de.wikipedia: Stille Post is a children's game. In the game, the participants arrange themselves in a row or a circle. One player thinks up a message. This message is then whispered from mouth to ear by one participant to the respective neighbour. The fun of the game results from the subsequent resolution, where the last person in the row speaks out loudly what was whispered into their ear as the final message. The increasing distortion of the original message can be documented by each participant repeating the understood message loudly for all.
