If you love getting together with your family or friends to play some board games, you know all about how fun it can be to introduce a new game to the group. There's always someone who can't get their head around the rules, and watching everyone slowly getting the hang of it and falling in love with your game is a moment like no other.
But, after playing these new games for so long, they eventually lose their novelty and appeal. Usually, they will be put to bed for a while until someone mentions it again in the future.
So, while you're waiting for everyone to get excited about replaying a game, it's always a good idea to have some new ones up your sleeve that they can all get excited about.
Some of my favourite card games that can add a mass of entertainment to any crowd include:
The Hollow Woods Storytelling Card Game
If your friend group loves games like Mafia and Dungeons and Dragons, this new and exciting storytelling card game is just what you need to deeply immerse yourself in a new game.
Simply layout your cards, turn them over and watch the story unfold. Will you be fortunate enough to survive the wrath of the fire-breathing dragon? Or perhaps you will ride into the sunset on a unicorn. Regardless, when this game is involved, your imagination will run loose.
With over 2.4 quintillion combinations available, this game's novelty won't wear out so quickly and will be a favourite among the game night.
Just like regular rock, paper scissors, but so much more intense. This design-inspired game requires you to get the right hand to dominate the game and claim the victory you deserve.
You can play best out of three, elimination rounds and even place bets on the game to spice it up. The options are unlimited with this card game, making it one that every household needs, especially if you want a game that can be played quickly.
Do you and your friends know everything there is to know about the celebrities and figureheads of society?
Ridley's Who Am I will put your knowledge to the test by asking out-of-the-box questions that only celebrity buffs would know the answer for. This game is perfect for testing those who claim they know more than you and can get competitive, so make sure all breakables are as far away as possible!
We don't want anyone jumping up on a table and breaking something.
