Get to know fellow resort guests by chatting with someone who has tried a local dish, joined a guided walk or found a favourite mocktail. Tick matching squares as you mingle at your own pace.

How to run this activity

Meet people at the gathering and tick a square when a willing participant matches its description. Different squares can involve different people. Do not ask anyone to share private details or disclose beliefs.

Facilitator guidance

Give a brief example, encourage introductions and let players pass; participation is voluntary and personal disclosures are never required. Check group size and interests, and consider a 3×3 board for smaller groups. On a 5×5 board, aim for a line of five rather than a full card; adjust the winning line for smaller boards. Check that the squares suit the resort’s activities and offer varied, accessible ways to achieve a winning line.

Safety and inclusion

Use inclusive language and do not pressure anyone to share private information. Avoid unsafe challenges, restricted areas and compulsory physical movement; offer seated alternatives.
