Monkey Business

Players receive the same action card except for one player who is designated the scammer and must fake the action without knowing it. All players mime the action simultaneously for a short interval while the scammer observes and tries to blend in. After the mime, everyone points at who they believe the scammer is; scoring rewards correct identifications and rewards the scammer when others are fooled. The game plays in multiple rounds with variable player counts and can include two scammers at higher counts. Rounds are quick and emphasize observation, deduction, and imitation.

    1 partida en Jesta 2017. Todos los jugadores menos uno deben gesticular cierta acción (todos la misma), pero un jugador (el mono), no sabe lo que tienen que hacer el resto, así que, para que sepan que él es el mono, debe intentar imitarles lo más rápido posible y hacerse pasar por uno más. Chorri-juego que se limita a fijarse quién hace "lo que sea" el último, deduciendo que ese es el mono.
