I love staying in and playing games on New Year’s Eve with family and friends. This year we are doing the same. I’ve tested each of these games out and found them to be the best to play on New Year’s Eve before the countdown begins.
Best Games to Play on New Year’s Eve
This game is number one on my list and by far the best game to play. It’s made by comedian Jeff Foxworthy and I guarantee you will laugh the entire time. You can play 4 to 12 players and is for ages 14+. The concept of the game is to read a setup card aloud, then everyone else chooses a punch line card to finish the phrase, and then the reader picks the funniest one.

Get ready to race the pace or face the shock with Pacemaker Extreme, new from YULU! In this adult party game, players try to outwit their opponents by thinking quick and keeping the pace. Players need to pay close attention to how many times the other players are tapping their paddles since that will set the pace of the pulse. Tap your paddle once and the pulse moves to the next player, tap twice to reverse the pulse and tap 3 times to skip the next player! Be careful – if you tap when it’s not your turn, you get shocked and you’re out! For ages 14+.
Use your hand of cards to determine the suspect, weapon and location of the crime. Was it Colonel Mustard in the Dining Room with the Knife? A true Clue experience is “in the cards!”
Try saying a phrase with a mouthpiece in is not as easy as you think it is. And trying to get your friends to guess what you’re saying is even harder. This is a game of fun while looking silly. There are several versions of this game for family and adults. 3-10 Players wear cheek retractors and speak out phrases while teammates guess what they are saying.
