Procedure
One player is selected to be the Simon. He may express simple tasks like "sing", "dance", "laugh", "raise your arms", "hop around", and so on. The other players have to complete the tasks, however, they may only do that if Simon explicitly said "Simon says: laugh". If Simon just says: "Laugh!", no player may do anything.
Any player failing to play by the rules (moving when not allowed or not moving when having to) is out of the game (or scores a negative point).
