HOW TO PLAY

First Day of School Icebreakers

Answer it yourself first, so nobody feels put on the spot.

Starting a new school year can feel awkward, but a good question makes it easier to break the ice. These icebreakers are friendly, light and made for classmates who are just getting to know one another. Use them in a group, at lunch or as a quick warm-up with a new friend. They are also handy for clubs, teams and study groups. Share your own answer first to show it is safe to be honest, and listen with curiosity. Before you know it, the nervous energy turns into laughter, and a stranger becomes someone you wave to in the hallway.

GOOD TO KNOW

New result every time

Every tap picks a fresh result at random, so no two rounds are quite the same. Play as often as you like, save the ones you love and share them with friends.

No. Your nickname and answers stay on your own device and are never stored by Funmello. Sharing only happens when you tap Share or Save image.

Is this free, and can I play again?+

Funmello is free because public pages show Google ads. Google’s consent message asks visitors in the EEA, UK and Switzerland (and offers US state opt-outs) before personalised ads are used. Accounts, shortlists, polls and the name studio never load ad code, and nothing you type into a game or calculator is sent to Google. Bonus Lounge packs may offer an optional rewarded ad.
