Count to 20

The group sits in a circle, or better, scattered with eyes closed. The mission: count to twenty out loud as a group, one number per voice, with no order agreed in advance. Anyone may say the next number at any moment — but if two people speak at the same time, the count restarts at one. No pointing, no signalling, no pattern-setting. Early attempts collapse at four; the room slowly learns to listen, wait, and sense each other. The silence between numbers is the actual game.

Axe Throwing

Players take turns throwing a hatchet at a wooden target, scoring points for how close to the bull's-eye it sticks. Run it in rounds — three throws per turn — and total the scores, individually or as teams. This one is adults (or older teens with instruction) only, and safety is non-negotiable: a proper target with a clear backstop, one thrower at a time, everyone else well behind a marked line, and a sober, briefed group. A commercial axe-throwing venue handles all of this for you and makes a great team outing.
