Do you love the idea of a night out with friends and an ice-cold beer but feel intimidated by the ‘game’ expectations? You don’t need to be a master strategist or genius Tinkerer to have a great time — all you need is some creative, brain stimulating activities that are so much fun, your crew won’t even realize they’re playing games! Whether your group is grabbing dinner together or planning on partying hard until closing time, here are some entertaining options perfect for an unforgettable evening. So break out the brews, grab your pals and get ready for laughs ’til the wee hours as we explore just what type of fantastic games there are when it comes to having that delicious ale with cherished company.
Beer pong is a classic choice when it comes to drinking games. The game involves two teams of two and ten cups arranged in a triangle at each end of the table. Each team takes turns to throw a ping pong ball into their opponent’s cups. If they land it, the other team has to drink the beer in that cup. The first team to sink all of their opponents’ cups is the winner!
Cards Against Humanity is another fantastic drinking game for a night out with friends and beer. This irreverently funny card game requires each player to fill in missing words or phrases from sentences that are often explicit or offensive in nature. Players must compete against each other for points as they try and come up with snarky answers that are funnier, more outrageous or just plain odd than their competitors’. The player with the most points at the end of the game is declared the winner!
Jenga is one fun game that can be tricky to master but easy enough for anyone to play! All you need are 54 wooden blocks, which will be placed into a tower on top of each other. Players then take turns removing blocks from wherever they please and placing them on top in an attempt not to collapse the tower. It’s a great party game because it gets more intense and challenging as fewer pieces remain.
Connect Four is another simple yet fun game perfect for nights spent with friends and beer. Just like Jenga, all you need for this game is some wooden pieces – 42 checkers-style discs – which can be placed into four different columns at once by two players taking turns against each other. The aim? To get four consecutive checkers in different columns before your opponent does – leading you straight toward victory!
Twister is not only fun but also quite physical; so, if you’re looking for an active night out with friends then this could be your go-to competition! Up four players take turns spinning a wheel which features four colored circles, hoping that when it lands, their hand (or foot!) will match up with one of said circles’ color – all while ensuring they don’t topple over or fall off their mat as they prepare themselves on where to place themselves next!
Last but certainly not least there’s Charades; where theatrics and quick thinking come together perfectly over rounds filled with laughter and exciting moments as each team guesses correctly what’s being acted out! All you need here are a few pieces of paper, something to write on them – whether pictures or words –and buckets of enthusiasm as you prepare your clues about what movie scene or scene from literature should your teammates guess next.
In conclusion, a night out with friends and beer is the perfect recipe for fun. Whether it’s playing traditional favorites such as beer pong, Cards Against Humanity, Jenga, Connect Four, Twister or Charades, or just talking over some food and drinks; friends should take full advantage of the opportunity to step away from the day-to-day grind and breathe in a few well-deserved laughs. Provoke your inner child with board games perfect for a night out!
