Party Games - Uncles House

This is a party game for 2 or more players, but best with 3 to 6.

There is a party going on at Uncle's house. To attend the party, a person must bring a certain type of object. Whether or not this object is acceptable depends on a specific rule.

For each round of the game, one player is elected to make up the rule, known as the Host, for what objects are acceptable and unacceptable for admission to the party. This rule must remain constant throughout the round, but its effects may change depending on the situation.

Once the Host player decides on a rule for the round, play begins. Players, in turn, say "I'm going to uncle's house, and I'm bringing a .............." After saying this, the Host replies with either "You can go" or "Sorry, you can't go to the party".

When it is the Host's turn, he gives an example of something that can or cannot be brought as well.

When a player thinks he has figured out what the rule is, he/she should continue to tell what he would bring to Uncle's house. It is important that players who think they know the rule, should not blurt out before everyone else has figured it out, as that would mess up the game for the other players. When all the players have figured out the rule, the round ends, and someone else becomes the Host and gets to make up a new rule for another round.

Here are some Rule ideas to get you started:

• You may only bring something coloured .............

• You may only bring something that starts with ...............

• You may only bring something that is found at ...............
