Ideas for team-based games (61–70) to liven up a party
Ritz Fighter
A popular game for head-to-head battles is Ritz Fighter.
The rules are simple: you stuff Ritz crackers into your mouth all at once, and whoever finishes eating first wins.
Imagine it for a moment—Ritz crackers suck the moisture out of your mouth, right? That difficulty is what makes the game fun.
Try putting about five crackers in your mouth per person as a guideline.
Of course, drinking water partway through is not allowed.
That said, please only try it within a safe and reasonable limit.
Real Escape Game
Escape games, which became popular on smartphones and the web, are brought to life in the real world.
You’re locked in a room, for example, where numerous clues are hidden.
Your team works together to solve the clues and make your escape.
Being physically locked in adds to the thrill, doesn’t it?
Newspaper puzzle
This is a newspaper puzzle where you neatly restore torn newspaper back to its original form.
Fold a single sheet of newspaper four times, then tear it eight times.
Mix the pieces randomly, and at the signal to start, work to reassemble them into the original shape.
If you’re playing with a large group, increase the number of tears to make smaller pieces and raise the difficulty.
Compete to see which team can finish the fastest.
A game where you work together to complete a drawing
This isn’t a typical drawing game where you compete on resemblance.
Instead, it’s a game where you divide up roles and complete a single picture together based on one prompt.
For example, if you’re drawing an anime character, one person does the face, another the hairstyle, and another the body—each part has a different person in charge.
What kind of picture will we end up with? If it turns out even halfway decent, it’ll be a miracle (lol).
In conclusion
We’ve introduced plenty of group-versus-group games that are sure to liven up any entertainment segment or performance.
With a little creativity, even games usually played individually can be turned into team competitions, making things all the more exciting! I hope this article is helpful to organizers who have a lot to prepare.
