In brief: ‘It’ moves around and shake hands with players and ‘inject’ poison randomly.

Intensity: Medium

Introduction: A “who-dun-it” game.

Prop(s): None

How to play:

• Once again, the game is played within a confined area with everyone’s eyes closed, hands in the ‘bumper’ position (p.g. 30) with no talking allowed.
• You will walk around and choose the ‘murderer’ by tapping on that person’s shoulder.
• Once the ‘murderer’ has been chosen, all the participants can open their eyes.
• Everyone then walks around shaking hands for at least three seconds with one another.
• The ‘murderer’ will quietly ‘murder’ the ‘victim’ by using his/her middle finger to scratch the hand of the ‘victim’ – ‘injecting’ a ‘poison’.
• The ‘victim’, without reviewing that he/she has been poisoned, will continue to move around shaking hands with 3 other people.
• After shaking hands with the third person, the ‘victim’ will proceed to die a terrible ‘death’, the more dramatic the better.
• If any member of the group thinks he/she knows the identity of the “murderer”, he/she can make a guess.
• If the guess is wrong, that person is out of the game (for blaming the innocent).

Variation(s):

1. Instead of 1 ‘murderer’, 2 ‘murderers’ can be chosen. If the 2 ‘murderers’ happen to shake hands with each other, they ‘kill’ each other and the game ends.
