How to play
- All participants hold up 5 or 10 fingers.
- The youngest person on the call goes first, and shares one true statement about themselves. For example, “I have a pen pal.”
- Anyone that the statement is true for - gets to keep their fingers up, while anyone that the statement is not true for - puts one finger down.
- If all of a player’s fingers are down, they are out of the game.
- Play until only one player remains.
The strategy in this game is to share facts about yourself that are unique enough that other players will not be able to say it is true for them and will have to put fingers down.
Winner
The last player remaining is the winner
