Game: Four People on a Couch - Short Lesson
By:sam

This is a game for two teams of four (any two equal teams will do, but four seems traditional) and it is best played in a lounge, since you'll have a couch there. The aim of the game is to get all four team members sat on the couch. As well as this there should be five other seats, so that a vague circle is formed and eight bits of paper, with the players' names written on them. The teams sit alternately, leaving one empty seat. Then the pieces of paper are passed out; one each.

Now the game begins. The player to the left of the empty seat calls out a name. Whoever has that name moves to the empty seat and swaps name with the player who called the name. This is then repeated. The trick to winning is obviously to try to get your team on the couch and the other team off and pass the play to someone else on your team - not easy when trying to keep track of whose name is whose.
