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!
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!
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!

Halloween just got spooky competitive! Beat the Screen – Halloween Edition is a fast-paced twist on Rock, Paper, Scissors where everyone plays against the screen at once. Students will choose to act like a vampire, werewolf, or zombie — but only one will survive each round. It’s quick, it’s chaotic, and it will have your whole group howling with laughter!
How to Play
Have everyone stand up and face the screen. When the countdown ends, students must strike one of three poses: Vampire (arms up like a cape), Werewolf (hands as claws), or Zombie (arms out like a zombie). Then reveal the screen’s choice. Vampire beats Werewolf, Werewolf beats Zombie, and Zombie beats Vampire. Anyone who loses to the screen’s choice sits down — winners stay standing and play again. Keep going until only one player remains — they are the Halloween champion!
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.
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.

Generic Halloween Costume is the game where every costume on screen is one lawyer away from a lawsuit. Halloween stores can't sell characters they don't own, so they slap a vague name on the bag and hope nobody notices. "Absorbent Yellow Sea Dweller." "Pinstriped Freelance Bio-Exorcist." "Sparkling Vegetarian Vampire." Your students have to figure out who each one is actually ripping off. Some land instantly and the room erupts. Others sit there while ten kids yell Dracula at a guy covered in glitter. The fun is watching a group get completely stuck on something obvious, then watching one kid who has seen way too many movies clean up three rounds in a row. Ten rounds, no props, nothing to print. Just put it on the screen and let them argue about whether a sponge counts as a sea dweller.
The Lesser of Two Cringes: Back to School Edition is the impossible-choice game that captures everything embarrassing about a new school year — and makes you pick your poison. Each round, two painfully awkward school scenarios hit the screen: call your teacher "Mom" in front of everyone, or trip carrying a full lunch tray across the cafeteria? There are no good options here — only survivable ones. Players have to commit to the situation they'd rather live through, defend their choice, and watch the room split over which nightmare is worse. It's hilarious, it's relatable, and it'll have everyone reliving their most embarrassing school moments — may the least-cringe choice win!
Tick Tock is a suspense-filled stage game that turns a simple countdown into a battle of internal timing. A few blindfolded contestants take the stage, each one told exactly how long their clock will run. When the timer starts, they count the seconds in their heads and try to stand up the moment they believe time is almost gone, without letting it hit zero first. As the seconds tick away, confidence gets tested and the tension builds with every passing moment. It's simple, nerve-wracking to watch, and full of surprising moments.
Hum That Tune is a chaotic, crowd-powered game that turns the whole room into one big off-key choir. A popular song appears on the screen, but only the crowd can see it, and their job is to hum that tune as loud as they possibly can. Up front, a few contestants are left guessing, straining to recognize the song through a wall of enthusiastic humming. As the rounds go on, the tunes get trickier and the room gets louder. It's simple, hilarious, and full of surprising moments that work for groups of any size.
Fortune or Proverbs is a quick-thinking elimination game that puts students' spiritual instincts to the test. A single line of wisdom appears on screen, and players have to decide where it came from: a fortune cookie or the book of Proverbs. Some lines are obvious, but plenty of them blur the line just enough to make everyone second-guess. As the rounds go on, confidence gets tested, the room slowly shrinks, and only the correct guesses stay standing. It's simple, engaging, and full of surprising moments that spark great conversation about real wisdom.
Bite or Flight is a fast-moving elimination game that tests how well students really know the animal kingdom. Each round shows an animal on the screen along with something it might eat, and players have to make the call: would this animal actually take a bite, or not? They commit by running left for "Bite" or right for "Flight," locking in their answer before the truth is revealed. Some pairings are obvious and others are wonderfully deceiving, so as the rounds go on, confidence gets tested and the room quickly shrinks. It's simple, engaging, and full of surprising moments.
AI Glitch is a fast-thinking trivia game built around one simple truth: artificial intelligence sounds confident even when it's completely wrong. Each round puts an AI-generated description of a famous movie up on the screen, and it's mostly accurate except for one sneaky mistake buried somewhere inside. Students have to read fast, trust their movie knowledge, and be the first to call out exactly what the AI got wrong. As the rounds go on, the glitches get trickier and confidence gets tested. It's simple, engaging, and full of surprising moments that reward quick eyes and sharp memories.
