Ok i did some research. I was bored and looking at forums so i went to see if there was any new fruits basket forums and there was... Fruits Basket Turnover!!!! This is the Fruits Basket game Tohru played when she was little, hopefully you still remeber from reading! So i thought since we are the Furuba Fan Guild i thought we should have the game too ^_^

Some Facts

It is also called Fruits Basket Upset, Fruit Salad, Fruit Bowl, and Fruits Basket.

A Cold Wind Blows is almost the same exact game but its a little different.

There are Young Adult and Adult versions too, they dont use fruits though...

Rules!

The game is played as follows:

1. The players are divided into equal-sized groups, with each group having the name of a fruit.

2. A circle is formed with a number of chairs equal to one less than the number of players. The players sit on the chairs, ensuring that members of each group are evenly distributed around the circle.

3. One player will be left without a chair, and will stand in the center of the circle.

4. The player standing in the center calls out one of the fruit names. When this happens, all players in that group must stand up from their seats and move to another seat in the circle. The player in the center must attempt to take one of the free seats while the other players are moving.

5. A new player will then be left in the center, enabling the game to be repeated. If any player failed to move even though their group's fruit name was called, they are required to move into the centre and the player previously in the center sits in their seat.

6. Instead of stating a fruit name, the player in the center may call "Fruit Basket Turnover!", "Fruit Basket Upset!" or "Fruits Basket!", in which case everybody must move to a different seat.

There is often a restriction that the player must move to a seat not adjacent to their own ...

In some variants of the game, a player can be eliminated from the game, usually if they either fail to move when their fruit name is called, or are due to appear in the center for two rounds in a row. Whenever a player is eliminated, a chair is also removed from the circle. The game seems like a combination of the games Musical Chairs and Duck Duck Goose.

In an outdoor version of the game, the players stand along the side of a large open area, and must run from one side to the other without being tagged when their fruit, or 'turnover', is called. Any player who is caught by the player in the middle must join the player in the middle to help catch players on future moves. Eventually, all players are caught.
