Word Chain

Go round the group naming words where each new word must start with the last letter of the previous one โ€” no repeats, no hesitation.

How to run it

  1. Pick a starting player to say any word out loud โ€” for example, "apple".
  2. The next person says a word that begins with the last letter of that word: apple โ†’ elephant โ†’ tiger โ†’ rabbit, and so on.
  3. Keep going around the circle. No repeating a word that has already been used, and no long pauses.
  4. Anyone who repeats a word, says an invalid one, or hesitates too long is out (or simply restart the chain). To make it harder, limit it to a category like animals, countries, or food.
