The most memorable board gaming moments are the ones that make you laugh, whether from a silly drawing or an absurd combination of cards. In our experience, the funniest boa??rd games are those that lean into the realm of complete ridiculousness while giving the players a chance to be creative. Below you'll find our picks for the best comedy tabletop games. We can pretty much guarantee that they will all make everyone at your party or game night laugh hysterically.

10. Munchkin

Delving into dungeons, gathering loot, and slaying dragons might sound like serious business, but in Munchkin, they all become a hilarious experience instead. The game’s ridiculous design and goofy artw??ork work best for those who are closely familiar with fantasy gaming tropes, but can still make just about anyone laugh. So put on the kneepads of allure and the boots of butt-kicking, equip the unnatural axe extension, and prepare to face the net troll.

9. Cards Against Humanity

This classic raunchy card game might be a tad overplayed these days, but it still deserves a place on this list. It brings about some of the most ridiculously funny discussions, and the card combinations always offer comedy that feels like it’s coming out of left field. The game’s expansions ensure that there’s no shorta?ge of obscene nonsense- even for the players who have already seen all the classic card combos. 

8. Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza

For those seeking a more family-friendly comedy game night, Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza might be just the ticket. Don’t get too distracted by the cute and funny art during the game- you’ll need to pay close attention to wha??t card is being played. If that card matches the word that the player announces that turn, you’ll need to slap your hand down on the pile before anyone else in order to claim the cards. There are also some fun extra action cards such as the groundhog and the gorilla that will keep you on your toes.

7. UNO Show ‘Em No Mercy

Perhaps the funniest part of classic UNO is frustrating the person sitting beside them and making them pick up a bunch of cards when they thought they were getting close to victory. UNO Show ‘Em No Mercy takes that comedic? moment and puts?? it on center stage. Instead of drawing four cards, now you can make your neighbor draw 10. Instead of skipping one player, you can skip everyone. It’s so ruthless and nonsensical that it somehow becomes even funnier than ever.

6. One Night Ultimate Werewolf

One Night Ultimate Werewolf is a game of secret roles in which one or more of the people in your village is secretly a werewolf. Baseless accusations, lying to your friends, and loudly proclaiming your innocence are of course all essential i?f you want to emerge victorious. It’s easy for anyone to pi??ck up and learn, but the closer the group, the more comedic the game becomes.

5. Wavelength

Wavelength doesn’t always have to be a comedy experience, but when it’s funny, it’s really funny. One player will have a dial on which a needle is pointing to a specific location, and everyone else will try to read their mind to find the needle’s exact position. Clues are? given using cards with binaries on them, such as “dictatorship/democracy�or “not huggable/huggable� and the clue giver will need to pick a w??ord related to these spectrums that moves the other players in the right direction.  

4. Balderdash

Balderdash is a classic board game that’s popular for good reason- it’s quick, acce??ssible, and endlessly comedic. Each round, one of the players will receive a complex word and its definition, and will have to come up with a fake definition for the word that sounds believable. Then, they read both their own definition and the real one aloud. The other players then have to guess which definition is the real one. Successful bluffs and correct guesses both merit points.

3. Snake Oil

Snake Oil is a party game that pits rival merchants against one ??another in the Old West. At the beginning of the game you are dealt a hand of cards with words that you’ll need to combine into a silly yet somehow marketable product. Then, it’s your job to sell your snake oil to the round’s buying player with a 30 second pitch. The game supports up to 10 players, and we’ve noticed on this occasion in particular, it’s the more the merrier. 

2. Telestrations

Telestrations is like Pictionary but with a significantly more engaging twist. You’ll start out by drawing a word as per usual, and then pass the drawing over to the next player- but this time without anyone else seeing it. That person has to guess what it is, and then pass their guess over to the next player, who in turn draws that guess. It effectively becomes a telephone game in which the changes are evident in everyone’s silly sketches. Beyond the comedy, it’s also one of the best party board games for adults that we’ve ever played.

