HOW TO PLAY
1

Someone calls out "the floor is lava!" at any point during regular play or as a planned round.

2

From that moment, no player may touch the bare floor; everyone must climb onto furniture, cushions, or other safe objects.

3

Players move across the room by stepping only on approved safe surfaces, without touching the ground.

4

Anyone who touches the floor is out for that round, or must go back to the start, per house rules.

5

Set a time limit or a destination goal; the last player still off the floor, or the first to reach the goal, wins.
