The document describes rules for several icebreaker games that can be played at a meeting, including: 1) A word chain game with two groups competitively coming up with words starting with the last letter of the previous word. 2) A job guessing game with hints where groups try to correctly guess what job another member was assigned. 3) An acting game where members act out irregular verbs without speaking for their group to guess. 4) A collaborative storytelling game where groups take turns adding single words to a story including assigned keywords.