1. Monikers

Monikers is a hilarious, easy to play charades-like card game that just about everyone will enjoy (though we’ll note it’s really best for 18+). You’ll get a hand of cards with famous celebrities, historical figures, and fictional characters. In the first? round, you can act and give clues, but ??you can’t say the actual name on the card. In the second round, you can only say one word. In the third round, it’s all up to your charades skills. Good luck acting out "Donald Trump's hands". It’s guaranteed to be insanely funny no matter what, and for that reason, it’s at the top of our list. It’s also perfect for just about any group size, welcoming anywhere from 4-16 players.

Whether at a dinner party with friends or a weekend get-together with your family, there’s no denying that board games are a great way to bring people together. A little bit of friendly competition n??ever hurt anyone, right? In this list, we’re highlighting a fantastic selection of party board games for adults that are easy to learn and sure to be a hit the next time you’re hosting.

1. Skull

Skull is an exciting game of bluffing, poker-faced plays, and predicting what’s going on in your opponents�heads. Everyone takes turns secretly placing either a rose or skull t??oken facedown in a pile at the center of the table. Then, one of the players will guess how many tokens they can turn over from the pile without hitting a skull, while the others can bid to flip over a higher number of tokens- if they dare. When you accidentally flip a skull token, you lose the round and one of your tokens, which makes bluffing more challenging.

2. Bang!

The classic card game Bang! takes your gaming group on a trip to the Wild West, where you’ll each secretly take on the role of an outlaw, renegade, deputy, or sheriff. Saddle up your steed, grab your Remington, and dodge bullets in a bid to be one of the last players standing. In my experience, the g??ame works best with either six or seven people at the table, though you can also play with as few as four and still have a great time.

3. Deception: Murder in Hong Kong

Murder in Hong Kong is the perfect party game for fans of the mystery genre. As a detective, you’ll need to listen to the witness, analyze a wide body of evidence, and piece together clues to find out which of the other players at the table is secretly a killer. If you’re the murderer or their accomplice, you’ll need to divert suspicion from yourself, but without making it obvious that you’re doing so. Murder in Hong Kong is also one ??of the best board games for big groups, supporting up to 12 players.

4. 7 Wonders

As the leader of an ancient civilization, you’ll need to gather resources, establish trade routes, build monuments, and fight wars, all in the name of development and progress. The engine-building mechanics of the game depend not just on your cards but on the players to your immediate left and right. Though 7 Wonders is a longer game than others on this list, it’s a great pick if you’re looking for something with a little more ??strategic depth. 

5. The Resistance: Avalon

Avalon pits a team of good and evil characters from classic Arthurian legends against one another in a game of social deduction and voting. If you’re allied with Arthur and his loyal knights, you’ll need to successfully complete three quests without inviting the hidden evil characters at the table to accompany you. If you’re playing?? as a villain, you and your allies must work to sabotage the quests without being discovered.

6. Codenames

Codenames is a classic guessing game where all players except the two opposing spymasters at?tempt to interpret their team’s one-word clues to figure out which of the 2?5 words on the table belong to their side. If you’re playing as the spymaster, your role is to choose these clues, and so guide your team towards the right words and away from the dreaded assassin tile. Should you or your teammates accidentally touch this codename, you’ll immediately lose the game.

7. Telestrations

Telestrations is somewhat similar to Pictionary, but with an extra twist that makes it an even more comedic experience. Each player will receive a random word that they’ll need to draw, and once the timer is up, they’ll pass their drawing to the next player over. That player will attempt to guess what the drawing represents and pass their guess to the next player over, who will, in the next round, illustrate that guess. If you’re looking for something that’s more specifically tailored towards adults, you can also try Telestrations After Dark, in which the words you’ll be drawing are strangely reminiscent of Cards Against Humanity.

8. Wavelength

Think you can read the minds of the people at your party or game night? Wavelength focuses on trying to figure out exactly what they’re thinking. You’ll need to guess where on a spectrum the hidden bullseye is based on the clues you’re getting from your team’s psychic. The psychic knows where the bullseye is and will draw a card with a set of binaries on it and then say a word that leads their team towards finding the exact point they’re aiming to hit. For example, if the psychic draws a card that says “hot/cold�and the bullseye is on the hottest end of the spectrum, they might give the word “lava�as ??a clue.

9. One Night Ultimate Werewolf

In One Night Ultimate Werewolf, it’s your goal to figure out which of the other players at the table are werewolves- unless, of course, you’re the werewolf. In that case, you’ll be secretly directing the villagers to squabble amongst themselves and accuse each of other being werewolves. It’s a quick, s?ocial, and endlessly replayable game for up to ten players.

