What Makes a Good Party Game?
There are plenty of party games available, but what truly makes a party game great, and right for your group?
Some factors to consider when picking out the perfect party game include:
- Game length
You’ll want to be aware of just how much gaming your group will be interested in. Luckily, party games come in forms that are great for just 5-10 minutes of play, all the way up to an hour or more. Look for information on the box to see how long an average game will last, as well as how many players the game is suitable for.
- Humor
Party games are ideal for introducing some laughter into your event. Look for games that offer up the funny, and your friends and family members will be rolling in the aisle with laughter in no time!
- Easy-to-Learn Rules
You don’t want to spend too much time mulling over the rulebook when bringing out a party game for your group. Look out for games with simple concepts that can be learned in a short amount of time, so the game and fun can get going right away!
Example of Popular Party Games
To get you started on your search for the right party game, let’s also take a look at some of the most popular ones available at Kohl’s!
Jenga This classic game is a test of dexterity and concentration. Try to remove wooden blocks from a tower, but be careful not to bring the whole structure down! |
Charades Get your acting skills ready, as you try to get your team to guess a word or phrase. But remember, no talking! |
Exploding Kittens This more recent party game option has taken the gaming world by storm! Simply draw cards...until you pick one in which a kitten explodes! However, use your cards that feature laser pointers, belly rubs, and catnip sandwiches to stay in the game! Sound zany? It sure is! |
Other Types of Board Games
Other types of board games that might be of interest to your group also include:
- Roll-and-Move Games
This type of game encompasses all the classic board games you might think of when you hear the term “board game”: Monopoly, Sorry!, The Game of Life, and more. In this type of game, a player relies on dice, a spinner, or some other device to allow them to move around a board in a fairly linear fashion. Outcomes tend to be the result of luck more than strategy.
Looking for games that really require you to put on your thinking cap? Then try a strategy game, where the thoughts, plans, and actions of the players directly affect the outcome of the game. One of the most popular and timeless examples of a strategy game is chess, but an entire new generation of strategy games have found their way into gamers’ collections, tackling challenges in fun, new, and exciting ways. Great examples of these newer strategy games include Ticket to Ride, Carcassonne, and Settlers of Catan.
We also offer cooperative strategy games that will bring your gaming group together to work as one to achieve a shared goal!
No matter what kind of games you’re looking for, Kohl’s has the options you need to make game night extra special!
