Tawanan
 

Description:

Tawanan, or the "laughing game," is from the Philippines and may leave players in a giggly mood. According to the Tagalog website (the official language of the Philippines), this game can involve up to 50 players, though it can be adapted for smaller groups. Before the game starts, players decide which side of a coin means "start laughing" and which side means "stop laughing." Everyone takes a seat, and the leader tosses the coin. Whichever side it lands on, the players have to obey. This game can get surprisingly tricky when players try to suppress their laughter. GAMES
