Perpetual Commotion, Taboo, and QUELF!
These games (Perpetual Commotion, Taboo, and Quelf) are super fun. Perpetual Commotion is a high speed card game where you get a deck of cards and have to get rid of the whole deck by laying down a start card, then go from 1-12, and ending with a stop card.
Taboo is one of my favorite games in the world! Here's how it's played:
All the players are divided into two teams, the first player has a pile of cards and on theses cards will be a word at the top.
The player has to get their team mates to guess what that word is. Here's the catch- there's a list of closely related words below it that you can't say!
You have until the sand timer runs out to get as many cards done as you can. Every guessed word is one point and every time you say one of those list of words, that's a negative.
SOMETIMES it's really difficult but ALL THE TIME it's fun.
Quelf is a game for a good group of friends. In this game, you have to do all sorts of crazy things to go along the board.
I once had to talk like a pirate the whole game. One guy had to dance like a ballerina haha. It's the best ice breaker game that I know.
Hope these help start some fun!!
