List of Fun Adult Birthday Party Games
Playing games at your next birthday party is a great way for your friends to get to know each other and share a laugh. There are several group games you can play that will entertain your guests (and guest of honor) and get the party going.
To help make your night one to remember, I’ve pulled together some of my favorite birthday party games for adults.
Best of all, these games are super-easy to plan and you probably already have the supplies on hand. So grab some friends and get ready to enjoy a night full of laughs!
These are some of the best adult birthday party games:
I’m Going To A Bar
This memory game is fun to play after the drinks have been flowing for a while. Guests will go around the circle naming what items they would bring to the bar in alphabetical order. Start with the birthday person. Then each person builds onto the list, but if you forget an item, you’re out. The last person left is the winner!
Junk in the Trunk
In this classic Minute to Win it Game, get ready to shake it to win! This hilarious game will have your guests working hard to jiggle all of the ping pong balls out of the container attached to their waist the fastest. Imagine the moves that will go down in history with this game!
Straight Face
This game of skill is a challenge to see who can read the silliest sentences without cracking a grin. Each player writes a crazy sentence on a slip of paper and adds it to the basket. Players then take turns reading a sentence aloud while trying to not laugh or smile. Anyone who laughs, snickers, or grins is out. You can also up the punishment by making offenders take a shot!
Charades
You can’t go wrong with a fun game of Charades (or Pictionary.) To get things started, use the cards included in the packet for the game. You can also give each of your guests a few minutes to come up with some funny suggestions with blank cards to personalize the game to your friend group. This game is all about creativity and using your imagination, so the more outrageous the charade, the better!
Bite the Bag
Sorta like limbo but not. This is a hilariously funny game that gets worse as the night goes on. Place a brown paper bag on the floor. A player must reach down and pick it up with their mouth. The only thing that is allowed to touch the floor is your feet (no hands, no knees) and the only thing that is allowed to touch the bag is your mouth. After every round, cut off an inch from the top of the bag and play again. This game is like limbo in reverse. How low can you go?
Two Truths and a Lie
This is a great icebreaker game or getting-to-know-you game for early in the night. Pick 3 statements to tell about yourself. Example: “I have two siblings, I’ve been to three continents, and I love cats.” Two should be true; one should be a lie. Everyone else must guess which is the lie. If you’re playing with family or friends, pick obscure details to try to trick each other to make it even more fun.
Scavenger Hunt
If you have some time, do something unusual like a one-hour scavenger hunt. Instead of doing this at home, go around town. Team members will try to find some of the strangest things like a Refrigerator box, coin from 1983, town clock, egg carton, deposit slip, take-out menu, or even a photo of the entire team in a shopping cart.
To help your friends meet new friends, pair up your groups with friends that might not know each other well yet. From the start line to the finish line, the around-town scavenger hunt team bonding will quickly create new friendships and are great ice breakers to the start of the night. Wait until you hear all the stories up on the return of the birthday hunt.
