Games for a company without equipment. Interesting comic competitions at the table for a fun company

Alexandra Savina

In autumn we want to stay at home more and more, and the most common entertainment is home parties and get-togethers with friends. We have collected ten not the most famous games for company (alcoholic and otherwise), most of which require only paper and pen. We are sure they will make cold autumn days more fun.

Boom

You will need: Paper and pen, timer

How to play: You can buy the board game “Boom”, or you can come up with cards for it yourself. Before the game starts, each player writes their names on several paper cards. famous people(it’s better to choose celebrities who are well known to everyone present - it’s easier and more fun). The players are then divided into teams; The team is given a minute to make one move. In the first round, players need to take cards from the deck and explain to the other team members who they are talking about without saying the name of the celebrity - they get as many points as they can guess the names. When all the cards are gone, they are put back into the deck and the second round begins: now the names of the celebrities must be explained in pantomime. In the third round, names must be explained in one word. The advantage of the game is that all players are involved in it: even if it is not your turn, you need to listen carefully, because the cards are repeated.

Winking Killer

You will need: Deck of cards or paper and pen

How to play: At the beginning of the game, you need to distribute the roles and choose who will be the killer - for this you can use several cards according to the number of players (the one who draws the ace of spades becomes the killer) or write the roles on pieces of paper. Players draw a card or piece of paper without showing it to others and sit in a circle. The killer's task is to discreetly wink at other players: the one he winks at “dies.” The task of the other players is to catch the killer: at any time in the game they can accuse someone. If the killer's name is called correctly, he loses; if the player makes a mistake and calls the name of an innocent person, he also “dies.” If the killer manages to eliminate all but the last player from the game, he wins (and this is much more difficult than it seems).

21

You will need: Alcohol

How to play: Not the easiest, but very fun drinking game, different variants the rules of which are detailed in Wikipedia. Players stand in a circle and take turns counting to 21. According to one of the most common variants of the rules, players can count one, two or three numbers. If the player names one number, the game continues in the same direction as before (for example, the person to the right of the player counts further). If he calls two numbers, the game changes direction (in our example, the next number is called by the person to the left of the player). If a person calls three numbers, the game continues in the same direction as before, but the player standing next to the counter misses a turn.

The player who must say the number 21 loses, and must also drink as punishment - and also come up with another one. additional rule(for example, all numbers that are multiples of three must be pronounced in English, or instead of the number 5, you need to wink at one of the players). Anyone who makes mistakes, says the wrong numbers, gets confused by the new rules and is too slow must also drink as punishment. You can continue the game until you come up with your own rule for each number - or until you get tired of drinking.

Insert phrase

You will need: Paper and pen

How to play: A game that can be played throughout the evening. Give each guest a piece of paper with pre-prepared phrases (for example, “I’m thinking about running a marathon,” “Game of Thrones taught me a lot,” “What do you think of the latest Yeezy collection?”) when they come to your house. The players’ task is to, without showing their proposal to others, quietly insert it into a normal conversation. After a player says his phrase, he must wait five minutes so that others have a chance to figure him out. If during this time the person is not caught, then he receives a prize. This game also has an alcohol version: in this case, if someone was able to successfully insert their phrase into the conversation, everyone else drinks. If someone catches you using a pre-prepared phrase, you will have to drink.

Jellyfish

You will need: Alcoholic jelly or shots

How to play: Players sit in a circle at a table laden with glasses of alcohol (calculate your strength when choosing a drink!) or glasses of alcoholic jelly. At the beginning of the game, everyone looks down, and then, on the count of three, they look up and look at the other player. If you are looking at someone who is not looking at you, you are lucky; if you make eye contact, you need to shout, “Medusa!” - and drink a shot. And so on until the alcohol runs out - or you just get tired of it.

