11 divertidos xogos de Zoom para xogar: recupera os vellos recordos nunha videochamada de grupo.

Este illamento social está pasando factura á xente. O traballo pode desanimarte, especialmente porque está a suceder no teu propio ambiente doméstico e non tes a onde ir. É por iso que elaboramos unha lista de xogos aos que podes xogar cos teus compañeiros nunha reunión de Zoom .

Zoom non ten compatibilidade nativa para xogos de terceiros como Houseparty e Bunch , pero a maioría destes xogos só requiren unha aplicación e o teu sentido do humor. Entón, leva aos teus amigos nunha videochamada grupal a través dunha reunión de Zoom e inicia o xogo.

Zoom limitará as chamadas a 40 minutos coa versión gratuíta, pero se nos coñeces, saberías que sabemos como romper e evitar o límite .

Number of players: No limit

Set up:

Step 1: Launch your Zoom meeting and invite your friends.

Step 2: Use a random word generator to select a word to draw.

Step 3: Once all the players have joined, use Zoom’s Share screen option located at the bottom of the screen and select Whiteboard to bring up a drawing space. (Note: only one user at a time can share their screen, so this would be a good time to decide who the ‘denner’ is.)

Step 4: You can either use the inbuilt stopwatch feature on your computer or designate a player to keep time on their phone.

Rules:

• Select a player to start off the game. Only the person drawing will share their screen.
• Set a time limit; it could be 30 seconds, 1 minute, whatever everyone decides on.
• Once the timer starts, the player has to draw the randomly selected word as accurately as they can on the whiteboard so that the others can guess what it is.
• Alternatively, players can break off into groups. One team selects a word that the other team’s denner has to draw. If the denners team guesses the word within the time limit they get a point!

Heads up!

This game involves a lot of shouting over each other in an attempt to make the person guess what’s on their head. The more players the more chaos!

Number of players: No limit

Set up:

Step 1: Have the players download the Heads up! game on their phones.

Step 2: Once all the players have joined your Zoom meeting, decide who is going to start off the game.

Rules:

• The aim of the game is to try and make the ‘denner’ guess the word displayed on their forehead.
• The denner starts the game and holds up the phone to their forehead, screen facing out. The rest of the participants shout out clues to help them guess the word before the timer runs out.
• Depending on how many words the denner guesses, they get corresponding points.
• The winner of the round is the person who guessed the most number of words.

Password

You get one shot per round to explain to your teammate what the password is. And the catch? You can only use one word!

Number of players: No limit (even number of players)

Set up:

Step 1: Launch your Zoom meeting and invite your friends.

Step 2: Have all players partner up to form teams of 2. Each group has a player A and player B.

Step 3: All player A’s (only) form a text chain.

Rules:

• Use a random word generator to pick a password. The password is posted on the Player A’s text chain.
• All the player B’s in the teams have to guess the password, and all the player A’s have to give their teammate a clue using only one word.
• Decide the order in which the teams will play.

Example:

Let’s assume the password is ‘shrimp’. To start a game, Team 1’s player A says to their partner (Team 1 player B), let’s say: “shellfish”. Team 1’s player B guesses: “crab”?. Now we know that that’s a wrong answer (the correct answer is shrimp, remember?). So, now it’s the turn of  another team, let’s say Team 2.

Now, Team 2 player A says to their partner (Team 2 player B): “sushi”. Player B of the Team 2, let’s suppose, answers: “tuna”? . Again, wrong. And on it goes till a teammate guesses the right password.

• Once everyone has spoken, the judge takes a vote on who the group thinks the Killer actually is. The person with the most votes gets eliminated, and the next round begins.
• Once the Killer gets eliminated, the judge stops the game. The Killer scores points depending on how many people they had eliminated.
