Hi All,

We can play Antakshari...or dumb charades...or how about a game like Cranium? We bought the game a few days back and it seems very interesting..I got the following description from Wikipedia...
"
Cranium involves teams advancing around the board toward "Cranium Central" in the center, by doing activities on the Cranium cards. The cards are divided into four decks, and each deck involves a skill that players will need to use to complete the activity. Each deck is divided into several specific activities.
Creative Cat - involves artistic skill

• Cloodle - A player must sketch a clue for their teammates to guess, just like Pictionary. (No gestures)
• Sensosketch - Just like Cloodle, but the artist's eyes must be closed while sketching.
• Sculptorades - A player must sculpt a clue with clay for their teammates to guess. (The game includes "Cranium Clay" for this activity.) (No gestures or acting of any kind is permitted)

Data Head - involves knowledge of trivia

• Factoid - The team must confer to answer a trivia question, just like in Trivial Pursuit.
• Selectaquest - Just like Factoid, except the team will choose their answer from four different choices.
• Polygraph - The team must decide whether the statement given on the card is true or false.

Word Worm - involves langauge skills

• Spellbound - The team must choose one person to spell the word given on the card (on the first try, the team is not allowed to confer the word).
• Gnilleps - Gnilleps, which is "spelling" backwards, is just like Spellbound, except the word must be spelled backwards (without writing it down).
• Lexicon - The team must choose, from four different choices, the definition to an obscure word.
• Zelpuz - The team is given an anagram puzzle and must unscramble the letters to find the answer. A clue is given with the puzzle to make it easier.
• Blankout - Written on the card is a word, phrase, or title with some letters left out. The team must fill in the blanks to find the answer. A clue is given with the puzzle to make it easier.

Star Performer - involves performance skills

• Cameo - A player must act out silent clues to get his teammates to guess the word, just like in charades (No gestures are allowed as in how many words there are, nor giving signs that your team is on the right track.)
• Copycat - The clue on the card is a famous person or character, which the performer must get their teammates to guess by imitating the person's actions and speech. (teammates may not ask questions, nor is the performer allowed to answer them. The performer is not allowed to say proper names.)
• Humdinger - The clue on the card is a famous tune, which the performer must get their teammates to guess by humming or whistling it. (The performer must know the tune, s/he is not permitted to pronounce each word for his/her teammates to guess.)"

What say you??

ppl guess mostly i will be there.(my sweet hubby shifted the party to sunday ) one of my friend is also coming with me. but still i am confused. i dont want to bring my daughter as she is very young (just 7 months old). so i will confirm whether my hubby also comes or not finally. so u can put 2 near manju (prob three +1baby).

looks like the game is really interesting and guess it will take hrs to complete.

That's a great idea!! I know more abt hindi movie tunes than american songs..
