The player has to make up an identity e.g a footballer.The person whose number was called out then has to go around the circle pretending to be a footballer. When he is finished he then calls a number and makes up an identity for the next person to be i.e a person playing basketball would go around the circle pretending to bounch a ball, a comedian would have to tell a joke, a bricklayer would pretend he was building something.

The game continues till everyone has had a turn.

To liven up the game use ideas like when the person says "Who are you?" the other could reply "A Spice Girl" - the person would have to pretend to be a spice girl

- or a ballet dancer, a barking dog, a galloping horse etc.

The list of amusing situations is endless.

This game is excellent for confidence building and an ideal icebreaker.
