Top Games to Play at Game Night
Best games when hosting at home
May the best player win
If you've ever walked into a friend's house to find people racing off into the next room, only to return seconds later with spoons in their hands—all but one player—you've experienced firsthand the thrill that playing "Extreme Spoons" can bring to a get-together. When it comes to gathering people together, we love to add an element of extra interaction to the mix. A great way to do this: playing game night at home. It doesn't need to be as intense as chasing each other to wrestle for spoons (it doesn't have to get that competitive, but we can't say we haven't seen it become so...) but we will argue in favor of adding a bit of friendly competition to the night. Whether you team up girls vs guys, 20s vs 30s, parents vs non... the options abound. So here for you, we've compiled our list of best games to play for game night.
