How To Plan A Game Night With Friends Under $20

by Ken Langston

Games with dice and cards you already have:

  • Liar’s Dice: A classic bluffing game using only 5 dice. Each player rolls their dice and secretly looks at them. Players take turns bidding on what number they rolled the most of, with the loser being the first one to be caught bluffing.
  • Crazy Eights: A shedding game using a standard deck of cards. Players take turns trying to play a card of the same suit or rank as the discard pile. The goal is to get rid of all your cards first.
  • Spoons: A fast-paced card game using a standard deck of cards minus the four aces. Players take turns passing their cards face down to the player next to them. The goal is to collect four of a kind and be the first one to place a spoon in the center of the table.

Board games under $20:

  • Codenames: A popular word association game where two teams compete to guess their secret agents from a grid of words. One player from each team gives one-word clues that can relate to multiple words on the grid. This is a great game for under $20 (https://amzn.to/4f6rFtZ)
  • Forbidden Island: A cooperative game where players work together as adventurers to collect four treasures from a sinking island. This is a good choice for a strategic and suspenseful game night (https://amzn.to/4cXZRGi)
  • Apples to Apples: A party game where players try to match hilarious descriptions to nouns on cards. This is a fun and lighthearted game for a group of friends (https://amzn.to/4cJN9uV)
  • Kosmos The Crew: A cooperative trick-taking card game where players work together on missions in space. This is a good game for people who enjoy strategic challenges (https://amzn.to/3Lr5jFY)

These are just a few ideas to get you started. There are many other great games out there, so feel free to do some research and find one that fits your group’s interests!

Here are some additional tips for planning your game night:

  • Potluck snacks: Ask each friend to bring a snack to share. This is a fun way to try new foods and keep everyone happy.
  • Drinks: Have plenty of drinks on hand, such as water, soda, and juice.
  • Music: Play some background music to create a fun atmosphere.
  • Prizes: Have some small prizes for the winner of each game, or just for participation.

I hope this helps you plan a fun and memorable game night with your friends!
