Teenagers over 13, was looking at cards against humanity, but seems too grown up? Anything similar but safer?

We love Trivial Pursuit.

Kids (14 and 12 ) also love Rush Hour - great for kids who love puzzles, even the 6 year old was playing it with them yesterday, going to put it out on Christmas Day for the extended family (all engineers) while I finalise dinner.

Cranium! You need a decent number of people for teams but it is ENDLESSLY hilarious...

I can't find the thread that had the family friendly version of CAH, grr...
Is CAH THAT bad?

Articulate is great and quick
What about risk? Although can be a bit feel bad

HoundOfTheBasketballs · 07/12/2018 16:52

CAH is excellent. But I would never, even now as an adult, play it with my parents. That would be excruciating.

Unless you feel comfortable making depraved sex jokes with your children, in which case, crack on!

Upsy1981 · 07/12/2018 18:59

Even I won't play CAH and I am not generally prudish!

CaptainsYuleLog · 07/12/2018 19:04

Ticket to Ride. Once played you can never go back.

Can’t beat Articulate imho.
