Anyone had a good boardgame that's been lots of fun over Christmas - for older teens and adults please.

More of a card game, but Exploding Kittens is a hoot!

Also Taskmaster is good fun.

Oh there are thousands. For gateway games (ie not experienced gamers) go for:

Pandemic
Catan
Munchkins (reccomend the warhammer version over the original)
7 wonders
Sushi go

Pictionary all ages game for great laughs.

We got 'confidence' it's really good, you get a question and then have to write answers within a range .. those on target with lowest range get the points. I would say great for teens

Bells3032 · 27/12/2022 20:04

Also reccomend getting membership to board games arena to try out different games. They have all the instructions on the games too.
