For(4),(5) more for young adult/ working adult to know more about each other. Question can change to more relevant 

** there will have participant that close their eyes through out the round. Hence It will be good for game host to know a bit about the participant prior this game else have a more general question that will have all to open and close their eyes i.e round 1 if you have wear glasses before stand, round 2 if you have perfect eye sight stand. 

Propose for this game to last 30min onwards:

Expected outcome:
What we will like to have for this game is participant know something they have in common, and during the sharing session if they are willing to share.

Objective of Integrity is for character building of younger youth (6~18). At the start of the game explain to them what is integrity. Though out this game participant should be having their eyes closed unless they are suppose to open. Hence explaining to them that integrity is doing the right thing when no body if looking at you. We will see kids that might peeked at certain question that might attract their attention (certain game that he/she might not have). At this point do not fault/point out their name, just look at him/her. At the end of the session re-enforce the character of integrity and ask the group what do they think and share (do pick that student and hear what he/she mention).
