Spot time-travel twists as you watch a film, from an old photograph changing to a character meeting their future self. Tick off the moments you notice and aim to complete a line.
How to run this activity
Choose a suitable event, film or licensed music playlist in advance; tick only cues actually observed or heard. Do not use copyrighted film stills, lyrics, artwork or branded franchise logos as official RoomZing template content. Provide accessible alternatives to sound-only cues.
Facilitator guidance
Preview your chosen film and check which cues occur and how often. Aim for a one-line win rather than full-card completion, making sure five in a row is realistically achievable. Replace unrealistic cues and offer substitutes for any that do not suit your film or players.
Safety and inclusion
Use inclusive language and do not pressure players to disclose private information. Use original prompts and visuals, and check that your chosen content is suitable and that you have permission or any required licence to use the media. Do not use franchise logos, protected artwork, film stills or reproduced lyrics.
