Person help: has anyone heard of the riddle/game called the box?

Mrs. Hasta Pianoman

has anyone heard of the riddle/game called the box?

the person says “if I have the box then give it to you, then who has the box?” or they say ‘if I have the box and give it to jenny who gives it to jenson, who has the box?” and then the answer will be like andrew or soemthing

I’m sooooooo confused as to how it works, so if you know, by all means tell me…PLEASE!!!

aha! i actually know this game! i can actually be helpful!!!

there are many games like this and to solve them you have to be really attentive and look for a clue. if you’re playing with a group of people watch the speaker for any tell-tale signs. his hamds may be angled in a way so they are actually pointing at a person. this person’s name would be the correct answer. most of the time what the person says has nothing to do with who has the box!

the one that actually took me the longest to figure out was probably the simplest. when the speaker asks the question, the first person to venture an answer BECOMES the answer. so for example if john shouts ALEX! then you shout JOHN! and that will be the right answer.

have fun, hope this helps!

what about the game thats like “I can take a train from my house to Boston.” and they then ask “what about you?” and you reply with anything like “I can take a train from New York to New Jersey” and they will say no you can’t do that…but theres a certain code or something but i dont know it…

The train one is you have to say ‘umm’ while thinking of somewhere for the train to go. For example I can take a train from my house to umm australia, but you couldn’t take a train from australia to my house.
