Setup

Count the number of total players. Then prepare that many sticky notes. For example, if there are 8 players, prepare 8 sticky notes. If you don’t have any sticky notes, you can use any paper and tape. Write down a different famous person on each bit of paper, for example, ‘The Queen’, ‘Superman’, ‘Brad Pitt’. As long as everybody would know who they are. One by one, stick those names on each player's forehead or on their backs. As long as they can’t see it.

How to Play

Once everybody has a sticky note on them, they are free to walk around and ask anybody yes or no questions about who they are. For example “Am I a man?” or “Am I a fictional character?”. The other person can only answer yes or no. Keep playing until everybody has correctly guessed who they are. Tip: Alternatively you can make it competitive by letting players take turns asking questions and the first player to correctly guess wins the game.
