Family Games

rebekahb · 11-08-2021, 12:52 PM

We are hosting Thanksgiving again this year. Last year, we played 2 games after eating (can't remember what one was called & Scattergories). It was a great time and lots of laugh. Everyone is adults (16 people) except for my 7 year old nephew. What are your favorite games to play for a larger group of adults?

UncleWede · 11-08-2021, 12:55 PM

Loteria, I think they play $.25/card.

Kid learns Spanish as a side benefit

Assuming everyone has a smartphone these days, one of our favorite party games is Fibbage - everyone loves that one.

If you want to bring out the worst of everyone (in a fun and hilarious way), you can't go wrong with Cards Against Humanity but note that will NOT be appropriate for the 7 yr old.

Balderdash is also a lot of fun, and Meme This! will work for all ages too.

Thanks, I'll check out Fibbage, Balderdsah and Meme This.

We have killed ourselves laughing with friends when we played Cards Against Humanity but definitely don't think it would be good for my nephew lol. My mother in law can be a prude at times so don't think that would be for her. I can hear her saying, oh hun can you believe this? That's just awful. That's not right.

I have so many replies that I want to share, however; all of my answers are smart assed, inappropriate and I should be a better person. None of my responses would be considered "Family Appropriate".......unless we are using PornHub's definition of family.

We always play football in the front yard.

Rain or snow. Epic Nerf gun battle on the farm or in the barn. We have duffle bags with Nerf guns in them.

upstatedoc · 11-08-2021, 02:02 PM

Pictionary or trivial pursuit. Be warned, those games can get heated

+1 for Fibbage... so much fun. Although I think there's a limit (6 people? maybe 8...) who can play at a time.

Jesus this is the way to go. THere's a reason they're called BORED games. Brutal, just brutal, every last one of them.

I always played "Pick up your S**T and GTFO" myself.

Well, when most of the people are over 65 this won't work. Can you imagine the amount of injuries that would occur in the first 10 minutes

Some people are game people and others aren't. There is a bit of family drama between my MIL & her SIL so last year it really helped.

Haha, well they're a bunch of Italians and they like to talk, eat and drink. Luckily, they don't stay to late.

spazzyfry123 · 11-08-2021, 03:24 PM

Cards Against Humanity is always a good one with family.

"What did your grandmother say about a penis...?"

Dang3r · 11-08-2021, 03:37 PM

I'd always loved "I went to the shop and bought myself...", its good for training the brains.
