This is perfect for those moments when it looks like the pumpkin is about to fall into a box. Just hit the button and everything runs in slow motion! It's a ton of fun!

Welcome to Scarblem – Fall Edition! In this fast-paced word scramble game, letters float across the screen in a swirling autumn mix. Work with your team to piece them together and uncover the hidden fall-themed word before anyone else can.
How to Play
Split your group into equal teams and have everyone start at the back of the room. Each round, scrambled letters will appear on the screen.

Play through the rounds to see who wins the Scarblem crown!
Gear up for Stat Boost Showdown – Fall Edition! Each round, two enchanted fall-themed items face off—like a football that always spirals perfectly or one that never gets dropped. The big question: which magical boost is better? Only one way to find out…
How to Play
A contestant secretly picks their favorite enchanted item. Then the two options appear on screen and the crowd chooses by moving to the side of the room that matches their pick. If your choice matches the contestant’s, you stay in. If not—you’re out! Play until the last few remain to see who survives the showdown.

It’s energetic, hilarious, and full of fall flavor!
How to Play
Split your crowd into two teams. Each round, send one contestant from each team to the stage and reveal a fall-themed prompt to the audience.

The team with the most points after all rounds wins!
It’s fall, it’s wild, and it’s time to squad up! Squads – Fall Edition is the ultimate autumn showdown where students have to think fast, move faster, and act their hearts out. Each round, the screen shows three different fall-themed activities like “3 jumping in leaves,” “2 trick-or-treating,” or “4 sitting by the campfire.” Students must quickly form a group with the correct number of people and act out the chosen activity. But here’s the twist—only one of those combos will be eliminated each round. If your group picked the eliminated one… you’re out! Whether you’re pretending to roast marshmallows or diving into invisible leaf piles, this game is full of laughs, energy, and fall vibes.
How to Play:
Split everyone into one big group. When a round begins, show the screen with three different activities and group sizes. Students must quickly form a group of the exact number listed and act out one of the options. After about 10 seconds, reveal which group/activity is eliminated. Any student who chose that combo is out! Keep playing until only a few remain—and crown the last ones standing as the fall squad champions!
