Each of us at least once in a lifetime had to become a member of a boring party. The matter was limited to drinking alcohol, discussing acquaintances and watching stupid videos on the Internet. And of course, all this fun was generously flavored with tons of salads and snacks. If you are the host of the evening, you simply must not let your guests get bored, not only to leave good impressions of the meeting, but also to help people get to know each other and get closer if there are new faces in society. If you are invited and observe that people are specifically bored, you have a great opportunity to appear as the main entertainer and save this evening. With a trump card in the sleeve in the form of our article, no one will ever be bored again at parties! Games for an adult company simply must be an attribute of any evening. One has only to try, and it will be impossible to stop. Cool games for the company, even an ordinary light in a tight circle can turn into unrestrained fun. We provide you with some of the funniest and craziest ideas that are suitable for almost any occasion.
Sedentary games (games for the company at the table)
Many guests do not like being constantly pulled, so they prefer short and inactive games. We will talk about them in this part of the article.
"Crocodile"
Let's start with the classics, if I may say so in the context of games. It seems that our parents, if not grandparents, also played in Crocodile. But this is inaccurate, you can ask them. This game causes a lot of laughter, verified. The number of people is not limited - from three to infinity. The rules are simple: a person is guessed by a word, and he must show it only with gestures, it is forbidden to use sounds and show on objects. The remaining company guesses the word, shouting their assumptions. The guesser makes a new word to any person from the company or (another option) goes to show the word that the previous one will guess for him. Of course, it’s better not to guess some primitive words that are guessed in a few seconds. But it is also not recommended to overdo it, you should not use any complex or specific words that no one will guess. Even such a fun game in this case runs the risk of becoming a routine. Imagine and laugh.
"I never..."
This game is also quite famous, it is often liked to be shown in foreign films for some reason, but we are not far behind. You will need at least five players (the more, the more fun). The beginner says that he never did. Well, for example: “I never flew an airplane”, the remaining players who did this (in this case flew an airplane) give the player a piece of paper or paper in advance. The winner is the one who accumulates more pieces of paper. But games for an adult company deserve to be a little extreme, so there is an alternative version with alcohol. In this case, the players who did this drink shots or some other drink. It is necessary to ensure that the glasses are always full so as not to stop the game. But this is a rather daring option, providing that the company does not have teetotalers. This game is well suited to get to know better if the company is new, but you can learn a lot about old friends.
Fanta
We remember such games in the company since childhood. Surely each of you played forfeits. But just in case, we recall the rules. We take a hat, put name papers there, mix. The host takes out one piece of paper (without giving a name), and one of the players will come up with tasks for this fantasy. It can be anything that comes to mind, within reason, of course. Scream like a rooster, for example, or hug the first comer on the street. The main thing is to connect imagination.
"Pan"
In another way it is also called "Hat". The bottom line is that you need some kind of capacity for notes, and most often it is just a pan or hat. In this game you will need a simple inventory - a stopwatch. So, if you understand that the evening is at an impasse, get the aforementioned pot, pieces of paper and a stopwatch. On paper you need to write ten words (nouns) or another option - ten famous personalities (actors, musicians, fictional characters). The second version of the game, as practice shows, is much more fun. Next, you need to split into teams (at least two people). The hat goes in a circle, and the first player within 30 seconds must explain to his partner what is written on a piece of paper without using root words and gestures. If the partner guessed correctly, the next piece of paper is taken until the time runs out. It is not necessary to guess in 30 seconds, you can set the time in one minute. The team that guessed the most words wins.
"Monopoly"
Board games for the company in our time have a huge variety, but among the so-called desktops there are unsurpassed leaders who will not leave anyone indifferent. "Monopoly" is a great intellectual game, from which it is impossible to break away. It is addictive for many hours, and your guests are unlikely to want to leave home early, be prepared for this. Moreover, it is likely that you and your guests will forget about the table and about the reason for the meeting. The rules are quite extensive, but simple. We will briefly review the classic version. This evening you become the owner of yachts, factories, steamboats, and the goal is not to become bankrupt and get rich, as well as make correct and forward-thinking decisions. Despite the fact that the main events are driven by cubes, it is up to you to decide how to deal with real estate, buy or sell. You can even go to jail. The winner is the last one who has not left the game. Now this type of leisure is so popular that they even organize special evenings in bars where people gather to fight in their beloved “Monopoly”.
"Associations"
Board games for the company are good because you can play without being distracted from salads, this game just falls into the attractive category. Seat your guests in a circle, well, or stay at the table. Choose a leader and ask him to say any word in the ear to his neighbor, but so that others do not hear. The recipient of the word should, without hesitation, inform his association of the following. For example, "winter - snow", then "snow - New Year." The task is to name the word as quickly as possible. And so in a circle, the latter voices the word that came to him, and everyone is surprised at how much it differs from the originally conceived. But this game just seems simple, psychologists say that it develops the right hemisphere, associative thinking and communication skills.
