This or that
This or that is a simple talking game where players choose which of two items they prefer. It’s best for a small group, maybe even two players only. And you don’t need anything! It’s a great getting-to-know you game.
Thanksgiving gratitude tradition
A Thanksgiving tradition my mother-in-law always does. It’s a talking reflection activity, a great way to develop grateful hearts because it goes beyond the typical “Name one thing you’re grateful for this year.”
Murder: Hand-squeezing version
A group game where one player, the murderer, squeezes people’s hands to “kill” them, trying to kill as many as he can before his identity is discovered.
Mafia
A group game best played late at night. Players discuss, lie, and deceive to try to discover the identity of a secret murderer amongst the group before they’re all eliminated.
Would you rather
A hypothetical talking game where players choose which of two scenarios they’d rather do. It can get kind of silly/absurd, which is always fun. For example…would you rather play “Would you rather” only for the rest of your life, or never play another game again? 😉