10. Sushi Go Party!

Sushi Go Party! is a straightforward drafting game in which the objective is to create the most delectable dinner possible based on card scores and set bonuses. The game’s artwork is adorable, with many unique designs for the nigiri, uramaki, edamame, tofu, and various other Japanese food-themed cards. By the end of three rounds, your mix of appetizers, rolls, specials, and desserts? might just be the best meal at the table.

Nighthawk Interactive has announced that they’ll be publishing Pui Pui Molcar Let’s! Molcar Party! in North America and Europe on November 21. It’s set for release? on Switch.

Originally published by Bandai Namco in Japan and developed by Groove Box Japan, I’m just learning of this show featuring potato cars now. I had to look it up, but apparently, it’s popular in an internet sort of way, but I’ve never ??seen i??t. I would probably have remembered potato cars.

The potato cars are actually rodent-car hybrids, with the “mol�part of the title coming from the Japanese word morumotto, which means Guinea Pig. Pui Pui Molcar Let’s! Molcar Party! is a party game based on the concept, and it looks so weirdly compelling. I think it’s poking the same spot in my brain that Choro Q tends to jab at??. Cute rode??nt cars living in a little playset city? Sign me up.

The art style in Pui Pui Molcar Let’s! Molcar Party! is also really charming, featuring felt-like fur on all the potato c??ars and a sort of stop-motion jerkiness to their animations. Beyond playing minigames involving dancing or playing cops and robbers, you can also observe/feed the potato cars and even pet them. You can dress them up and take photos of them. It’s a game that looks wholesome and cute while also having a bizarre, unhinged quality.

Pui Pui Molcar Let’s! Molcar Party! is set to r??elease for Switch in Nort?h America and Europe on November 21. It’s been out in Japan since late 2021.

The Jackbox Party Pack 10 will be released on October 19, as announced by Jackbox Games on Thursday. It will feature five new games, including a sequel to the beloved Tee K.O. There's also a music-making game called Dodo Re Mi. You can now wishlist the game on Steam.

The selection?? of games available within the 10th Party Pack include:

• Tee K.O. 2
• FixyText
• Hynotorious
• Timejinx
• Dodo Re Mi

We only know vague details about each game, however. FixyText is based on text editing. In a frantic group, you're "typing all at once to make the most memorable statement," according to the Steam page. Something that will likely make the game entertaining is that you? can't delete anything you write.

Hypnotorious is a hidden identity game. It's apparently a "game with secret roles, tentative alliances, and of course silly answers to ridiculous questions." It may be similar to Monster Seeking Monster and Push the Button.

Meanwhile, Timejinx is a trivia title that revolves around a time traveller from the future. You'll be trying to "save your current timeline by answering questions about the past." It doesn't sound as deadly as Trivia Murder Party but seems like fun, for sure.

Lastly, Dodo Re Mi has your phone as an instrument. You'll be working together to "escape the hun?gry jungle plant."

Thankfully, The Jackbox Party Pack 10 will be coming to all major gami??ng platforms, including PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, PC, and Nintendo Switch. We also know you can play the game with English, French, Italian, German, and Spanish language opti?ons from day one.

Go! Gadget, go!

Microids has announced that Inspector Gadget: Mad Time Party will release in 1983?�No, wait, I mean September 2023.

Sorry, I’m confused. Inspector Gadget wrapped up its initial television run before I was born, and despite that, I watched a heckuva lot of it in my youth thanks to syndication. It’s had a few revivals and spin-offs since then, but Mad Time Party seems to be based on the original series.

I’d actually be really down with a new game based off Inspector Gadget, but it turns out that Mad Time Party is a party game. I’m a severe int??rovert. Even the word “party�triggers me in the same way the word “salt�triggers a snail.

[caption id="attachment_375850" align="alignnone" width="640"] Image via Microids[/caption]

It might not be a total loss, however. There is a single-player mode that allows you to explore Metro City and complete challenges and quests. The story involves time travel and the eponymous inspector competing against his ancestors for parts of a time machine. They’ve brought in Tanis Chalopin, which is the daughter of Inspector Gadget’s creator, Jean Chalopin, to do the soundtrack. That means they’ll at least have some respect for the pr??operty.

