each lottery ticket is assigned its own lot, after which they can be distributed to guests (you can place them next to each guest’s cutlery even before the wedding feast begins). And then, as soon as the guests reach the desired state (that is, they become cheerful enough without losing the ability to distinguish the numbers on their lottery ticket), start the lottery. The presenter names the lottery ticket (its owner will be able to raise his hand or stand up to reveal his presence) and hands over the prize. To make it more interesting, for each prize you can compose a short poem telling what kind of prize awaits the participant.
For example:
1. You may not need to put on makeup - But here's some lipstick for you!
2. Do you want to refuel? Get chocolate!
3. If you write, Here's a new notebook for you!
4. Will you give me an autograph? I'll give you a pencil!
5. Know about everything in the world: Read the newspaper!
6. All people with a sweet tooth love this chocolate candy!
7. On a summer day you always need Eau de Toilette!
8. Do you want to look cool? Then you'll get a "fenka"!
9. If you like toys, here's a cracker with a trick!
And one of the guests gets a prize in the form of a huge size of family panties, in which he must go out and dance
Sign language...
Quiz.
Host: How many languages do you know? You don’t even realize that you know another language besides this. And this is sign language. You just used this language (shrugged your shoulders, expressed surprise, shook your head). Colombia has even compiled a special dictionary that explains 2,000 gestures. Many gestures came to us from ancient times and have their own history. The thumb raised up or down as a sign of approval or disapproval was known to the ancient Romans: after the end of the fight, the emperor let them know whether he was leaving the gladiators to live or not. There are gestures that have become international and understandable to everyone, but some gestures of one people may be incomprehensible to other people. On our tree of curiosity there are picture gestures. I ask a question and name 3 country options.
1. When we greet each other, we shake hands. This gesture is now clear to everyone. Although in this country, in the old days, when greeting people, they shook hands with themselves. Nowadays, the speaker greets the audience with this gesture.
Countries: Korea, China (+), Ethiopia.
2. If you get to this country and a passerby sticks out his tongue at you, don’t be upset. This will mean - “I am not plotting anything against you. Be calm!” But for other nations this gesture is offensive.
Countries: Egypt, Syria, Tibet (+).
3. If a resident of this country pulls down the lower eyelid with the index finger of his left hand, it will mean “Caution!”
Countries: Italy or Spain (+), Mexico, Australia.
4. Representatives of some peoples of this country pass a pumpkin as a sign of greeting. They hold it in the right hand, and support the right elbow with the left. This is a sign of deep respect.
Countries: Türkiye, Africa (+), Greece.
5. In this country, drawing a snake's tongue with your finger means that "You are a liar!"
Countries: Argentina, India (+), Bulgaria.
6. To express admiration, we clap our hands. And in this country, when they admire something, they will grab your earlobe.
Countries: Brazil (+), Germany, England.
7. And here, greeting each other, they rub noses.
These are: Eskimos, Latin Americans, Laplanans (+).
8. In order to express a sign of admiration, the inhabitants of this country will fold three fingers, press them to their lips and reproduce the sound of a kiss.
Countries: Spain or Mexico (+), Angola, Egypt.
9. In this country, the greeting gesture resembles a salute - the palm is placed on the forehead.
Countries: Denmark, Egypt (+), Vietnam.
10. Well, it's time to say goodbye. Russians wave goodbye from top to bottom. But a Latino would take this as a gesture of invitation. But the inhabitants of these islands, when saying goodbye, raise the palm of a friend to their lips and gently blow on it.
Countries: Hawaiian Islands, Andaman Islands (+), Canary Islands
Actors (Real Actors Competition)
As you know, a real actor must be able to get used to any role, even if he has to play a dinosaur or an alien (this often happens in movies). This is a good opportunity to check how well your guests are getting used to their roles. The presenter invites guests to depict:
- boiling kettle,
- hot iron,
- telephone,
- coffee grinder,
- alarm,
- Cuckoo-clock,
- punctured balloon,
- wormy apple,
- a rug on the floor,
- cactus,
- hanger,
- withered flowers.
The guest who gets into the role faster and better is declared the best actor and receives a prize. However, portraying inanimate objects is quite difficult. The toastmaster can offer another version of this game. For example, ask competition participants to depict:
- an anxious cat,
- angry pig,
- sad penguin,
- an offended rabbit,
- gloomy eagle.
