Guests are split into teams and must eat randomly assigned treats or tricks. Each team races to finish their challenges, with penalties for refusal. The fastest team claims victory.
Directions
- Keep the game a surprise. Split your guests into 2, 3, or 4 teams. Remember, each team must have someone to hand out the Tricks and Treats.
- Assemble a batch of Tricks and a batch of Treats for each team. Assign numbers to the items so players can choose by number. Know which numbers correspond to tricks and which to treats.
- Once teams are formed, announce that they will be playing Trick or Treat Fear Factor.
- The first player from each team sits at the table and rolls the dice or draws a card from the pile.
- If they draw a Treat, they pick a Treat item and eat it. If they draw a Trick, they pick a Trick item and eat that instead.
- Time how long each team takes to finish all their Tricks and Treats. The team with the shortest time wins.
- If a player refuses to eat their Trick, add a 1‑minute penalty, and another team member must eat that item. If no one eats it, add a 2‑minute penalty.
