We used to play a game in Egypt called "Arosty"... which is a guessing game..
It goes like this:
A person "could be an adult or a child",gives some information about "a place, buliding,person...etc." to his/her partner to guess the answer. Then, if the partner doesn �t know the answer he/she says "Arosty", to let the other partner give more information or description for him/her about the answer.
"Arosty" could be repeated many times until the answer becomes easy.
I want you please give me an equivalent for the word "Arosty", if you have a similar game.
Many thanks in advance. |

I don �t know if it �s the same game, but I know a
game called "Teapot".
According to the source: http://teachers.net/gazette/APR03/schandl.html "The
Teapot game works like this: One student left the room and the class comes up
with a word (noun) that is to be the secret word. Once the word is decided, the
student is asked to return to the classroom and sit in a chair at the front of
the room. Then each student has to say a sentence using the word
"Teapot." in his/her sentence instead of the secret word. If the
student cannot guess what the "Teapot." is, the students are
encouraged to give easier clues as the game progresses, until a student guesses
what "Teapot." is. The last student to give a sentence about
"Teapot." before it is correctly guessed is the next one to leave the
room until a new "teapot" is chosen. Well I hope it helps ... :)