"Letter to Uncle Fedor"
This game can hardly be attributed to the table. It is more likely for creative youth, but it is very funny in the end. You will need paper and a pen. Psychologists even claim that this is a very useful game that develops imagination, imagination and so on. So, if you want to develop imagination and speechlessness, gather your friends and start writing a story. A few lines are enough, they can be about anything. Break off in an unexpected place and offer to immediately continue to write to a friend. There is no need to think, the faster and more ridiculous, the more fun then to read all this. The next player has the same tasks. When everyone writes their stories, solemnly and with expression read out the nonsense that you wrote. But who knows, maybe this will not be nonsense, but a completely suitable story. As we can see, games for a company of friends are not always associated with popping balls and not with very intellectual contests.
"Funny scarf"
Not everyone likes to go too deep and load their heads with intellectual contests and games, so we offer a very simple but fun game. In the scenario presented below, you can feel like a wizard. After all, you will have a chance to make your guests laugh with just a scarf. Such games in the company are suitable for any age. Choose a leader or act in his role yourself. The task is simple: to put friends in a circle (yes, you have to get up from the table) and toss a handkerchief until it touches the ground, everyone should laugh. But as soon as he falls to the floor, abruptly shut up. Who does not succeed, he lost. Most likely, the majority will lose, but this is the goal.
"Mafia"
This game also has several variations, but "Mafia" is the most common name. It is incredibly interesting and fascinating and, oddly enough, is suitable for a feast. But it is quite possible to play simply at meetings, parties. In order to proceed, you will need at least five people, this is the only limitation. The plot is this: in the room (your friends, respectively), the inhabitants of the town are tired of rampant crime and decide to put the mafiosi behind bars. The commissioner helps them in this. But you have to rack your brains and even apply acting skills. From the props, you will need a deck of cards or sheets with pre-written roles. If a deck is dealt, then those who got the red suit will be ordinary residents. The red ace is the commissioner. Players with black cards are the mafia. Naturally, the cards are kept in strict confidence, and the task of each participant is not to give himself away. This is the main rule.
The game is divided into a conditional day and a conditional night. All close their eyes or put on special blindfolds on their eyes or masks. The host announces that night is falling so that the players in the role of the mafia get to know each other, look at each other, remember each other. Then, according to the announcement of the host, morning comes, and all the inhabitants and the commissar wake up. And the fun begins: all the inhabitants of the city discuss and choose the most suspicious player, in their opinion. The person with the most votes is eliminated from the game. It is not forbidden to say, for example, “I am a commissioner”, but this does not mean at all that this is true, this is an intuitive game. The presenter reveals his card, and everyone becomes aware of the status of "hidden behind bars."
Then night falls again, and the mafia silently, deliberating with gestures, chooses a victim for itself. Then the mafia falls asleep, and the commissioner wakes up, who wants to check one of the participants. He silently indicates to the presenter, he also silently reveals to the commissar the status of a suspect. In the morning it becomes known who was "killed". Further, everything continues until the commissioner catches the whole mafia or the mafia kills the whole city.
The “Mafia” has a lot of different strategies and moves, it does not let you get bored, everyone should try to play at least once. Similar games for a fun company are arranged in bars, cafes. People are specially going to play, meet other people and have a good time.
Outdoor games
Basically, all the people who come to the party do not refuse outdoor games. We will tell you about the most interesting of them.
"Stool"
If the feast begins to be boring, then it's time to remember the fun and moderately active games. For the company of adults at the table, not all options are suitable, after all, people prepared and dressed up, not in order to pop balls of water with their heads, for example. But funny games like "Stool" may well defuse the situation and amuse people of any age. We have been familiar with the essence since childhood - chairs are put in a circle, and there are one less than the number of players. A cheerful crowd moves around the chairs in a circle and, by a whistle or other command, sits down on the chairs. Of course, one will not get it, and, probably, there will be a funny skirmish and pushing each other away from the last free chair. Whoever lacks a chair is eliminated from the game. Continues until there are 2 players and one chair left. There is an alternative - when men sit on chairs, and women should sit on their knees, the loser leaves the game with the chair and the man.
Friendly run
Such games in the company help make friends if the company is unfamiliar. The rules are very simple and consist in reaching the conditional goal the fastest, but not one by one, but with your hands clasped and your back to each other. It is not as simple as it seems, but it is very fun. Fans should cheer their team out loud.
Flying Gait
For some reason, many really cool games for the company are unknown to most. For example, the aforementioned contest. He is very simple, but no less funny. Do not forget to remove the participant in the video so that he later laughs himself. So, the essence is this: a number of bottles are placed in front of a volunteer in a chaotic manner. They blindfold him, and he must go forward from memory without touching the bottles. Of course, the container needs to be removed slowly. When there are no bottles at all, you will see a very funny sight - a crouching tiger or a flying walk, or a dramatic heron ...
"What is our life? Game!"
We deliberately did not divide corporate, anniversary, everyday or New Year's games. The main thing for the company is to have fun and friendly, and this does not depend on what kind of holiday you have outside. Even a weekday and ordinary home gatherings can be made incredibly fun and sincere with the help of a warm party and very simple games. Color your evening, discover new games for the company, gather friends and have fun, it's so easy!
