We really should have done this and put it on TV a long time ago. In a guessing game with a uniquely Singaporean twist, community project HoodChampions came up with the first ever Singlish Charades competition, where participants have to do the nigh-impossible task of acting out colloquial phrases.
Oh, and don’t play play one. $3,000 in cash prizes are up for grabs in this inter-hood competish.
Months since the competition was launched, and HoodChampions have started churning out videos from the games — and it’s even harder than we thought. But sialah bro, funny gila. Watch teams from Punggol West, Choa Chu Kang, Bukit Merah and more struggle hilariously acting out words like “kiasi”, “sekali”, “pokkai” and “kok-kok” below.
Here’s one that they just uploaded with the highlights of all the other stump-worthy words.
In the end it was team Bochap from Choa Chu Kang who ended up as winners of the first Singlish Charades of 2016.
