About The Box

How to play

  • Lay the numbered cards out on the floor with the ‘chance’, ‘forfeit’, ‘go forward’ and ‘go backwards’ cards randomly placed throughout.
  • Depending on your hall floor you might want to use some tape to secure these to the floor. Please REMOVE the tape from cards after using.
  • Set up an area for the forfeits/challenges
    • Place them all out and allow the girls to select the first available one to complete
  • Split the girls into groups (this can be anything from pairs to groups of six (ish) however if you are playing for prizes make the groups as even as possible.
  • Each group has a die and a piece of paper to keep their groups score on.
  • Each group rolls their die and the group with the highest number goes first.
  • They then move around the board completing the challenges/forfeits as they go.
    • The groups don’t need to complete the same challenges
    • Each successfully completed challenge gains the group 5 points.
  • There is no need for the groups to take in in turns as they will roll different numbers so naturally spread out.
  • If a group completes the board they can re-start.
  • The winning group is the group with the most points at the end of the time allocated for playing the game.
    • This depends on the duration of your meeting.
