How to play Kahootz

Learn the rules to the mental trickery game Kahootz quickly and concisely - This video has no distractions, just the rules.

RULES:
The object of this game is to trick your friends into thinking you can telepathically communicate with each other while they try and figure out how. Before playing, you and your partner need to agree on a set of “triggers”. The triggers can be anything, but are typically whenever a player coughs, sneezes, or laughs. You can come up with more triggers if you like.

Have your partner leave the room so they cannot hear. Have the group pick an object then pretend to get into a mental state of kahootz with your partner. Bring the partner back. Then you both focus and you say to them: “Are we in kahootz”. Use this time to really sell the concept by being really serious. If your partner says “no” then you focus some more and ask again.

Once you are in kahootz, you start asking your partner about random objects in the room. Once your trigger happens, you give one more fake guess then you ask them about the real thing, which they say yes.
