Party games for men that are sure to liven things up
YouTubers have now made it onto the list of jobs even elementary school kids look up to.
We’ve gathered party games that even those YouTubers would get excited about.
They’re all easy, no-prep games, so I think you’ll be able to try them out with no trouble.
Top 10 Party Games That Men Will Love
Tasting Game
Kirin, Asahi, Suntory—just hearing those names is irresistible to beer lovers, right? So instead of a sake tasting, how about a beer tasting or even a juice tasting competition to liven things up? Even the same orange juice can taste subtly different depending on the brand.
And that canned coffee you sip without thinking—if you taste it seriously, you’ll find it’s completely different from others.
At a party with lots of dishes, you could even do blindfolded tastings and try to guess the foods—that’s sure to get everyone excited.
If you usually act like a gourmet, make sure not to show any uncool moments!
The game where you lose if you pick the same as someone else
It’s a game where you try to give an answer to a prompt that no one else gives.
Anyone whose answer overlaps with someone else’s is eliminated, and the last person remaining typically gets a prize, which makes it exciting.
Even if you end up matching with someone, it can be fun to discover unexpected commonalities.
Dizzy Bat Gesture Game
It’s a combination of the dizzy-bat game and charades.
Can you really guess the gestures when the person is wobbling on their feet!? If you’re confident in your sense of balance, give it a try!
Jenga
Speaking of Jenga, it’s a classic party game.
These days, not only the regular Jenga but also variations—like ones combined with UNO or blocks that have prompts you must do when you pull them—are widely sold.
Choosing a version that suits your group will make things even more exciting.
Tasting/Comparative testing of XX
Anything works, but how about a tasting/guessing game? For example, like in the video, you could guess the flavor of Jagarico, or a game where you guess the chocolate brand would be fun too.
If you use a blindfold, it’s surprisingly hard to tell and it really livens things up.
Clash! Two-Person Haori (Nininbaori)
It’s the classic two-person haori act.
This time, we’ve made it more interesting by turning it into a head-to-head challenge.
Two or more people do the two-person haori, and the one that’s funnier and more successful wins.
I think it will be a hit as a game.
Excruciating Pain! Foot Reflexology! Hand-Pressed Sumo (Thumb Wrestling)
This is a game where you play the classic “hand push sumo” on top of a floor covered with reflexology mats.
Here’s how it works: lay out the reflexology mats.
Participants enter the mat barefoot and, with their feet together, push their opponent with their hands.
If one foot steps off the mat or you fall over, you lose.
That part is the same as regular hand push sumo.
And it’s not just fun one-on-one—playing with three people at once is guaranteed to get everyone hyped!
Pepper Police Chief Game
https://www.tiktok.com/@eschiba/video/7244434999263366408This is a game inspired by the choreography of Pink Lady’s classic song “Pepper Keibu.” Form a circle, sing, and perform the opening choreography—the layered voices and movements build a great sense of unity.
Each person chooses either the pattern where you pull your right hand or the one where you don’t.
If the two people facing each other match, they can leave the circle; the group repeats the song’s opening over and over until only one person remains.
The last person left is the loser and ends by singing the song’s closing part alone, somewhat sadly.
The game is designed for an odd number of players, and the more participants there are, the harder it becomes to match.
10-times quiz game
It’s a game where you say a specified word 10 times and then answer the question that follows without falling for the trick.
For example, if you say “prince” 10 times and then get the question, “What do you put on after shampoo?” you might be tempted to answer “rinse,” but the trick answer is actually “hot water”! This sounds like it would be a hit!
Umaibō Sommelier
Umaibo, which you can buy at convenience stores and the like, comes in many varieties and is something most people have tried at least once.
This is a game where you eat Umaibo while blindfolded and guess the flavor! It’s a low-budget, easy game to play.
People who often eat Umaibo might have an advantage!?