You can offer and depict a sculpture:
- victim of sport,
- goalkeeper who caught the puck with his teeth,
- a weightlifter who did not manage to dodge the barbell in time,
- a parachutist who forgot what to pull,
- a gymnast who did not exit the third pirouette on time,
- a skier who did not have time to escape from an avalanche.
- You don’t have to invent sculptures, but try to depict world-famous architectural and sculptural structures from different countries yourself. For example, competition participants might be asked to depict:
- Egyptian pyramid,
- Statue of Liberty,
- The Leaning Tower of Pisa (perhaps, given the state of the guests who drank to your health, it will be easiest to depict this slowly falling structure),
- The Chinese wall.
And if the guests are not only talented in sculpting, but can also speak captivating speeches for hours without a piece of paper, then the task can be complicated. For example, ask them to create a monument and give a speech on its opening. Monuments may be as follows:
- the leading collector of waste materials in Russia (Plyushkin);
- OSVOD activist (grandfather Mazai);
- the first representative of the Red Cross Society in Africa (Dr. Aibolit);
- the first organizer of sports competitions (Balda);
- a leader in the weaving industry (the Frog Princess).
Where I am?
The game requires four participants. They stand in a row with their backs and a pre-prepared poster with one of the following entries is hung on each of them’s backs:
- sobering-up station
- public bath
- restroom
- public transport the participants themselves do not know what is written on the posters that hang on their backs. Next, the presenter asks questions, addressing each participant in turn. The questions should be as follows.
- Do you often go there?
- When going there, who do you take with you?
- What are you doing there?
- What do you feel after being there?
- Do you want to come there at least once more?
As the game progresses, the guests usually; and they themselves are not averse to asking a couple of tricky questions. Due to the fact that the participant does not know what is being discussed and, of course, answers inappropriately, his answers will certainly turn out to be very funny. The winner is the one with the most interesting and funniest answers (you can decide who gets the prize by voting). At the end of the game, of course, you need to take down the posters and show them to the participants in the game so that they can finally read and, remembering their answers out of place, laugh with others. The inscriptions on the "signs", of course, can be changed. Let's say you can make signs:
- nudist beach,
- cinema,
- "Intimate" store,
- roller coaster,
- stadium,
- tourist center and so on: everything largely depends on the imagination of the one who comes up with these signs

For those who are used to not sitting at the table and chewing sandwiches at a party, we offer cool entertainment “Exposure”. This competition-game will not leave anyone indifferent in the company, and everyone will want to become a participant.
We prepare signs in advance for fun. Each one should have the name of the type written on it:
- Maternity hospital;
- Therapist's office;
- Children's party;
- Drug den;
- Bath;
- Train Station;
- Chief's office;
- Mountains;
- Sea liner;
- Gay club;
- Sports bar;
- Gym;
- Toilet/M/F;
- Cinema.
The signs can be printed on regular A-4 sheets (landscape) or made into appliqués from cut out letters.
The participant chooses one of the signs. Make sure that the inscription is not visible to the contestant himself. The sign with the inscription is fixed on the player’s back. He turns his back to the guest spectators. And the presenter begins to ask the participant in the game tricky questions. Since the player does not see the sign, he gives random answers. Therefore, the entire game is accompanied by laughter from the audience, who know the outcome of the game very well.
For the “interview” you need to prepare tricky and insidious questions that will be suitable for any category:
- Do you often visit this place?
- Who do you usually go there with?
- What are you taking with you?
- What are you doing/what are you doing in this place?
- Do you like going there?
- How old were you when you first came here?
- How long do you plan to repeat such excursions?
- How do you feel after your visit?
- Would you take your parents/children here with you?
- What do you usually take with you?
- What clothes are you wearing?
You can supplement the list of places and questions with your own options, focusing on the age and status of the company. The answers will be the most unpredictable and ridiculous. At the end of the “interview”, to the general laughter of those gathered, the sign is removed from the player’s back. The facial expression at the moment when he sees the name of the place he has visited will be the most unexpected. Therefore, try to capture this moment in a photo. Now invite the next player for an “interview”. The game continues until all the place signs are gone.
At the end of the game, if possible, you can post a photo of the participants. This gallery of unexpected and funny photos is another great way to amuse the company.
