Entertaining games for the company. The best mind games for advanced companies
We have long holidays ahead of us, many will have a rest or travel in the company of friends. To make your vacation more fun and exciting, we have put together some cool games for you that will help you laugh a lot, train your convolutions once again and learn a lot about each other. They do not require special props, so go for it.
Hat
All participants come up with ten words, write them on pieces of paper and put them in a hat. And then the fun begins: the players take turns trying to explain, show or draw the words they come across in a limited amount of time, and everyone else tries to guess them. The most successful receive victory points, honor, fame and a medal around the neck.
Associations
Everyone sits in a circle, and someone speaks any word in the ear of his neighbor, he must immediately say his first association to this word in the ear of the next one, the second says to the third, and so on, in a chain, until the word returns to the first. If from the "elephant" you get a "stripper" - consider that the game was a success.
get to know me
Several people sit in a row. The leader must, blindfolded, by touch recognize the hidden person in the sitting ones. Moreover, you can guess by different parts of the body - for example, by the arm, legs, hair, depending on how far everyone is ready to go.
Jenga
A tower is built from even wooden blocks, and the laying direction alternates at each level. Then the players take turns carefully pulling out one block at a time and placing it on top of the tower. All this must be done very carefully, otherwise the tower will collapse. The player, as a result of whose actions the collapse occurred, is considered the loser.
Crocodile
This is a popular game in which participants use gestures, movements and facial expressions to show a hidden word, while other players try to guess it. The driver is forbidden to pronounce any words or make sounds, use or point to surrounding objects, show letters or parts of a word. The lucky one, who guesses what it is about, in the next round he himself depicts the word, but already different.
Cucumber
One leader is selected, and all the rest become in a very close circle - literally shoulder to shoulder. Players' hands must be behind. The essence of the game is to imperceptibly pass a cucumber behind the backs of the host and, at every opportunity, bite off a piece of it. And the task of the presenter is to guess in whose hands the cucumber is. If the presenter guessed correctly, then the player caught by him takes his place. The game continues until the cucumber is eaten. It's very funny!
Contact
The host thinks of a word and calls the rest of the players the first letter of this word. For example, the word catastrophe is conceived - the first letter "K". Each of the other players comes up with a word that starts with that letter and tries to explain to the others what exactly they have in mind without naming it. If one of the players understood which word was intended by those who explained, then he says “There is a contact!” and both (the one explaining and responding) begin to count aloud to ten, and then each say his own word. If the word matched, then the leader calls the second letter of the word, and the game continues, only now you need to invent and explain the word with the initial letters already given. If the word did not match, then the players continue to try to come up with and explain a new word.
Danetki
Good old detective fun. Danetka is a word puzzle, a confusing or strange story, part of which the presenter tells, and the rest must restore the sequence of events. Questions can only be asked that can be answered with "Yes", "No" or "Irrelevant", hence the name of the game. Here you can find the most interesting "danetki".
I never...
With the help of this game you can get to know people better. The chips of this game are any items, such as coins, toothpicks, and so on. The game begins like this: the first participant says something that he has never done in his life (“I never ...”). All other participants in the game who did this must give one chip to this player. Whoever has the most chips at the end of the game wins.
Secret Keeper
Very addictive and extremely mind-blowing game. The host thinks of a phrase, slogan or quote known to all participants. Names the number of words in it. Then the players ask the "keeper" any questions. Each answer must contain a word from the hidden phrase. The answer must fit in one sentence. Analyzing the facilitator's answers, the players give their version of the "secret".
Fanta
Good old children's game. The players collect one of any item, which are put into a bag. One player is blindfolded. The leader pulls out things in turn, and the blindfolded player comes up with a task for the pulled out thing, the owner of which must complete it. Tasks can be very different: sing a song, dance or walk the iron...
Kissing
The game will require four or more participants (the more the better). All participants stand in a circle. Someone stands in the center, this is the leader. Then everyone starts moving: the circle rotates in one direction, the one in the center in the other. The center must have their eyes blindfolded or closed. Everyone sings:
Matryoshka walked along the path,
Lost two earrings
Two earrings, two rings,
Kiss the young girl.
With the last words, everyone stops. A pair is selected according to the principle: the leader is the one (one) who is in front of him. Then there is the question of compatibility. They stand with their backs to each other and at the count of "three" turn their heads to the left or right; if the sides match, then the lucky ones kiss!

The main thing is that the suit sits
To play, you will need a large box or bag (opaque), which contains various items of clothing: underpants size 56, bonnets, bras size 10, glasses with a nose, etc. funny things.
The host invites those present to update their wardrobe by pulling out some item from the box, with the condition that they do not remove it for the next half hour.
At the signal of the presenter, the guests pass the box to the music. As soon as the music has stopped, the player holding the box opens it and, without looking, takes out the first thing that comes across and puts it on. The view is amazing!

club
Players, 6-8 people, sit around the leader. The leader is given a "baton" (a newspaper rolled into a tube). Further, names are distributed among the players (names of animals, flowers, fish, in general, whatever, but on the same topic). The goal of the host and the players is to remember who has what "name". The game begins with the fact that one of the players shouts out any name, the leader must quickly figure out who it is, turn around and hit the "baton" on the knees of the player with this name. The named player, until he was "planted", must shout out another "name", and the leader, if he did not have time to "plant" the first, switches to the second and so on. The player who is "planted" becomes the leader. In general, very fun and noisy

At the signal of the leader, the players, running one after another, try to step on the tail of the "opponent" fish with their foot. Touching the threads and fish with your hands is not allowed. The player whose fish was plucked is out of the game. The team with the most fish left wins.