It’s not�inspiring much fa?ith. Also, it’s going to cost $39.99 USD, which seems like a lot. It’s setting off my morbid curiosity, at least.

Inspector Gadget: Mad Time Party is coming PC, PS4, PS5, and Switch sometime in Septemb?er 2023.

This game seem 'sus to you?

Epic Games has revealed the identity of the next title that it will be offering up to its users, free of charge, on its digital retail outlet Epic Games Store �Available to all as of January 12, the new freebie is Invisible Wa??lls multiplayer mystery title First Class Trouble.

Launched on PC and PlayStation in November 2021, First Class Trouble sees a literal party of players shipped about a top-tier, highly elite space cruiser �the ISS Alithea. While the guests sip sweet champagne and carouse?? with the locals, the ship's A.I. unit, CAIN, goes rogue and decides to shut down the party and its patrons, permanently. Manifesting several lifelike androids known as "Personoids", CAIN attempts to sabotage the vessel's mainframe, while our inebriated toffs mount a rebellion n order to identify the Personoids, crush CAIN, and get back to drinking the night away.

//www.youtube.co??m/watch?v=3_uu_fZJxLQ&ab_channel=PlayStation

From a gameplay standpoint, First Class Trouble sees six players take the roles of guests and/or Personoids, with the former tasked with identifying and ejecting the latter, who themselves must disrupt the ship's mechanisms without being detected. If this all sounds suspiciously familiar �or should I simply say "'sus" �then that's by design, as First Class Trouble is essentially an alternate take on the party mystery genre popularized by InnerSloth's viral hit Among Us, albeit one sporting a bit more? of a "Gatsby" vibe.

First Class Trouble will be available to download from the Epic Games Store from January 12. Until then, you can still pick up current freebies Kerbal Space Program and Shadow Tactics �Aiko’s Choice from the EGS dashboard. First Class Trouble is also availabl?e on PlayStation platforms via the PSN store.

Get ready to party with Jackbox Party Pack 9

A staple at any good party, the Jackbox games have become something of a ubiquity for people who love a good group game at a get-together. They're well-designed, easy to understand, and anyone can partake as long as they have a phone or computer to use. The Jackbox model is pretty genius, and it's one? of those series I'm always going to check out every tim?e they have a new release.

//www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7ffJQyTC6Q

That's why I'm super excited to see the trailer drop for their newest release, Jackbox Party Pack 9. It's yet another excuse to have a bunch of friends over and sit down to check out t?he new games. There are four completely new games in this pack, as well as the return of a revamped favorite:

• Quixort, a co-op trivia sorting game where players will have to sort a series of blocks in order thanks to the help of some little robots.
• Junktopia, a storytelling game where players are turned into frogs by an evil wizard, and must earn their way back into the wizard’s good graces by giving random objects amusing backstories to increase their values.
• Roomerang, a role-playing game where players take on the role of gameshow contestants and must answer prompts and avoid elimination.
• Nonsensory, a laid-back game where players write, draw, and try to guess the silly things that their friends wrote and drew.
• And of course Fibbage 4, the return of a classic where players must bluff and get other players to believe their false answers.

The new trailer that dropped today gives a nice, quick overview of what each game entails if you're looking for a summary. There are also some adorable pugs involved, which I think is only due to their being adorable. Whate?ver, I'm not complaining.

Jackbox Party Pack 9 will be available on Nintendo Switch, Xbox, P??layStation, and Steam, wi?th an announcement of the release date coming soon.

Rubbin' is racin'

You can always count on Kirby to give us copious amounts of spinoff games. While many franchises in Nintendo's stable remain dormant, Kirby is always there, whether it's with a mainline entry or something else entirely. While Kirby's Dream Buffet is held back by a few things, it's one of the stronger side ??game efforts in recent years, especially if you have people ??to play with.

Kirby's Dream Buffet (Nintendo Switch)
Developer: HAL Laboratory
Publisher: Nintendo
Released: August 17, 2022
MSRP: $14.99

The core of Kirby's Dream Buffet involve??s taking control of one of many aesthetically different Kirbys (with unlockable costumes and colors) across a series of courses and minigames. Your goal is to eat as many strawberries as you can (which are littered about the race track and in the minigames), and become as big as possible. The person with the highest strawberry count a?t the end (of a group of four total) wins.

