Through trial and error, these are the games we tend to keep coming back to when we have a large group of friends or family or gathering. These are the easiest to explain nd get up and running ASAP as not to lose the attention/interest of guests trying to over explain complicated rules. This allows the group to monitor how the rules are followed, instead of having to assign a referee who understands all the potential nuances. That way, everyone gets equal play time and way less stress. Not to mention, these could also be turned into a version of play where liquid courage is involved as either a bonus or a consequence for those aged 21+. When we attempt to learn a more difficult game (like Wingspan), we tend to always end up playing one of these to close out the night. Hope you enjoy the giggles these produce as much as we do!
