A step-by-step guide to play the game

Everyone is together in one group.

You ask questions to which the participants must answer 'yes' or 'no'.

For example, choose questions that have a certain cultural content.

Example questions:

Do you take your shoes off at home?
Do you eat at home with the other family members?
Do you watch TV every day?
Do you eat meat every day?
Do you pray at home?
Do any other family members live in your house?

After each question, the group splits into a group that answered "yes" and a group that answered "no."

You do this until everyone is ultimately alone.

Have a follow-up discussion with the group.

You can focus on the fact that there are many similarities between people, but everyone is ultimately different. Or vice versa: that people who are different at first sight also have a lot in common.

Variations

Everyone sits in a circle on a chair. You ask a question. If you can answer 'yes', sit on the lap of your left neighbor. The same happens with the following questions. If someone is sitting on your lap, he has to move.
