Description

For this game, you need to prepare stickers with ready-made inscriptions in advance. They can be varied: fictional or existing characters, plants, animals, various objects, and so on.

The first participant is selected and a sticker with a prepared inscription is placed on his forehead. The main thing is to do this carefully so that the player does not know what is written there, he must guess it.

When everyone present sees what is written on the sticker, you can start playing. The player, in order to guess who he is, asks questions, and everyone else answers them.

For example:

I'm alive?
Do I walk on four legs?
I live on the street?
Am I a fairy tale character?

What characters can there be?

Make riddles about public people, heroes of famous and popular films, and fairy tales. Otherwise, the player runs the risk of not guessing what was planned for a simple reason: ignorance.

The game “Guess who you are” continues until the participant guesses who he is. He must say “I (the hidden word).” Then the next participant is given a different sticker. An option is allowed when the player accurately guessed the hidden character (described a movie, phrases, clothing, sport), but does not know the name, the game is considered won.

Rules

Krokodil's rules may change even from company to company. We'll look at the ones that come with the card set. The rules of the game “Crocodile” are different for playing individually and in teams.

Every man for himself

When everyone plays for themselves, the first participant draws a card, chooses one word on it and explains it through pantomime to the others. The guesser takes his place and draws a new card.

Attention: cards do not go to waste - you need to keep your card with you and not show it to anyone. When your turn returns, you do not draw a new card, but make another word with the old one. The first one to show all the words on his card wins.

Team game

It’s more fun to play in teams: the board game goes faster, “Crocodile” is solved more intensively, and team spirit is demonstrated. It is worth breaking up into groups if there are more than six of you.

The participant must depict a concept or phrase without words for members of his own team, and compose such a speech that his teammates will certainly give the correct answer. All team members go onto the “stage” in turn and each time draw a new card and choose a category from which to make a wish.

It is during team play that points are usually counted and U-cards are used. Teams take turns, one move – one minute. During this time, you can guess and guess several words and get points for each. Words from one category are guessed one at a time, without skipping.

Points are recorded in the standings. Game duration is 12 rounds. The team that scores the most points wins.

Cards

There are two types of cards for the game “Crocodile”: cards with tasks

and
U-cards.
Why do we need ready-made cards for the game if for decades the words were simply made up on the fly? The words were arranged according to difficulty, according to categories and, accordingly, according to the points they bring. This is important for game balance.

Each of the two hundred cards contains ten words and phrases, divided into five categories:

Objects – everything that can be touched. Three words worth two points each.
Actions are all verbs. Three words for two points.
Concepts are abstract quantities, ideas, states. One word for five points.
Names – famous personalities, names, brands. Two words for three points.
Expressions - proverbs, sayings, quotes. One word for five points.
U-cards

Special cards contain additional conditions that must be met. They can make the task easier or, on the contrary, more difficult. And bring extra points. It is your right to play with or without these cards. Each team starts with the same set of U-cards and can use one card per turn, strictly before the start of the explanation. But don’t rush to use them - for each U-card that is saved, the team gets a point at the end.

What can be found on U-cards:

First letter – as a hint, the explainer names the first letter of the word.
An extra minute - plus a minute to understand what exactly the teammate waving his arms is trying to say.
Player Substitution - This can be played against opponents to remove their main mime artist from the stage.
With your eyes closed, you will have to explain it blindly.
Hands in a lock - we clasp our hands and show with our legs, face and body.
With his back turned, the player turns away and tries to demonstrate that his acting talents extend to the rear.
Robbery is carte blanche to guess the words of someone else's team.
Bet - you can bet 10 points that the word will not be guessed.
Make a word - make your own word for the enemy player and watch how he gets out of it.

By showing the word you can

Move your arms, legs, body, eyebrows, ears and remaining parts of the body as you please, take any pose.
Answer questions – but only with gestures.
Draw with your finger on the wall or air. Quick schematic drawing techniques will be very useful to you.
Point to anything you were wearing, in your pocket, or in your hands when you started explaining.
Show not the entire phrase, but the words separately. For example, when you need to think of proverbs, sayings, aphorisms.
Showing the word you can't
Make any sounds. Even moo, growl and groan.
Write the word in the air and use deaf-mute language if those present are familiar with it.
“Pronounce” the word with articulation so that it can be read on the lips.
Point to the hidden object and any object that is not on you.
Draw, leaving a mark; pen on paper, finger in the sand, if you’re outside, it doesn’t matter.
Show words in parts or by syllables or letters.