You'll do this by rolling down courses, hovering to get back on after getti??ng knocked off, and using copy abilities (which are modified for racing purposes, and have a dessert-like aesthetic to them). The more you eat the bigger you grow, and the faster you go. It's simple, and the two-button scheme (hop and use copy ability) is something everyone in the family can pick up.

The core mode of Kirby's Dream Buffet is Grand Prix, which features the following style of progression:

• A race (at the end, you'll eat one of three cakes, which provide bonus points for the person who finished first, second, and third)
• A minigame involving collecting fruit that drops from the sky (in various forms and locations)
• Another race
• A final battle minigame where you can get knocked out of the arena and lose strawberries (before respawning)

//www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQqVCYDD3sA

Yes, it even has Mario Party-esque equaliz?er bonuses that can shift the balance of power at the very ?end, like "most enemies destroyed."

In true Kirby fashion, it's a very relaxing, low-stakes game. Racing is seamless, and something you'll get used to midway through your very first course. There's walls to roll up, pathways to finesse without falling off, enemies to avoid, strawberries to pick up, and Mario Kart-like question mark blocks to grab to tri?gger powers. All of this is backed by an adorable and vibrant food theme, which looks far better in motion than it does in stills.

There's some depth there despite the cutesy veneer, like using the jelly power-up to go under walls, or going for higher-stakes paths that could result in big lead times, or disastrous failure if you fall. Immediately, the aim of the game was apparent, an??d you can see how HAL opted to appeal to all sorts of players with the level layouts.

Minigames and battle sessions are even lower key. Usually they last roughly a minute each, and let players duke it out on a smaller map. I dig the overarching narrative here, with the rich getting richer with a physically larger Kirby, and thus bec??oming a more obvious target. You can feel the push and pull of that mechanic when people are eying you during races, or straight up trying to murder you.

If you want, you don't have to settle for the grand prix experience every time. You can play just the aforementioned minigames, a single race, or a standalone battle (as well as a training-style free-roll mode where you can try out the controls/physics and copy abilities). All of this contributes to overall rank-ups, which in turn net you more stuff. Surprisingly, for 15 bucks, Dream Buffet has a decent chunk ??of content to work through. There's 135 ranks of unlocks, which consist mostly of costumes, music, color schemes, and minigame levels. You can play up to two players split-screen locally, with online support for up to four, and a mode for local play (multiple Switch units).

There's two caveats here, and these things hold Dream Buffet back. There's no three- or four-player split-screen play, which is a missed opportun?ity. Even some of the smaller modes that could theoretically fit on one screen aren't supported on one console. Online play is also iffy at the moment, with some lag involved in my multiple sessions with it. It's playable, but I really hope it's addressed, because marathoning online matches is really fast and addictive: the race-to minigame-to? race-to minigame formula is refreshing and fun with randoms.

Kirby's Dream Buffet isn't quite?? what I expected, mostly for the better. For the price, it feels like a complete game with a p??rogression system, with multiplayer support to boot. I just wish that latter portion was a bit more polished and fleshed out, because that's where the long-term appeal lies.

Jackbox is back again

It seems like yesterday that Jackbox games came out for the first time and revolutionized the party game scene, but they just announced their newest release: Jackbox Party Pack 9. How we ?went through so many Party Packs this quickly is beyond me, but given ho??w much I play these games at my own events, I'm excited to have another set of games to try out.

I have to admit I always look forward to seeing the theming of each Party Pack, and this time each of the games a??re made to look like a billboard, with the number 9 floating in the sky like a cloud �cute.

The games in Jackbox Party Pack 9 include:

• Quixort, a co-op trivia sorting game where players will have to sort a series of blocks in order thanks to the help of some little robots.
• Junktopia, a storytelling game where players are turned into frogs by an evil wizard, and must earn their way back into the wizard's good graces by giving random objects amusing backstories to increase their values.
• Roomerang, a role-playing game where players take on the role of gameshow contestants and must answer prompts and avoid elimination.
• Fibbage 4, the return of a classic where players must bluff and get other players to believe their false answers.
• And finally Nonsensory, a laid-back game where players write, draw, and try to guess the silly things that their friends wrote and drew.

