Principle of Battleship applies: Guess all of your partner answers before you can guess all of theirs. Here are all the versions that I play or have played:
Who has to do what chore? (chore vocab & tener que)
This, that or those way over there with Sporting items (sports equipment & demonstrative adjectives)
Items in a suitcase (travel items & direct objects)
Who is the patient in the waiting room? (doler & body parts)
Who went where? (preposition con)
What gift for which person? (preposition para)

15. Accuracy Games
Número Magico : Quick vocabulary matching game where students match English to Spanish translations. The número magico is the same number in every column and row.
Contra El Reloj: Students have a set number of problems to do, once complete they raise their hand to mark the time. We go over the correct answers and for every answer that is wrong time is added to your final time total.
Reverse Hangman: Students write/ conjugate for accuracy, every time their answer is correct they get to add an item to their shape.
