Attack 25: CoD Edition

Attack 25 (Call of Duty edition)

It’s the CoD edition because to spice things up, I’ve added the element of score-streaks to Japan’s favorite game show – Attack 25. The game is simple; all you need is a blackboard with at least 3 different color chalk and maybe some props for the score-streaks. Draw a 5x5 grid on the board with 1-25 filled in, and then explain the concept of score streaks. The first score streak should be something that isn’t too OP, something like answer a question again. The second score streak should be something like: cover 2 spaces at once. The third and final score streak (which definitely should be OP) should be something like cover a whole row/column at once, but only on a row/column that’s already occupied by the user team.



How to play: 

1)        Split the class into 3 teams.

2)        Each member of each team takes turns answering the next question.