//www.youtube.com/watch?v=6HaToA3lew8

The return of Fibbage also brings some new features along as well, like Fibbage Enough About You mode, Cookie's VHS Vault, Fibbage Fan Questions, and more. If you want to see the new games in action, you can also check out the livestream event that Jackbox put on in conjunction with Gish.

The Jackbox Party Pack 9 is set to rel??ease this fall, so we'll have plenty of fun new games to try out at our part?ies in the coming months.

If you're looking for something new to play after Overcooked, Moving Out, and Tools Up

It's been a winding journey, but Nintendo Switch owners will finally have a chance to play the frantic co-op moving game Get Packed. A new Switch version, Get Packed: Couch Chaos, launches on April 28 with extra mini-games like soccer and a cannon-dodging activity.

//www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxnIwRQ2zqU

Lock me in a room surrounded by a dozen canno?ns, and I'm gonna freak. The ??only thing that's missing is a little Jigsaw puppet rolling up on a tricycle to kick off the festivities.

This game might not look like much at a glance, and that honestly goes double for the Switch edition �but it's actually pretty fun if you're looking to grow your collection of games in the Overcooked, Moving Out, and Tools Up umbrella. I'd rank it somewhere in the middle, at least based on my experience with the PS4 version, which you can read more about here. Interestingly, this is one of those games that got its start on Sta??dia before showing up on other platforms �Nintendo Switch is the latest (and seemingly last).

Get Packed is fast-paced, a bit loose, and explosion-filled, so when I say that your job is to snatch up valuable possessions and cram them into a moving truck as fast as possible without cr?ashing into teammates, well, expect your ideal plans to be quickly derailed.

I dig the game's bleak, unconventional premise. "When a greedy salt mining company takes over Ditchlington, Last Ditch Removals must handle the hostile eviction. With little time and even less caution, your ragtag removals team gets to work rapidly relo?cating the entire town…leaving a trail of destruction, ?explosions, and debris in your wake!"

[caption id="attachment_315119" align="alignnone" width="1920"] _{Mind the forklifts.}[/caption]

The story mode goes to interesting places beyond normal houses, and communication feels necessary. I distinctly remember trying (and failing) to squeeze dinosaur bones through s??ome museum doors while a relentless security guar??d was on my case.

If you've got a partner (or two, or three), Get Packed: Couch Chaos will be o??ut on April 28 for $14.99. A word of warning: don't send off the truck p??rematurely, or your team will revolt.

Create your own Mystery Science Theater snark-along

A new game for those who've hosted a Bad Movie Night or two is coming in a few months. The professional movie hecklers at RiffTrax are launching their own game with What the Dub?! studio Wide Right Interactive on May 5, 2022.

RiffTrax: The Game will feel pretty familiar to those who like to talk back to their movies. If you're unfamiliar, RiffTrax—and its spiritual predecessor Mystery Science Theater 3000—featured low-budget f?ilms that actors would talk over, making jokes about the events on-screen.

This RiffTrax game looks to be using a similar set-up, where players can inject their own snark into the spaces of bad cinema. Wide Right created a similar set-up with What the Dub?!, a party game where players dubbed in new lines for movies. The RiffTrax game?? is using some similar tech?, with a few new twists.

//www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ot1Ejm3wLsM

Players can either write their own riffs, or pick from a selected bunch of riffs written by the RiffTrax team. Judging by the trailer, these riffs appear to be voiced by the RiffTrax folks, so that's a neat little addition. There are going to be over 250 movie clips, including some classics like Plan 9 From Outer Space.

Wide Right Interactive confirms there will be cross play and remote games, as well as Twitch chat integration. RiffTrax: The Game also uses a Jackbox style controller setup, where ??any internet-connected device can access and play along. So yes, riff away on your phone, t?ablet, or whatever else can make it through to the world wide web.

As someone practically raised on MST3K, this one will probably be a sure lock for some future parties. We'll see whose snark is up to snuff on May 5, when RiffTrax: The Game arrives on Switch, PC, Xbox One, and PS4. Those last two platforms a??re also forward compatible with next-gen console?s.
