Adult Board game ideas please

[ItsReallyOnlyMe]

Can I please have your ideas for board games for adults on Christmas Day evening. We like Cards against Humanity, but that's been done a few times. It doesn't have to be outrageous (like CAH) but anything that will produce a laugh would be good ! There will be 5 of us. Thanks !

If you want to be slightly energetic there is The Crystal Maze game, where there are some physical challenges as well as less physical ones. Definitely makes you laugh, especially if some drink may have been consumed!

Mousy mousy is an old childhood favourite that becomes very animated.
Articulate?
Charades?

If you know each other well....twister!

Pandemic - not funny though!

We love articulate

What do you meme

Monopoly deal (card game), causes multiple tantrums and false confidence in adults.

Great British train game, another one where one card can destroy someone’s game.

Obama Llama!

We love dobble!!

Monopoly cheat version, great if a few of you and there are drinks involved. I played it with my dp and it was good but would be so much better with a group!

Codenames is absolutely brilliant, award winning and gets very tense!

Where in the World tests your knowledge of places across the globe.
I love it!
We met the creator in John Lewis last Christmas and I was really pleased. Poor man!

Ticket to ride is our favourite. We also like pandemic. Neither are funny though!

Try "shout!". Good fun with a few glasses of wine.

Where in the World is our favourite as well. Even if you consider yourself a geography expert (me) you easily get caught out on the fiendish squares of the world map! So suitable for everyone. Also love Articulate, Mapominoes, Pictionary (hilarious),

Balderdash - you are given an obscure word and you each have to come up with a meaning for it. Or are given a title of obscure film/book and have to come up with a plot. They are all read out by by one person, along with with the correct answer, so you don't know who's is who. Then you vote which one is correct. Very funny.

Absolute Balderdash

Brilliant idea - thanks all !

Chain reaction is hilarious especially if you've had. A few to drink

Twister? 🤪

Telestrations is very good and we always have a good laugh playing it.

The Cube is brilliant! And Dobble (although it looks like a kid's game) is funny, the right kind of game aggressive and good fun

Does anyone know which is the one where you get an obscure phrase, draw it in a notebook, pass round in a sort of cross between Chinese whispers and Pictionary?

One of the funniest ones I’ve ever played as an adult but I don’t know what it’s called!

Ooh I think the game whose name I’d forgotten was Telestrations, mentioned earlier. I’d recommend it!

Munchkin? Lots of sending up of fantasy tropes and lots of opportunities to do silly/ nasty things to sabotage your opponents chances!
