WHAT AM I?

Source: Games for Everybody
Category: GAMES FOR ADULTS





One of the players is sent out of the room. The rest decide upon the
name of some animal which he is to guess.

When he returns the players question him in turn, imitating the habits
of the animal chosen and asking questions as if he were that animal.

For instance, the animal chosen is tiger. The questions may be, "Do
you scratch?" "Are your claws sharp?" "Do you howl at night?"
etc. The player thinking they have named him a cat answers, "Yes," and
says, "Am I a cat?" When answered in the negative, the players still
question him until he finally guesses tiger. The player whose question
betrayed the name of the chosen animal then takes his place and the
game continues as before.