Games and competitions for the entertainment of colleagues
Game for adults "Attraction"
Anyone can participate. The players stand in one large circle, looking at the back of each other's heads. Now the presenter gives the task to press together as tightly as possible and make the circle narrower. And now the most difficult part: the guests, at the command of the host, simultaneously bend their legs and try to sit on each other’s knees. As soon as they succeed, the task becomes more complicated: now, at the command of the leader, the players, holding in this position, must extend their arms to the sides. So they all fell! The presenter comments on the situation with the words: “Next time, choose more reliable and stronger friends!”
Competition for adults “Don’t Yawn”
The players are divided into pairs. They are given 2 minutes to look at each other as best as possible and remember all the little details in their appearance. Now the participants turn their backs to each other and the competition begins. It is forbidden to peep and cheat! The facilitator asks each pair in turn the following questions.
1. Remember the name of your partner standing behind you.
2. Remember the color of your partner's eyes.
3. How long are your partner’s trousers (it will be much funnier if the girl is wearing a skirt, but this does not change the wording of the question).
4. Tell me what shoes your partner is wearing.
Further questions get more complicated. You can ask, for example, what the partner is wearing on his neck, on which hand he has a watch, etc. The presenter can ask about the color of lipstick, about rings (on which fingers, what shape, etc.), what hairstyle does he have? partner. In general, the more unexpected and interesting the wording of the questions, the more fun and funny the competition will be.
Competition for adults “Hee-hee yes ha-ha”
Participants of the competition take places in the room so that all other players fall into their field of vision.
The first player starts the competition. Its task is elementary, but no less significant. He needs to calmly, clearly, without emotion, say one word out loud: “Ha.”
The second participant also loudly and clearly pronounces the word twice: “Ha-ha.” The third participant, accordingly, supports the previous ones and continues the noble cause, pronouncing the word three times, and so on, all in turn, adding one more to the number of words already spoken. All this, in accordance with the seriousness of the undertaking, must be pronounced with appropriate pathos, and do not forget about the facial expression!
The game is considered interrupted as soon as one of the participants allows himself, instead of “Ha-ha,” to slide down to the usual “Hee-hee,” or simply laugh!
It is best to conduct the game in a company where people know each other well and where a certain opinion has already been formed about everyone. The game is played as follows. All participants gather together. A presenter is selected. He silently makes a wish for one person present. The task of the rest is to find out who the leader chose. All participants in the game take turns asking the host questions about associations. The presenter thinks for a moment and pronounces his association. Participants in the game listen carefully to the answers and try to put all the associations into a single image, this allows them to guess the intended personality. Whoever is the first to correctly identify the selected person wins and gets the right to become the leader in the next game.
The word “association” refers to the presenter’s impression of a given person, his personal feelings, some image that resembles a hidden person.
An example of questions and answers to associations could be the following dialogue:
What vegetable or fruit is this person associated with?
With ripe tangerine.
What type of shoes is this person associated with?
With hussar boots with spurs.
What color is this person associated with?
With orange.
What type or brand of car is this person associated with?
With a bus.
What animal is this person associated with?
With an elephant.
What kind of music is this person associated with?
With Russian "pop music".
What mood is this person associated with?
Happy.
After such answers, you understand that we are talking about someone perky, with a good-natured character and a broad soul. You look around in bewilderment: “Who could it be?” And then suddenly someone’s voice is heard calling your name. To your surprise, the presenter says, “This is the correct answer!”
Competition for adults “Blind Find”
To participate in the competition, players are divided into pairs - a man and a woman. As equipment, the presenter should have stools in stock for the number of participating pairs. The stools are turned over and placed upside down. The stronger sex is lined up at a distance of 3 m opposite the stools, after which they are blindfolded.
Girls are given 10 matchboxes. The task for the participants is not an easy one: a blindfolded man must reach his partner, take a matchbox from her, walk to a stool and place the box on one of the legs. Then he returns to his partner, takes her the next box, heads to the stool and... The competition continues until a matchbox is placed on all the legs of the stool. It is clear that fallen matchboxes do not count. And the most important condition: “private traders are prohibited from feeling the legs of the stool, the entire task must be performed under the guidance of their partners, who tell them where to go, what position to stand in, how to move your hand, where to aim, how to sit down, etc. And don’t forget to turn on fun music!
Competition for adults “Portrait painter”
Participants are given felt-tip pens and paper and asked to draw a portrait of the neighbor sitting on their left, with a right-hander doing it with his left hand, and a left-hander with his right.
