ALPHABETICAL ANSWERS.

Category: GAMES FOR ADULTS





Prepare cards with one letter of the alphabet on each, omitting V, X,
Z. Of course if the company is large, several will have the same
letter.

The cards are pinned on the guests, and it is announced that no one
must answer any question presented to him except by a sentence
commencing with the letter on his card, the answer being given before
the questioner could count ten.

No two players can question a person at the same time, and no one can
give the same answer twice.

If a player begins his reply with a wrong letter or does not answer in
time, his letter is taken from him by his questioner, who adds it to
his and he then has the privilege of answering with either of his
letters. The player who is without a card is supplied with one again
but after the third trial he is out of the game.
