Today we played one of the many games in which we will encounter this year. There was not much people that participated in the game however it was still very enjoyable. I thank you members for who have participated

The Basics
-A preset number of “mice” will be set for the players to “catch
-As the song plays, you either miss the mouse by saying “Oops” or state “I got it” by grabbing the mouse.
-When all the mice are captured, everyone should yell “HOORAY/BANZAI“ with their hands in the air.
-If a player misses/mixes a gesture or doesn’t yell “HOORAY/BANZAI“ when all mice are captured, The game supervisor will *bonk* the offending player in the head with any (non-lethal) object. [In other words, he/she is out]
-Anyone who hesitates with an action gets smacked as well

Step-By-Step
-At the beginning of the game, all players sing “Catch the mouse, catch the mouse, catch, catch, catch; how many, how many?
-Players take turns determining the number of mice being caught in a round. If a player forgets their turn or hesitates setting any number, the player is smacked.
-Once the number of ‘Catchable’ mice is set, players have either two gestures to choose from
>I got it!; Player makes a *grasping* gesture with both hands
>Oops!; player gestures with their hands open or taps their forehead (face-palm >:D)
-As soon as all mice are “caught”, all players yell “Hooray!” with their arms in the air. Again, if a player hesitates or makes a wrong/no gesture, they can be smacked.

Video Examples of "Catch the Mouse"
[ Directions & Rules ] - The original
[ AniManga Club ] - I find this video very entertaining and worth self teaching. It helped a lot into explaining the rules of the game and on how to play it.
[ Catch the Mouse with Special Guests ] - This is the original place of the game. It is based off on a show called Heroine 6. Best to see how the real game is played.

I hope to use this game soon in the club again :]
