The Mimic Club

Source: Games For All Occasions
Category: GAMES FOR ADULTS





This is a game which causes much amusement to a company of children, and
even grown-ups may join in.

All the players, with the exception of two, leave the room. One of the
outside party is then called in, and told that a new club has been
formed and his name enrolled, but that he cannot be formally admitted
unless he can guess the name of the club from the movements of the two
members who have remained in the room.

The candidate for admission is then offered a chair, and everything said
and every movement made is mimicked by the other two.

Sometimes the new member guesses at once, but when unable to do this it
is very funny to watch the effect that the copying of his every movement
has upon him, especially when six or seven have been admitted.

When the name of the club has been guessed another candidate is invited
in and the same performance takes place.
