Upvoted. This helps teach the skill of “noticing WHEN you need a more specific answer”, especially if you set the expectation of somewhat tricky, literal answers (think “giving orders to a malicious idiot”) to badly phrased questions.
You can also pretty easily split the group in to pairs—have one person pick an object in the room, then the other person has to ask questions until they can physically touch the object to confirm they have the right one in mind.
I’d also set up the room with a lot of similar objects—have ten of the same identical vase in the room, for example. Try to involve distinguishing factors people might not normally think of. “Is it the vase on the left or right of the bookshelf?” is a novel question to come up with—it creates fun “aha!” moments instead of just using scripted questions.
