Speed Rounds

The last player to correctly follow the leader’s action is out for that round.

The leader announces a body part (like the left arm) that followers should not mimic. If a follower uses that body part, they are out.

The leader performs actions at a faster pace, increasing the challenge for followers.

Players must mimic the leader's actions as if they are looking in a mirror (e.g., if the leader raises their right hand, players raise their left).
