For example – Meg Ryan was in You’ve Got Mail with Tom Hanks, who was in Apollo 13 with Kevin Bacon, which is two degrees of separation.

]]> 88191 2 0 Step Start the game Choose the order of play and pick an actor to start the game. Have the first player link a celebrity to the original name, then another who has been in a movie with that actor to a third, and so on.

]]> 88192 3 0 Step Score Taking more than six steps of separation ends the turn. That person will be charged with 10 points. Otherwise, each correct link for six or fewer connections on the way to Kevin Bacon counts as a point.

]]> 88193 4 0 Tip Connect the actor to large, ensemble cast films such as Crash or Mars Attacks, which offer more links to other films.

]]> 88194 5 0 Step Start again If no one is able to connect to Kevin Bacon in six degrees or fewer, the starting player must do so or is penalized 10 points.

]]> 88195 6 0 Tip Substitute other celebrities for Kevin Bacon.

]]> 88196 7 0 Step Fewest points wins Continue taking turns until the person with the fewest points, or degrees of separation, wins.

]]> 88197 8 0 Fact Kevin Bacon founded the initiative Six Degrees in 2007 to help charities raise money through social networking.
