Office Break Games

Drawing games

Draw and guess

One person draws, their team guesses, the clock runs. Pictionary on a meeting-room whiteboard, with office words if you like.

Players
4–16, two teams
Time
15–30 min

What you need

  • A whiteboard or flip chart
  • Markers
  • Word slips
  • A phone timer

How to play

  1. Split into two teams and write word slips: objects, actions, office life.
  2. A drawer picks a slip and has one minute to draw it; no letters, numbers or talking.
  3. Their team shouts guesses. A right answer scores a point.
  4. Teams alternate; the first to ten points wins.

Office tip: Mix easy and hard words so nobody gets stuck with "synergy" twice.
