Birthday party games to get everyone hyped [Lively and fun birthday bash]

Pie Tower Battle

Raise the excitement sky-high! A mega pie tower—and... a punishment game! [Banquet games, party games, year-end parties, after-parties!]

Squeeze the pie-throwing cream sold at variety shops onto a paper plate, and whoever can build a taller tower within the time limit wins.

The loser gets the pie thrown at them as a penalty.

It’s also fun to try sabotage—like blowing on your opponent’s pie to make it collapse—while carefully stacking your own tower higher without knocking it over!

two-person robe (Nininbaori): a comedic act where two people share one kimono-like garment, with the rear person acting as the arms for the front person

Japanese Party Act: 'Ninin Baori'

It’s the Japanese traditional performance called “Nininbaori” (two-person haori).

Two people wear one large haori together: the person in back sticks their hands out through the sleeves, while the person in front pokes their head out.

The person in back feeds the person in front and it usually turns into a hilarious mess.

The messier it gets, the more exciting it is!

Spit it out! Ping-Pong

To the limits of your lung capacity! Blow them out! Ping-Pong Balls [Party Games for Banquets, Parties, Year-End Gatherings, and After-Parties!]

It’s a game where you use only your own breath to blow a ping-pong ball out of a bowl.

Since it tests your lung capacity, if you blow too hard, you might choke and end up suffering—making it a bit of a self-sabotage game.

Aim for victory by judging the right spot and angle to blow from.

Zabuton stacking showdown

Tsumu-Tsumu Cushion [Party Game / Banquet Game]

This is done in pairs.

One person sits in seiza, and the other slides a cushion underneath during the moment the seated person jumps.

You compete to see how many cushions you can stack.

Making it a team competition could really liven things up.

The balance of the person in seiza is key.

near baseball

Slug it! Close-Quarters Baseball [Party Game, Drinking Party, Year-End Party, After-Party!]

We’ll play baseball using a balloon as the ball, and we’ll do it from a close distance of about two meters.

Because the balloon is so light and it’s hard for both sides to get the timing right, the growing frustration of not being able to do it well becomes part of the fun.

It seems like it would be even more enjoyable with more people.

Party Roulette

We played Party Roulette 21 with four people and it was hilarious!!!

Party roulette sold at places that carry party goods, like Don Quijote.

It seems there are plenty of types, such as a party version for banquets or for mixers.

The rules are simple: spin the roulette and do what it says.

There are penalty-style challenges too, so it gets everyone excited and on edge.

Mystery Box

After-Party/Year-End Party Game Reference Video Vol. 20: “Mystery Box Game” | For After-Party and Year-End Party Prizes, go with Prize King

It’s a game where you make holes on both sides of a box, put your hands in, and guess what’s inside using only touch.

If you keep the front of the box visible, others can see what’s inside, which makes it more exciting.

How about having the birthday person play it and making the items inside the presents? I think it would go over well.
