This game is entertaining and suitable for people of any age and for any number of people. It develops listening and co-ordination skills in children and is a popular game for parties and classrooms.
One person becomes a leader and everyone else surrounds that person. The leader gives instructions, but only those instructions preceded by "Simon Says" are to be followed. If someone follows to fail such an instruction or follows an instruction that is not preceded by "Simon Says" they must leave the game. The last person remaining in the game other than the leader is the winner and will become the new leader in the next game.
Simon Says is a game of strategy. Talking fast, starting and quickly stopping patterns of instructions or doing actions that are different from the instructions are ways in which the leader can make it harder for people to follow instructions.
