How to Play:
Game Setup:
- Arrange the chairs in a circle, back to back, with one less chair than the number of participants (e.g., 10 chairs for 11 players).
- Make sure the room has enough space for the participants to walk around the chairs.
Gameplay:
- Start playing music and have the participants walk in a circle around the chairs with their hands behind their backs.
- When the music stops suddenly, everyone must quickly sit down on a chair.
- If two people try to sit on the same chair, one of them has to find another free chair.
- The player left without a chair when all others are seated is out of the game.
Continue the game:
- Remove one chair after each round and start the music again.
- Repeat this process, eliminating one player each round, until only two participants and one chair remain.
Winning the game:
- The game ends when the last two players compete for the final chair. The player who sits down first when the music stops wins the game.