Competition for adults “Writing letters”
Everyone who wants to take part in the game is given a regular A4 sheet of paper and a pen. The presenter asks the players questions, and they write down their answers, fold the sheet and pass it to another player, thereby exchanging sheets with each other. The questions can be the most banal. For example, who worked for whom, when, what, why, where did he do it, how did it all end?
Anything can come out, for example: Petya, tractor driver, yesterday, went to the dance, had nothing to do, on the roof, got lost.
Competition for adults “Exposure”
To conduct the competition, it is necessary to prepare in advance four album sheets with the inscriptions “bathhouse”, “CHILDREN’S MAINTENE”, “MATERNITY HOSPITAL”, “AT A THERAPIST’S APPOINTMENT”, which are attached to the participants’ backs. Those, in turn, should not know their content. The lucky ones turn their backs to the guests and take turns being interviewed by the host.
Questions could be the following (you can come up with your own):
♦ Do you like this place?
♦ How often do you come here?
♦ Are you taking anyone there with you?
♦ Who would you invite to visit this place with you?
♦ What five essential items will you take with you to avoid getting into a sticky situation?
♦ What do you usually do there?
♦ Why did you choose this particular location?
Questions can arise during the game if the process captivates the participants and spectators.
After the audience has had a good laugh, the presenter can remove the signs from the backs of the participants and show them where, in fact, they were “sent”. Now the players themselves will laugh long and merrily!
We offer you a rather interesting and funny competition for corporate events. The participants turn away from the rest of the employees, and the presenter broadcasts signs with inscriptions of certain places on their backs. You can’t spy and give hints, otherwise it won’t be funny. After all, no one wants to ruin the fun. The task is very simple in essence. A person, without seeing what is written on his back, should try to describe how he first came to this place. Options for places may be different, let's look at just a few examples. Participants are required to give funny answers.
The first employee says “Sobering-up station”, the second one says “Work”. Next in order of priority are “Maternity Hospital”, “Mental Hospital” and “Sex-Shop”. The first question is: “How did you first end up there?” Some answers are very what are called “on topic”. The first participant from the sobering-up center responds with words from the Caucasian captive “Barbabia Kirgudu.” You can say that he almost guesses the correct answer. And the lady with “Work”, it turns out, just came in by chance. Apparently she is a very qualified worker, because they hired her right away. It further turns out that the young lady visited the Maternity Hospital for the first time because she came there to work. But the man with the “Mental Hospital” was not very lucky with his parents, because it was his mother who brought him there by the hand. Well, the man from “Sex-Shop” flew there by helicopter - a very original way of transportation.
The next question is: “What attracts you there?” And the first participant mystically again almost guesses that life simply brought him to the Sobering-Up Center. And the lady goes to “Rabota” because everyone dances there, it’s a very interesting group, but some people are lucky. And the young lady from the “Maternity Hospital” is attracted by the fact that she is paid for it. Yes, maternity capital is not issued in every country. And the guy from the “Mental Hospital” was told that he would achieve success there, because everyone has their own career. To which the last contestant replies that a child can be found there. It’s good that he doesn’t see the “Sex-Shop” sign on his back.
This is followed by the question: “How often do you go there?”, “How do your friends and family feel about it?” and “When are you planning to go there next? “The above example illustrates quite well what comical moments can be created when performing this competition.
A very exciting hobby
The presenter asks three guys (men) who have interesting hobbies or activities to take part in the competition. He warns the players that they should not name their hobbies until the end of the competition, as the rest of the guests must try to guess them using questions. Participants are asked to leave the room for a while (ostensibly so that the rest of those present can come up with questions), and the presenter explains to the audience that this is a practical joke and all three players have the same hobby - kissing (for a more relaxed group - sex). Players come back and answer questions based on their hobby.
Question options:
- How old were you when you first took up this hobby?
- Where did you learn your hobby?
- Who taught you this hobby?
- How often do you do this??
- How much free time do you devote to pursuing your hobbies?
- Is there any special training or preparation required to learn this craft? If yes, which one?
- In what room do you practice your hobby?
- How do you prepare for your hobby?
- What is the best time of day to practice this hobby?
- What time do you usually do this?
- What clothes do you usually wear when you are doing your hobby?
- Where do you prefer to do it?
- Who do you like to do this with?
- Could your hobby eventually become a profession?
- Do you pass on your experience to anyone?
- What sounds are present when you practice your hobby?
- How does this make you feel?