Special Gestures

With the help of various body movements, you can show not only the words being asked, but also hints that are allowed to be demonstrated with certain gestures. They sometimes help a lot in completing this quest, and if the tasks and explanations themselves are funny, cool and amusing, then the hint gestures are more often universal, some are used in tournaments, some in amateur games. There are about two dozen of them. For example:

Hands crosswise in front of you - forget everything that was “said” before, the explanation begins anew. It can come in handy when those guessing have gone “into the wrong steppe” or the guesser has had a brilliant idea on how to quickly and simply explain everything to others.
Hitting your palm with your palm or making a circular motion with your hand at the elbow is already close, look for synonyms.
A large circle is outlined with your hands - look for a broader concept, less specific.
Circular movements with the index finger are a word with the same root.
Several raised fingers - the number of the word in the hidden phrase.
Right hand to the right and back, as if you are shifting the reverse gear in a car - you need to go back in your reasoning.
The index finger touches the forehead - you need to remember what you just said.
The index finger touches the forehead and immediately returns - remember what was stored in memory.
Cross movement of the index fingers in the vertical plane - select an association.
The same gesture, but followed by touching your ear with your finger - look for a consonant or rhyming word.

Interesting words for "Crocodile"

An interesting game requires interesting words that are not so easy to show. But you shouldn’t go too far – the words should correspond to the general level of erudition of the company.

Easy words for children

The crocodile game can be started in childhood by thinking of very simple words for an easy start. For example, “iron” or “dog” - they are easy to show even for a three-year-old child. It is better to choose objects that can be seen in the room or in the picture, or simple actions.

Difficult words

The most difficult concepts to demonstrate are abstract concepts, with the exception of basic emotions. For children's "Crocodile" it is better to avoid them, but experienced players will get a lot of impressions when trying to show "freedom" or "competence" with gestures.

Funny words and phrases

When the game reaches the stage of general fun, it’s time to think of phrases like “fantasizing chicken” or “camel running on a rainbow.” However, quotes from books and films also go great: “And we’ll go north!”, “Gulchatay, open your face!”

Peculiarities

The board game Friday has been known to most people since childhood. It became popular after the release of the film “Inglourious Basterds” in 2009, in which the characters played a simple game with pieces of paper on their foreheads.

This kind of entertainment seemed interesting to many who did not know it before: it is exciting, fun and trains the brain. After that, everyone began to come up with ways to play this at home: they used stickers, patches, and paper with tape. I wanted to guess who you are in the game, but the answer on my forehead was tempting me to “accidentally” look in the mirror.

The game became popular after the release of the movie “Inglourious Basterds”

At first, the description may seem too simple: it’s easy to guess what animal or object is on the players’ foreheads.

In reality, everything turns out to be not so easy. If you ask the wrong questions, you can drown in guesswork and never get to the truth. For example, can you guess the animal, knowing that it comes in different colors, eats grass and is larger than a mouse?

There will be too many options. Therefore, each question should take you one step closer to the answer, eliminating all wrong guesses.

You need to guess who you are, and the answer is on your forehead

TV Channel Friday! immediately caught the trend and released a board game with pieces of paper and a headband to keep them on the forehead.

The set instantly caused a stir and even won a prize at the “Media Brand” competition in two thousand and fifteen as the best off-screen advertising campaign.

Review

The game "Crocodile" is also known as "Associations", "Mime", "Blue Cow" or "American Student". The goal and objectives are to think of words and explain them to other players using gestures. Usually this is not fun, but it is very fun when the word or phrase is non-trivial or the conditions on the card limit the ways of transmitting information.

Why is it called that and where is the logic here? There are different versions of where the name came from. The main and most plausible one is theatrical. In theater universities there was an exercise for young actors - to show a phrase without words. And so that the task did not seem easy, they asked strange phrases. Including the “red crocodile”. Which was later shortened to simply "crocodile". And the entertainment went to the people.

The desktop version of the game appeared relatively recently as a project and “Mosigra”. The game received a material basis - cards with tasks and additional conditions imposed on the explainer.

On average, the game lasts from forty minutes to one and a half hours

, despite the fact that the time to guess each word is limited. The basic set is designed for players over 10 years old. The optimal number of participants is from 4 to 12 people.

The basic set is packaged in a cube box with a side of eleven centimeters. In addition to it, the game “Crocodile Big Party” and travel sets were also released: “Crocodile of all sorts”, “Crocodile of children’s lungs”, “Crocodile Cinema-Book”, “Crocodile Historically Interesting” and “Crocodile Around the World”.

