This is a non competitive game that is more for the fun of the conversation it promotes. It can be part of a planned party with a large group or can be played on the spot while trying to pass time while on a flight with a friend or family member. Either way Fun Party Games for Adults is sure you will love this game.
No materials needed
# of players: 2-20
This game starts by randomly picking a player to pose a question that starts with "would you rather..." It usually ends with 2 options that are embarrassing, gross, scary, horrifying or just plain uncomfortable. The other players must then tell which thing they would rather do and explain why they would rather do that. Clarifying questions can be asked before answering. Once everyone has given their answers and reasons why, someone new will ask a new "would you rather....?" question.
Here are some examples of questions:
Would you rather have your nose grow every time you tell a lie or, always be forced to tell the truth no matter what?
Would you rather be mute or, have to always be talking or making noise?
Would you rather get punched in the gut every 5 minutes for a year or, have to eat a spider every 5 minutes for a year?
Have fun!

Fruit Basket
This is a great family game that will get you laughing! It's great in any setting and with all kinds of groups, it's not difficult and you don't need anything to play. It's a great one for camping trips too!
Materials needed: none
# of people: 4 or more
This game is simple. The players will all sit in a circle. Each player will pick a fruit that they will be identified with. No 2 people can have the same fruit. Once everyone has chosen their fruit and stated it to the group play will start. All that will happen is 1 person is chosen to start and they will say something like "apple calling grape" (apple being their own fruit and grape being another players fruit). Whoever is grape will then say "grape calling kiwi" and kiwi will say "kiwi calling huckleberry" and so on. When it's your turn you can call out any fruit in the circle but your own.
The catch that makes the game funny and challenging is that players must talk with their lips curled over their teeth. No player is ever allowed to show their teeth, even if it is not their turn. It can get pretty hard because it's pretty funny to watch and listen to people talk with their lips curled around their teeth, so when you laugh you have to try and laugh without showing your teeth.
There are 3 ways to get "out"
1. You will be out if you show your teeth at any time.
2. You will be out if you hesitate in calling out another fruit on your turn.
3. You will be out if you call a fruit that none of the players chosen. For example, let's say there are 8 players grape, strawberry, peach, grapefruit, blueberry, banana, apricot and huckleberry. If grapefruit says "grapefruit calling apple" then grapefruit would be out because there is no apple.
The last person left after everyone is out is the winner.
Have fun!

Poison Letter
This game will keep players thinking on their feet. This game is great to play in your living room or around the table with some chips and salsa. Fun Party Games for Adults is sure you will love the game Poison Letter.
Materials: none
# of players: any number but it's best with larger groups
This game is played in rounds. In each round you want to be the last one left who doesn't mess up. The players will take turns picking a "Poison Letter". Each round the players will take turns giving answers within a theme that do not include the "Poison Letter."
The first player to choose the "Poison Letter" starts the round by saying "The Captain doesn't like the letter... What..."
Example: "The Captain doesn't like the letter M. What will he eat for dinner?"
Going in a clockwise direction, starting with the person on the first players left, give answers to the question of things the Captain can eat that don't include the letter M. Some answers could be chicken, french toast, spinach, eggs, corn etc. If anyone takes too long to answer, uses a word that has the "Poison Letter" in it or gives an answer that doesn't fit the theme, they are out for that round. This round continues around the table/room until there is one person left.
Example of Play:
"The Captain doesn't like the letter F, what will he wear?"
"Sandals"
"Pajamas"
"Shorts"
"Flip flops" (this person would be out because they used a word that had the F in it.)
"Palm Tree" (this person would also be out because they said something that does not fit with something you wear.)
Play as many rounds as you like. Whoever wins he most rounds wins the game.
Examples of themes:
"Where does he live"
"What does he plant in his garden"
"What are his hobby's"
"Where does he vacation"
"What will he buy"
You are going to have so much fun playing "Poison Letter"!
