At the table

The die lands and the roll chart says GUESS & SWAP: shake your gift, say what you think is inside, then swap with anyone. When the timer rings, the circle finishes the lap, so everyone has had the same number of turns.

Pick two other players to swap gifts.

What you get4 PDF files

Color and Ink Saver game files, each in US Letter (35 pages) and A4 (34 pages)
In each file4 roll charts (Mystery Round, Swap Round, Gentle Round, Jolly Round), 11 full-page action signs, Quick Rules, a host script, Freeze Tags, number cards, invitations and 3 certificates

Why it works

Every move is a swap between two players or a pass of the whole circle, so each person always holds one gift. A gift taken twice is frozen and stays put. The rules were tested in simulated games.

Made for: Office parties, family Christmas, church groups and senior centers. In the Gentle Round the host rolls for the group and nobody grabs or picks a gift.