Psychology

The popularity of games such as Crocodile is largely due to our psychology. Even in kindergarten, we often played in groups, with friends, tried to copy someone and invent non-existent events. Even then, such games helped us develop thinking, improve speech, and improve memory.

If you think back, we often became teachers, doctors, firefighters and accountants. In addition to these role-playing games, we played “Broken Phone”, “Ring”, “Words”. We grew up, but our love for games remained. Of course, playing “Broken Phone” is already less interesting.

Similar entertainments were replaced by: “Mafia”, “Earthquake”, “Castwrecked”. But these games often require a leader. He must monitor the entire process, compliance with the rules, and the movements of the players. At any moment, the host intervenes in the gameplay and prevents conflicts.

But it is not always possible to find a person to play the role of presenter. Perhaps there are not enough people in the company for one person to become a guardian. Therefore, we have to choose games in which such a person is not needed. And, if you know how to play the Crocodile game, then you understand that there is no leader there.

"Crocodile" also refers to psychological games. But this is the most harmless option. Of course, there are group therapies in which the trainer presents such a game as an identification of the participants' problems.

But if we talk about rather it helps to have fun and bring everyone involved together.

This is a pantomime game. The winner is easily the one who knows how to control his body and facial expressions, and also pays close attention to details. Many people underestimate this game. She helps adults express emotions and feelings through gestures. Therefore, “Crocodile” can be played not only by children and teenagers, but also by mature people.

Say the same word

This is a fun game for two, but you can involve more participants. There is no need to pre-determine the topic here. On the count of 1-2-3, participants name the word. For example, one said “water”, the other said “table”.
The goal of the game: through successive associations, name the same word associated with the previous two words. For example, on the next 1-2-3, the first player calls the word “jug” (the jug can stand on the table and be filled with water), the second player calls “log” (he imagined that the table is floating on water).
And so on, now we come up with associations for a jug with a log.
The game can lead to unexpected turns, try it. Do not limit your imagination
only to objects, choose properties, professions, colors.

Beginners

Some people immediately understand how to play Crocodile, but for others this game is very difficult. For beginners, you can use basic words. You can start with the simplest associations. For example, if you see a glass on the table, try to show it.

Then you can use abstractions. For example, show your friends the word set. If a company plays the same computer game, you can show characters or artifacts from it. This is also always very fun and funny.

If an experienced team has gathered, you can take not only words and phrases, but also entire sentences. For example, words from songs or films.

For what occasion is it suitable?

The game with signs on the forehead was created specifically for fun companies and is suitable for fun leisure time with friends, parents or children.
You can make the game yourself, and simply print out the cards. People from 10 years old can participate in it, so even a holiday with a family, where adult parents and small children gather, will be interesting for all its participants. A party or birthday celebration will be perfect if the forehead sticker game is used.

This type of entertainment will appeal to creative individuals and those whose job it is to come up with something: organizers, screenwriters, art directors and similar professions.

This set will be in demand in antique cafes.

Bright design and interesting content make the game a good gift for a person who loves active and entertaining leisure time. If you're looking for a fun pastime that will exercise your mind, look no further than the flashcards board game.

It helps you solve problems based on small data and teaches you to analyze, because you need to quickly discard the unnecessary and remember those that may turn out to be the correct answer.

For little ones

Many parents believe that playing Swampy the Crocodile is the same as playing a classic association puzzle. It's not like that at all. For young children, the classic “Crocodile” will be very difficult. This is due to the fact that they do not have such a large vocabulary. Of course, you can play this game with them, but it is important to choose very simple words that they know and that they encounter every day.

But playing the game “Crocodile Swampy” is a lot of fun. This is a small browser game that already has several versions. She tells a story about a cute crocodile Swampy, who loves to swim. But he doesn’t always succeed in this. The fact is that Swampy is the only crocodile in the sewer who loves cleanliness. The rest of his relatives can only misbehave and cause harm. Therefore, you will need to help the green tidy take a swim.

How to organize

To arrange a game of Guess Who I am at home, cards with words and pictures can be made with your own hands and for free. You will need pieces of paper that can be used as forehead stickers. Stickers are most often used for this purpose, but you can also take a regular white medical plaster, but peeling it off will be much more unpleasant.

Next, players must come up with words for the game and write what they wished for on the cards. If you have a printer, ready-made cards (and even with pictures) can be downloaded and printed. Next, the answer is attached to the forehead so that all participants can see it clearly. Be careful when choosing words, because the player who guesses must know this item exactly.

You can wish for ordinary things, such as: an electric guitar, a light bulb, a saucepan and other household items.
