Description

One player leaves the stage (or gets a headphone). Audience provides an object, and something not-so-obvious that is wrong with the object. Example: an airliner for which the keys to open the door have been lost. In the game the player that is `it` needs to solve the problem, without knowing what the problem is. As soon as she finds out the game is over.

Variations

Bring the object back to the shop where it was purchased. Shopkeeper should give hints as to what the object is.

Instead of an object, use an animal that is sick, dead or does not do what was promised. Like a parrot that refuse to speak - Also known as Veterinarian Endowment. .

Invert it - have the shopkeeper guess what it is.
