How to play
The Chameleon Game is a social deduction game where players must figure out who the "chameleon" is based on their answers to a series of questions. Players sit in a circle or around a table. Each player is given a card that contains a list of related words or prompts, except for the chameleon, who receives a card with no information other than the word "chameleon." The game consists of several rounds. In each round, one player is selected to be the moderator, who poses a question or gives a prompt related to the words or themes listed on the players' cards. Each player, including the chameleon, takes turns giving a response to the question or prompt. The chameleon's challenge is to blend in with the other players' responses without revealing their lack of knowledge about the secret word or theme. After all players have given their responses, players discuss among themselves and vote on who they believe the chameleon is. If the majority of players correctly identify the chameleon, they win the round. If the chameleon successfully avoids detection, they win the round instead.

Rock Paper Dragon
First, everyone finds someone and plays basic "Rock-Paper-Scissors" with them. Then the loser attaches themselves onto the winners by grabbing their shoulders like a "train". We are going to call that pair "team A". "Team A" then finds another team or pair (Team B) to verse. If "team A" beats "Team B" then "Team B" has to attach to the back of team A's train. That group verses another group and so on eventually every group in the room is attached in one big dragon and they make a loop around the room. It is not really as confusing as it sounds. A prize can be awarded to the person at the front of the dragon.

End of the World
End of the World, Make a large circle with the rope on the floor, have the group stand in the center of the circle. Now simply pull the ends of the rope thus making the circle grow smaller. The group must try to survive for as long as possible (They will fight for survival) I make a rule of no pushing, however team work is the key, getting people on your back, making a human tower etc. A person is out when they step over the rope.