Sing Song Ping Pong

You will need: Device that plays music (but not required)

How to play: A game that appeared and became popular thanks to the film " Perfect voice" It can be played either in teams or individually. In order to achieve success in the game, you need to be able to improvise well - but it is not at all necessary to be able to sing professionally, the main thing is not to be shy. The player or team making the first move begins to sing any song (you can simply turn on the first song in the player). The remaining participants can at any time interrupt the one who is currently singing and sing another song, starting with the word that appears in the text of the first, and so on. The round continues until one of the players manages to sing his song to the end - in this case he gets a point. The game can continue until someone scores 5-10 points, depending on how long it takes you to complete one round. If desired, the game can be complicated and played in English.

Donkey

You will need: Paper and pen, alcohol (optional)

How to play: This is a drinking game, but you don't have to drink - you can assign a different penalty instead. Before the game starts, each participant receives a piece of paper on which they must write some task. All pieces of paper are put into a hat or box; Players take turns drawing one at a time, without showing it to the others. After this, the players begin to deal with their tasks one by one. Everyone has a choice: you can complete the task, you can exchange with someone who has not yet completed theirs (at the same time, you cannot discuss what task someone has), or refuse to complete the task and drink - or receive another established fine. If you get your own task, you cannot exchange it with others - you will have to complete it or drink it.

Two truths and one lie

You will need: Paper and pen (but not required)

How to play: Each player needs to come up with three sentences about themselves - two true and one false. Players take turns reading statements about themselves (in any order), and the rest need to determine what is true and what is false. After the others vote, the player tells how everything really is. The success of the game largely depends on how creatively the participants approach it - but it works well in unfamiliar company.

Firecracker

You will need: Hats, paper crowns or party hats

How to play: The good thing about this game is that you can play it discreetly throughout the evening - especially if you are having dinner at the same table. It got its name from the popular Christmas crackers in the UK and some other countries, which contain a small prize and a paper crown. Players put on hats or any other headgear, and the leader announces that all players must take them off after he takes off his. The presenter should not take off his hat immediately, but after some time, when the players are distracted and perhaps forget that the game is still going on. The one who takes off his hat last loses.

birds of a feather flock together

You will need: Paper and pen for each player

How to play: Before the game starts, the host must come up with ten categories (for example, “Silent Film Actresses,” “ Alcoholic cocktails", "Musicians of the 80s"). Play better big company, and the players must split into two teams. The presenter announces each category in turn, and the participants must write the first three words or names that come to mind that fit it. There is no point in trying to be more original than everyone else: points are awarded for words written by several people from the team. For example, a word written by three team members can be awarded three points, a word written by four team members can be awarded four points, and so on. The team with the most points wins.

When I got married and I had my own home, where I became a full-fledged mistress, I was faced with a problem: how to entertain guests when they gather at our place for some holiday. After all, an ordinary feast - we drank, ate, drank, ate, drank again... - it’s so boring!

So I decided to urgently come up with something so that each celebration would be memorable and not similar to the previous one. I had to urgently buy various books on this topic and study the Internet.

As a result, I got a whole collection of sociable games. Moreover, every time I find something new and, naturally, I use this new product at the first opportunity.

Of course, not a single holiday goes by without karaoke and drinking songs, and as an addition to this (and a surprise for some guests, although many are already accustomed to the fact that you won’t get bored with us), we play various games.

Depending on the company we gather (sometimes just young people, and sometimes the older generation), I think through the game scenario in advance. This is done so that absolutely ALL guests can take part in the fun, and so that no one gets bored.

For some games you need to prepare props in advance, and it’s also very good if you have some funny souvenirs for the winners.

Yes, by the way, you shouldn’t play all the games at once. It's best if you take breaks (for example, it's time to serve hot food or sing a song). Otherwise, your guests will quickly get tired and everyone will no longer be interested and reluctant to play anything else.