Participants answer questions and at first do not understand why the audience is laughing. After all, as a rule, men mean fishing, hunting, driving a car, wood carving, etc.! And only after they answer all the questions prepared by the guests, the players are informed that it was a joke and they were all asked questions, assuming that their hobby was kissing (or sex). Try it, it's a lot of fun!
Answer without words
Number of players: any.
The presenter sits in the center and begins to ask questions to the players, turning first to one and then to the other. For example:
- What do you like to do in the evenings?
- What is your favourite dish?
- What's your favorite animal?
- What do you do (who do you study for)?
- How did you sleep last night?
- What genre of cinema do you prefer?
- Why do you love holidays?
- What do you do when you're away?
- What is your hobby? etc.
The players’ task is to respond without words, only with gestures, signs and facial expressions. Anyone who cannot resist saying a word pays a forfeit or is eliminated from the game. During the “answer” of one of the participants, everyone else can guess what exactly he is depicting. The presenter should not delay with questions and (most importantly!) ask questions that can be answered simply “yes” or “no”.
Favorite establishment, or Everything secret becomes clear
A fun prank game. Several volunteers are invited. They are seated with their backs to everyone, and signs with pre-prepared inscriptions are attached to their backs. The inscriptions can be very different: “Brothelage”, “Bowling”, “Sobering-up center”, “Bathhouse”, “Car showroom”, “Women’s clinic”, “Library”, “Nightclub”, “Toilet”, “Beauty salon”, “Policlinic”, “Police”, “Lingerie store”, “Atelier”, “Maternity hospital”, “Museum”, “Library”, “Sex shop”, “Sauna”, etc. Those present ask the players, one by one, various questions: “Why do you go there, how often, what attracts you to this place, etc.” Players must answer these questions without knowing what is written on the sign. You need to answer quickly, without hesitation. Originality and sense of humor are encouraged.
Question options:
- Do you visit this place often?
- Why do you go there?
- Do you go there with your family, with friends or alone?
- Is admission to this establishment free, paid or by invitation?
- Is each visit to this establishment expensive for you?
- What attracts you to this place?
- What do you take with you when you go there?
- Do you meet many friends there?
- How often do you plan to go there in the future?
- Do your loved ones object to visiting this establishment?
- What's there? etc.
The discrepancy between the answers and the inscriptions on the signs causes a lot of laughter. Simple and fun entertainment that will bring pleasure to both participants and others present!
Where I am?
(a reversal of the previous game)
The player is seated with his back to everyone, and a sign with a pre-prepared inscription is attached to his back. The inscriptions can be very different: “Brothelage”, “Bowling”, “Sobering-up center”, “Bathhouse”, “Car showroom”, “Women’s clinic”, “Library”, “Nightclub”, “Toilet”, “Beauty salon”, “Policlinic”, “Police”, “Lingerie store”, “Atelier”, “Maternity hospital”, “Museum”, “Library”, “Sex shop”, “Sauna”, etc. Within a certain time, the player must guess where he “is.” To do this, he asks those present various questions: “Is this a paid establishment? Is this place open at night? Do I go there with friends? and so on.". Condition: questions must be such that they can only be answered with “yes”, “no” or “doesn’t matter”.
A spicy situation, or women's revelations
The participants are seated with their backs to everyone, and pre-prepared signs are attached to their backs (or to the backs of chairs), on which various piquant situations are written. The inscriptions can be the following: “Broken heel”, “Black eye”, “Torn tights”, “Messy hairstyle”, “No underwear”, “Hangover”, etc. Participants must, without knowing what is written on the sign, answer questions from those present. You need to answer quickly, without hesitation. Originality and sense of humor are encouraged.
Question options:
- How often do you find yourself in this situation?
- What do you especially like about your look?
- How do your friends react to what happened to you?
- How did you end up in this situation? etc.
Comic fortune telling from a book
Any book is suitable for this entertainment - to your taste (fairy tale, romance novel, etc.). The “fortuneteller” picks up a book and turns to it with a question that interests him, for example: “Dear book... (names the author and the title of the book), please answer 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 required line in the book at the specified coordinates, reads it out - this is the answer to his question.
Damaged photocopier
This is a modification of the famous “broken phone” game. Players are divided into teams (preferably at least 4 people in each) and stand one after another. Players standing in front are given blank pieces of paper and pencils (pens). Then the presenter approaches the last players in the ranks one by one 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 was drawn for him, and then tries to depict the same picture on the back of the next one. 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 being most similar to the original wins.
