There
are other physical games too such as the one where I was set against
another player and the one who threw a card further won the challenge.
Spoiler here, cards from this game do not travel as far as you’d expect,
especially after some of our players managed to get the card behind
themselves (not naming names!) Other cards are just pure luck like who
has the longest beard, or mind games like having to think of a great
insult for the other players, and be as inventive as possible.
A shared blanket of humor!
Game
Off had challenges for everyone, although I was not very good at many
of them, which disclaimer is totally my fault and not Game Offs! If you
have three or more people and they can read and move and have a sense of
humor you can be playing this simple party game within about 30
seconds. I love the variety in this game one minute I am having to walk
through the office with my eyes closed and attempt to walk in a straight
line, the next I am having a drum off and attempting to drum out a
musical rhythm.
This game is pretty inclusive, after playing in
the office we took it home and played with our family, including kids.
They could easily play for almost every challenge, although we did have
to pick and choose a few of the cards, for instance some of the luck
cards talked about mobile phone numbers, which clearly the kids didn't
have. Likewise the humor in this game can be as smutty as you like so
when we played with kids in our group its all quite slapstick funny,
nice and PG whereas when we played with just adults the banter gets more
blue!
