5 Awesome Grown-Up Party Games to Try at Your Next Event
Planning a party for adults can be both exciting and challenging. You want to create an atmosphere that’s fun, engaging, and filled with laughter, but sometimes, simply providing great food and drinks isn’t enough. That’s where party games come in! These games can break the ice, ignite conversations, and ensure that everyone has an unforgettable time. Here are five awesome grown-up party games to try at your next event:
Two Truths and a Lie
Perfect for kicking off the party, “Two Truths and a Lie” helps guests get to know each other. Each person states three facts about themselves — two true, one false. The rest of the group guesses which one is the lie. This game is an excellent icebreaker and reveals surprising facts about your friends, setting the stage for a night of laughter.
Charades with a Twist
Charades is a timeless party favorite. To spice it up for grown-ups, add a twist. Create categories like “Famous Movie Scenes,” “Iconic Songs,” or “Celebrity Impressions.” Write these on cards and have players act them out. The challenge? They can only use their bodies — no sounds allowed. This twist adds hilarity and keeps everyone on their toes.
Pictionary (or Drunk Pictionary)
Pictionary is another classic game that gets better with a twist. In “Drunk Pictionary,” players draw while holding a drink. As the night progresses, the drawings get funnier and the guesses wilder. Use a whiteboard or large paper pad for drawing. This game guarantees laughter and showcases your guests’ artistic (or not-so-artistic) talents.
Drop a Hint
To play Drop A Hint, first write a variety of words or phrases on slips of paper and place them in a bowl. Divide the players into teams, with one team member designated as the guesser who cannot see the slips of paper. The other team members take turns drawing a slip and giving a one-word hint to help the guesser identify the word. The guesser has a set time limit, typically 60 seconds, to guess as many words as possible based on these single-word clues. Each correct guess earns the team a point, and the game continues with teams alternating roles until all the slips are used. The team with the most points at the end wins.
Drunk Jenga
Drunk Jenga is an exciting and unpredictable variation of the classic Jenga game, infused with fun drinking challenges. Before the game starts, write different drinking-related rules or challenges on each Jenga block. Then, set up the Jenga tower as usual, with all blocks facing down so the challenges are hidden. After pulling a block, the player must read aloud and perform the challenge before stacking the block on top of the tower. This could involve taking a drink, doing a funny action, or making a rule everyone must follow.
