How to Play Give each team a question sheet (List #1), an answer sheet and a pencil. To start the game, you need to pick a letter from the "Letter Bag" and show it to the teams. All answers for this round will start with this letter. Set the timer at 4 minutes. (You can change the amount of time depending on the age and level of your group.) All teams quickly fill in the first column of their answer sheets. Answers must fit the category and begin with the letter picked from the bag. When the timer stops, teams stop writing. Scoring A Round: Have the teams read their answers out loud for number 1. Teams correct their own answer sheets by putting a circle around an answer that DOES NOT match any other teams' answer. Continue reading answers until all 12 categories have been scored. Then, score 1 point for each of your circled answers. Put your score at the top of the column of your answer sheet. Starting a New Round: Set the timer, pick a new letter and give out Question Sheet List #2. Winning the Game: After 3 rounds have been played, all players/teams total the 3 scores on their answer sheets. The player/team with the highest score is the winner.

Adapt the Game: Have one team think of a category and another team pick a letter. Set the timer and see which team can come up with the most answers. You can do Scattergories in languages other than English. Have the players use their Aboriginal language instead. You could have a northern theme where the answers have to be from the north.
