Party Board Game

PrintNinja recommends keeping the following guidelines in mind when you design a party game.

It’s hard to define a party game, but you know it when you play it. They’re games that are meant to be played in large social gatherings for entertainment – we know it sounds like most games! Some common characteristics are team-based play, easy for players to learn quickly, and a lot of player interaction with each other. Popular party games include Cranium, Taboo and Scattergories. Finishit, outlined below, shows common sizes, material and components found in party games.

We’ve also analyzed board and card games to figure out what makes them work – and how you can apply these principals to your custom game. Check it out!
