Favourite Party Games in general Reviews

I work in an after school club and during the last week of term before Christmas we have a party each day. This is because we have different children on different days of the week, so everybody gets to have a party day. There is lots of food and pop and then lots of party games, by Christmas day i feel all partied out. We have to make ...  Read the complete review

~Introduction~ This is now my second review of a card game in a week, but I do have an awful lot of free time to waste playing games at school. As I said in my previous review, I am very keen on card games and I find them immensely enjoyable and they are sometimes a great occasion, coupled with a fun but sometimes serious ...  Read the complete review

My eldest brother moved to New Zealand just over two years ago so the year before we had our last family Christmas we may ever have. I have two brothers who at the time all lived in Cornwall. My parents and I went down to see them for the holiday and have a festive time. My brothers together at the time had five children so we had the fun of ...  Read the complete review

So, you’re at the party from hell! everyone is sitting politely, sipping wine and beer from nice clean glasses, the host is desperately trying to liven things up but failing miserably. The first mistake was putting “Bat out of Hell” on continuous play on the CD system. The second mistake was inviting the boss and his wife and ...  Read the complete review

A simple game this, fun and best played in a pub, but it can be amended to home/party use. Simply gather people around a table and take it in turns to roll a dice. Count each 6 thrown, the person who throws the 6th 6 names any drink he/she wishes to. Who so ever throws the 12th 6 buys the drink at the bar, or gets it if ...  Read the complete review

Here is a selection of party games that will certainly degenerate into a mass of people screaming "Who's got their foot in my bra?!" or "Hey, I won this one!" THE BUS GAME ------------------ This is a classic game for the incredibly competitive chrimbo bash! Each person takes a chair and has their ...  Read the complete review

Not having any children, or many grandparents, nearly all the parties I host or attend are made up of young adults who still haven't learnt that alcohol only leads to pain and misery (with a short burst of hilarity on the way). Now, I do try to be modest, but I would be withholding valuable information if I didn't mention that I ...  Read the complete review

It's Xmas afternoon, everybody is full of Xmas cheer and it's time to settle down to some traditional Xmas games. The queen has done her "my husband and I" bit and you look at each other for suggestions. Oh! No! Not charades again! You fancy something different, but what? How about a Xmas afternoon at the races for a bit ...  Read the complete review

I was introduced to this rather bizarre 'game' two Christmasses ago by my cousin Claire who'd picked it up during her time spent as a reveller at University...so bear with me! The idea is to place a two pence coin between your buttocks and then carefully waddle towards a glass tumbler placed about 2 metres from the starting ...  Read the complete review

This has got to be the best game I have ever played. I would say the more you have playing it the better!. You have a large mat with about ten circles in it with around five colours. With it comes a board with what looks like a clock. You spin it and it lands on a colour. With that the board tells you if you put a hand or a foot down. Before you ...  Read the complete review

In not sure if this was a made up game or something someone got out of a book but at our family get togethers we play this game. It can be played from 2 players up, and I would say from the age 8 up and it all depends how easy or hard you make it. Someone is picked to go first and they have to decide on a rule to link certain ...  Read the complete review

To be honest I have found that party games like Charades, Musical chairs and the like are getting a bit old hat and so recently I was introduced to a game which my friends call "Rizzla head" (don't smoke so not sure of the spelling, but hope you understand!! - those papers in which you roll cigerettes!). The idea is that you ...  Read the complete review

Who's in the bag is sort of like verbal charades. It consists of cards with the names of celebrities or famous people on them, which you pick out of the bag and have to try and describe to your team mates. You'll know the kind of thing if you've seen "They think its all over". You can act, sing, impersonate, mime or ...  Read the complete review

Christmas is coming the goose is getting fat etc etc. Bring out all the old cliches like White Christmas on the box, Grandma giving you a 'lovely' hand knitted jumper again, charades after dinner... But not his year! I found an excellent after dinner party game earlier this year which can add a little variety to you after-dinner ...  Read the complete review
