Crazy Comic

Crazy Comic is from the book 104 Activities that Build by Alanna Jones and encourages teamwork, standardization and coordination.

What you’ll need:

Three or more people

Pencils

Paper

How to play:

Depending on how many team members you have, divide them evenly into groups. Each group will create their own comic strip.

Each person is responsible for drawing one frame of the strip, so the comic’s length is based on how many people are in each group (for example, three people make a three-frame comic). Assign a set amount of time for each team to discuss what the comic will be about, what each person will draw, and so on.

The team will begin drawing at the exact same time without any interaction, so everything must be discussed in detail beforehand. The team is also not allowed to see what the other members are drawing. When time is up, have the teams gather to look at and discuss their comics.

The most effective teams organize themselves with minimal help from leaders. This is an excellent game for teams to practice vision cohesion across components.

This game also works well with teams separated across offices or working remotely. They can work verbally over the phone or Skype to create the comic.
