Summary

Dubbing is a "two-in-one" game, where players team up tightly to create a single character. One or more players speak all the dialogue while another handles the physical action. The magic is in the sync: it should look like the performer is saying their own lines. It leans hard on listening, group mind, teamwork, and support.

How to Play

  • One player performs the physical action while another supplies all the dialogue, working closely together.

Required Materials

  • Nothing needed.

Purpose

This one builds listening, group mind, teamwork, and support. It's all about close cooperation and staying in sync.

Variations

  • Back-to-Back Dubbing and 2-Way Dubbing are variations.
  • It is similar to Arms Through.