“Table games” or I also call them “Warm-up games”. These games are best played at the beginning of the celebration, when everyone is sitting at the table, still sober :)

1. "Bowl of Hop"

This game is as follows: everyone sitting at the table passes a glass around in a circle, into which everyone pours a little of some drink (vodka, juice, wine, brine, etc.). Anyone whose glass is filled to the brim so that there is nowhere else to pour must say a toast and drink the contents of this glass to the bottom. The most important thing is that the glass is not very large, otherwise a person simply will not be able to drink it, because there will be a “hot” mixture. And if he drinks, then where can he look for this guest? :)

2. “Make your neighbor laugh”

Choose a host from among the guests (or take on this role yourself). His task is to perform such a funny action with his neighbor on the table (on the right or on the left) that could make someone present laugh. For example, the leader may grab his neighbor by the nose. Everyone else in the circle must repeat this action after him (with their neighbor, respectively). When the circle is closed, the leader again takes his neighbor, for example, by the ear or leg, etc. The rest repeat again. Those who laugh leave the circle. And the winner will be the one who remains alone.

3. “The main thing is that the suit fits.”

For this game you will need a medium sized box. It is desirable that it closes, but if this is a problem, then you can cut a hole in it on the side so that your hand can fit through. And if there is no box, then you can replace it with an opaque bag or bag. Then, items of clothing such as, for example, long johns, briefs and bras are placed in a box (bag). large sizes, a clown's nose, and other things that might make you laugh. That's it, the props are ready.

Next, when the guests relax a little and feel at home with you, you can start playing: the guests are sitting at the table, you tell them that many could use updating their wardrobe, and take a box (bag) with funny things. Then, while the music is playing, the box (package) is passed from one guest to another, but as soon as the music stops, the guest in whose hands the box (package) is must, without looking into it, take out some thing from there and put it on himself and don't take it off until the game is over. The duration of the game depends on the number of items in the box. As a result, all the guests will have an outfit that will make you laugh!

4. “And in my pants...”

This game is for those who are not shy. Before the game (or rather, before the party starts), you will need to make the following props: cut out interesting headlines from magazines and newspapers (for example, “The Iron Horse,” “Down and Feathers,” “Cat and Mouse,” etc.) . And put them in an envelope. Then, when you decide that it’s time to play, you run this envelope in a circle. The one who accepts the envelope must say loudly “And in my pants...”, take out a clipping from the envelope and read it out loud. The more interesting and funny the clippings are, the more fun it will be to play.

By the way, a joke on the topic:

Wife:
- Give me money for a bra.
Husband:
- For what? You have nothing to put there!
Wife:
- You're wearing panties!

The following games are from the series “While everyone is still on their feet,” that is, when all the guests have already become fully emboldened and “warmed up”:

1. “The Wall of China” or “Who has it longer.”

This game is good to play where there is enough space and there are at least 4 participants. You will need to create two teams: one with men, the other with women. At your signal, the players of each team begin to take off their clothes (whatever they want) and lay out the removed items of clothing in one line. Each team, accordingly, has its own line. The team with the longest line wins.

2. "Sweetie"

This game is best to play married couples and well-known friends. A victim (preferably a man) is selected and blindfolded. Then he (she) is informed that he (s) must, without using his hands, find the candy in the lips of the woman (man) lying on the sofa. The trick is that if the victim is a man, then it is not the woman who lies down on the sofa (as the victim is told), but the man. Likewise with the victim – a woman. But it's more fun with a man. It is not possible to describe here the actions that the victim takes when trying to find the candy. This is a must see! :)

3. "Spiritometer".

With this game you can determine which of the men is more drunk. To do this, you must draw a scale in advance on a large sheet of Whatman paper, where the degrees are indicated in increasing order - 20, 30, 40. Arrange the degrees like this: at the very top you should have smaller ones, and at the bottom - larger degrees. This Whatman paper with a drawn scale can be mounted on the wall, but not very high from the floor. Then, the men are given felt-tip pens, and their task is to bend down, reaching out to the “Spiritometer” between their legs, and mark the degrees on the scale with a felt-tip pen. And since each of them wants to be more sober than the other, they will stretch their hand higher in order to put a mark on a lower degree. The spectacle is indescribable!

4. "Kangaroo".

Here you will need to take another presenter to help you. Then, choose a volunteer. Your assistant takes him away and explains that he will have to imitate a kangaroo with gestures, facial expressions, etc., but without making a sound, and everyone else must guess what kind of animal he is showing. And at this time you tell the other guests that now the victim will show a kangaroo, but everyone must pretend that they do not understand what kind of animal is being shown to them. It is necessary to name any other animals, but not kangaroos. It should be something like: “Oh, so it’s jumping! So. It's probably a rabbit. No?! Strange, well then it’s a monkey.” After 5 minutes, the simulator will really resemble an enraged kangaroo.

