Adult board / party games?
Do you like board games or game night with your friends? I used to, but my group of friends have sort of gotten tired of the games we have and I'm looking for something new to play. Apples to Apples is a good game to is Taboo, but those games can still be considered "Family" type games. I'm sort of looking for something that's a little more flirty or suggestive, but still something you can play with "Adult" relatives. Do you have a favorite game? What is it?

There was another card game I used to play in college ... I can't remember the title though. It was about zombies on a train. Players had two cards(since you have two hands to hold stuff with), and you'd find different brains to jam into your head. Whoever had the smartest brain when the train stopped won.

Oct 01 13 06:07 pm Link I'm guessing when you say party game, you mean a game for more than 4 or 5 people, right? http://boardgamegeek.com/ has critiques on all new board games that come out. Cards against humanity is indeed a party game, meaning little strategy and still fun for drunk people. And, it is indeed adult, but very, very young adult. Think 19 year olds. Total potty humor. It's fun about twice, then it gets pretty annoying if you're used to strategy games or Apples to Apples. It's the same game as apples to apples, but with adult themes. Look up Dixit. Great party game. Little strategy, although it helps to know a few other players reasonably well. There are expansions, too. 7 wonders is another good party game, can take 7 players. Pretty easy to learn, but pay close attention to all the icons on the cards. The Great Dalmuti is a fabulous party gard game. Only around $16 bucks. 12 12s. 11 11s all the way down to 1 1. You take tricks with the lowest card in your hand, then you've got control and play a card. First one to get rid of all cards makes you the Great Dalmuti. You switch places, because where you sit makes a difference in this game. The Greater Peon, the last person to go out last round, now has to give the Great Dalmuti his lowest two cards, and the Great Dalmuti may give the greater peon any two cards he wishes. Then, you play another round, and switch seats again. Everyone is trying to go out first to be the GD cause it's easier to stay in. Stupid people really feel stupid in this game if they can't get out of the Greater Peon position, but they just need to think it out. I've gotten out of that position, and moved up the table in three rounds to get the GD and hold it for four or five rounds, then make a mistake and lose two or three seats. Great game. King of Tokyo is really, really fun! Considerable strategy involved, though. But, still easy for kids to learn. Get a used copy of Perudo. Dice game. One of my favorite party games of all time. But, only six players, unless you have two and can combine for 7 to 12 players. Works just fine with more. The Resistance gets a lot of play at Game Empire where we play. Card game of spys trying to figure out other spys, etc. Several others, but I can't think of them at the moment. If I think of more I'll come back and add them. Here's a list of Boardgamegeek's 25 party games. http://boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/5177/ … arty-games Consider getting a few games that aren't normal "party" games, ie. only have room for 4 or 5 players. Many are still fun, not too technical or strategic, and only take 30 minutes to an hour to play. Spartacus is my favorite game of 2012, but only allows 4 players. Oct 02 13 07:28 am Link |
