G.32. Murder

Cut out pieces of paper equal to the number of people in the group. If there are more than ten, break into several groups and sit on the floor in circles, explaining the rules of the game.
On one piece of paper in each group, place an X (murderer). Fold all the papers. Each person picks one piece, without letting on if they received the X.
The person getting the X is the "murderer" and begins killing off people by winking at them. The object is for the "murderer" to eliminate as many people as possible without being identified.
A person who is “murdered” must wait a few seconds and then fall over “dead.” S/he is then out of the game.

If someone who is “alive” thinks s/he knows the murderer, s/he can “accuse,” but only if s/he has actually seen the murderer winking at someone. A false accusation eliminates the accuser.
