How the live icebreaker game works
The question goes on the big screen with one name under it. That person answers out loud. If they'd rather pass, the host picks someone else with one tap. Nobody gets picked twice in a row.
Icebreaker questions that get people talking
Good icebreakers are easy to answer and hard to answer badly. In the live game the screen shows a question and picks the next person to answer, so nobody has to volunteer.