5. “Where am I?”

For this game you will need to prepare in advance one or more signs with inscriptions, such as: “Toilet”, “Shower”, “ Kindergarten", "Store", etc. The participant is seated with his back to everyone, and a sign prepared by you in advance with the inscription is attached to his back. The rest of the guests should ask him questions, for example: “Why do you go there, how often, etc.” The player must, without knowing what is written on the sign hanging on him, answer these questions.

6. "Maternity hospital"

Here two people are selected. One plays the role of a wife who has just given birth, and the other - her faithful husband. The husband’s task is to ask everything about the child in as much detail as possible, and the wife’s task is to explain all this to her husband with signs, since the thick double glass of the hospital room does not let sounds outside. The main thing is to ask unexpected and varied questions.

7. "Kiss"

The game will require as many participants as possible, minimum 4. All participants stand in a circle. Someone alone stands in the center, this is the leader. Then everyone starts moving: the circle rotates in one direction, the one in the center rotates in the other. The center must be blindfolded. Everyone is singing:

A matryoshka walked along the path,
Lost two earrings
Two earrings, two rings,
Kiss, girl, well done!

WITH last words everyone stops. A pair is selected according to the principle: the leader and the one (or the one) in front of him. Then the issue of compatibility is resolved. They stand with their backs to each other and, on the count of three, turn their heads left or right; if the sides match, then the lucky ones kiss!

8. “Oh, these legs!”

This game is for groups of friends. To play you need 4-5 people. Ladies sit on chairs in the room. A volunteer is selected from among the men, he must remember where, among the ladies sitting on the chairs, his wife (friend, acquaintance) is, then he is taken to another room, where he is tightly blindfolded. At this time, all the women change seats, and a couple more men join them. Everyone bares one leg (just above the knees) and lets in a man with a bandage. He squats, taking turns touching everyone's bare leg with Kooks, and must recognize his other half. Men can wear a stocking on their leg for camouflage.

9. "Drawers"

The leader calls two or three pairs of players. The players of each pair sit at the table next to each other. One is blindfolded, a sheet of paper is placed in front of him and a pen or pencil is given in his hand. Everyone else present gives each pair a task - what to draw. The player in each pair, who is not blindfolded, carefully watches what his neighbor is drawing and guides him, indicating where to point the pen and in which direction. He listens and draws what he is told. It turns out very funny. The couple that completes the drawing faster and better wins.

A presenter and a volunteer are selected from the guests. The volunteer is seated on a chair and blindfolded. The presenter begins to point to the participants one by one and ask the question: “Is it?” The one whom the volunteer chooses to become the “kisser”. Then the presenter, pointing in any order to the lips, cheek, forehead, nose, chin, as much as the imagination allows, asks the question: “Here?” - until he receives an affirmative answer from the volunteer. Continuing, the presenter shows all possible quantities on his fingers and asks the volunteer: “How many?” Having received consent, the presenter makes a “sentence” chosen by the volunteer himself - “it” kisses you, for example, on the forehead 5 times. After the end of the process, the volunteer must guess who kissed him. If he guessed correctly, then the one identified takes his place, but if not, then the game resumes with the same volunteer. If a volunteer does not guess three times in a row, then he takes the place of the leader.

11. “Sweet Tooth Drum”

To play you will need a bag of sucking candies (for example, “Barberry”). 2 people are selected from the company. They begin to take turns taking candy from the bag (in the hands of the leader), putting it in their mouth (swallowing is not allowed) and after each candy they call their opponent “Sweet Tooth Drum.” Whoever stuffs the most candy into his mouth and at the same time clearly says the magic phrase will win. It must be said that the game usually takes place to the cheerful shouts and whoops of the spectators, and the sounds made by the participants in the game lead the audience to complete delight!

Based on materials from the book “Games for a Drunk Company”
