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. Teams work together to solve the puzzle, then send one player racing to the front with their guess. The first player to answer correctly earns a point for their team. 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.

Autumn’s heating up in Quickfire – Fall Edition! This fast-paced circle game puts your reflexes and memory to the test as you race to keep the answers flowing. With fall-themed prompts, it’s all about thinking on your feet before the leaves—and players—start dropping.

How to Play

Players take turns around the circle answering the prompt. If you stall, repeat an answer, or slip up with the wrong word or sound, you’re out. The game keeps moving like falling leaves until only one sharp player remains standing as the winner.

Bring the fall vibes and the fun! Crowd Cues: Fall Edition turns your whole room into a living autumn scene. The crowd acts out fall-themed prompts — think pumpkin carving, hayrides, and jumping in leaf piles — while one lucky contestant stands on stage and tries to guess what’s happening. 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 crowd acts it out (no talking!) while their teammate tries to guess. The first contestant to guess correctly wins the round and earns a point for their team. The team with the most points after all rounds wins!

Pack your bags and get ready to spot the ultimate getaway! In Match Four – Vacation Destination, your students will race against the clock to find the one iconic landmark that appears more than all the others. Each round is filled with sunny sights, famous cities, and tropical treats—but only one shows up four times. It’s a fast-paced, visual challenge that’ll have everyone on their toes and dreaming of their next vacation! 

How to Play: 
Each round, a screen full of vacation landmark icons appears—think Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty, Big Ben, and more. All but one of the landmarks show up three times, but one sneaky icon appears four times. Players have ten seconds to decide which icon appears four times and move to the corner of the room that corresponds to their choice. If you pick the correct corner, you stay in! Get it wrong, and you're out. Keep going until one player is left standing!

It’s the most paws-itively ridiculous music game you’ve ever played! In Bark-A-Long!, contestants must rely on their team’s best dog impressions to guess the tune. No singing. No humming. Just barking. It’s loud, it’s hilarious, and it’s a howling good time! 

How to Play:

Bring a few contestants on stage and split the crowd into teams—one for each contestant. Show a popular song title on screen (only visible to the crowd). The crowd must bark out the tune while their contestant tries to guess. First correct answer scores a point for their team. Most points at the end wins!
