Charades and drawing games are useful when people have been sitting too long. They create visible participation quickly.
Start with easy prompts

Use custom themes for stronger guessing
A birthday, classroom topic, office retreat, or holiday theme makes acting and drawing prompts feel specific instead of generic.
