Summary
Six players line up and are each assigned a number, one through six. Two players start a scene. The caller shouts a number at any time — that numbered player immediately runs in and takes over for one of the two active players. The replaced player steps back to the line. The scene continues with whoever is currently “in.” The caller should keep pace fast. The game forces players to enter mid-scene with zero context and immediately justify their presence. High-energy, good for advanced groups.
Example
Players 2 and 5 are in a scene — two doctors in an emergency room. Caller: “Four!” Player 4 runs in, takes Player 5’s spot. Caller: “One!” Player 1 takes over for Player 2. Two completely different people are now doing the same scene. Caller keeps going.
