Switch
1990s-present
Also known as Actor Switch, Character Swap
Two-plus players play a scene; whenever the MC yells 'Switch!' the last word, phrase, action, or character assignment must swap to something different.
Known for
- Variant 'Switch Characters': all players rotate character to the right.
- MC must let the scene establish who/where/what before starting the switches.
- Different from New Choice in that the replacement is forced rather than chosen — a random twist.