Drawing from words
To play the game, it is necessary that one of the players schematically depict something not very complicated on paper, for example, a house with smoke coming from the chimney and birds flying in the sky.
The host shows the picture to one of the players and then hides it. The one who saw it whispers to the second what is depicted on it. The second in a whisper retells what he heard to the third, and so on. the last to know the content of the picture is the one who will depict it.
What he has drawn is compared with the picture itself, then the quality of the oral story about it, in which all the players participated, is evaluated.
Very exciting hobby
The host asks three guys (men) who have interesting hobbies or activities to take part in the competition. He warns the players that they must not name their hobbies until the end of the competition, as the rest of the guests should use questions to try to guess them. Participants are asked to leave the room for a while (allegedly so that the rest of those present come up with questions.), And the host explains to the audience that this is a prank and all three players have the same hobby - kissing (for a more relaxed company - sex). Players come back and answer questions based on their hobby.
Question options:
- How old were you when you first took up this hobby?
- Where did you learn your hobby?
- Who taught you this hobby?
- How often do you do this?
- How much free time do you devote to your hobbies?

- Could your hobby eventually become a profession?
- Do you share your experience with anyone?
- What sounds are present when you are doing your hobby?
- What do you feel about it?
The members answer questions and don't understand at first why the audience is laughing. After all, as a rule, men mean fishing, hunting, driving a car, woodcarving, etc.! And only after they answer all the questions prepared by the guests, the players are informed that it was a prank and they were all asked questions, suggesting that kissing (or sex) is their hobby. Try it, it's very fun!
Answer without words
Number of players: any.
The facilitator sits down in the center and begins to ask questions to the players, turning to one or the other. For example:

The “fortuneteller” picks up a book and addresses it with a question of interest to him, for example: “Dear book ... (names the author and the title of the book), please tell me what awaits me next month?” Then he guesses any page and any line, for example: page 72, line 5 from the bottom (or page 14, line 10 from the top). Next, the player finds the desired line in the book at the specified coordinates, reads it out - this is the answer to his question.
Damaged Xerox
This is a modification of the famous game "broken phone". Players are divided into teams (preferably at least 4 people in each) and stand one after another. Players standing in front are given blank sheets of paper and pencils (pens). Then the leader approaches the last players in turn and shows them a simple picture prepared in advance. The goal of each player is to draw on the back of the person in front what is shown in the picture. The next player tries to understand what has been drawn to him, and then tries to draw the same picture on the back of the next. This goes on until the first player in the line, who draws the final version on a piece of paper. The team whose drawing ends up most similar to the original wins.
Players sit in a circle. The leader brings out a plush toy. For example, a bear. Each participant must kiss the bear anywhere. After that, the host asks everyone to kiss their neighbor in the same place where they kissed the bear.
Have a drink
Drinks are placed on the table. The number of glasses must be one less than the number of players. Participants, at the signal of the facilitator, begin to walk around the table. When the leader claps his hands, they stop and each drink the glass he has received. Whoever is left without a glass is out of the game.
After that, all glasses are filled again, and their number should be one less than the number of remaining players.
guess yourself
All participants sit in a circle, a sticker is glued to each forehead, on which the name of a famous person or fairy-tale character is written. The task of each participant is that he must guess which person's name is written on his sticker.
He can find out with the help of leading questions.
Drawing Together
Guests are divided into 2-3 teams. An easel and a felt-tip pen are provided for each team. All participants are blindfolded. The facilitator in turn leads each participant to an easel, where they will have to draw the sexiest, in their opinion, part (a man in a woman, and a woman in a man). As a result, the teams will get fun and varied drawings. After all, everyone will draw something of their own, for example, eyes, chest, and so on. For the most "wonderful" drawing, the team receives a prize.
Feel like a baby
For this competition, you will need bottles of beer and pacifiers in the same quantity as the number of guests participating in this competition. The facilitator opens the beer, puts a pacifier on each bottle and distributes to the participants. At the command “started”, everyone starts emptying their bottles, because with a dummy it’s not so easy. Whoever does it first will get a prize.
racing
The guests are divided into pairs. The participants of each pair stand with their backs to each other, and an object is placed between their backs, for example, a balloon or a ball. On the “start” command, the teams must rise and run to the goal without losing the ball and not dropping it even once, the one who drops it returns to the start and starts the journey again. Whoever overcomes the distance faster and more smoothly than anyone and delivers the ball to its destination, he, or rather that couple, receives a prize.
Toast!
For the competition you need a glass and some kind of drink. The first guest at the table pours a little drink into a glass. The second tops up and so on. When the glass is full and the drink begins to overflow, then the guest on whom this happened must say a toast and drink the contents of the glass.
Men's hairstyle
Participants are divided into pairs. The girls are given hair bands. Girls should make their guys beautiful hairstyles with rubber bands. Whose hairstyle will be the most beautiful, according to the guests, he won.
For the best effect, girls can be given not only elastic bands, but also hairpins, combs, and so on.
give me a hug
The guests are divided into pairs. Participants in each pair are tied at the waist with a strong knot. All couples become in one big circle. On the “start” command, the participants should try to hug the participant opposite, so everyone will stretch in different directions, and whoever is stronger and more agile will be able to win. The first to embrace will receive loud applause and prizes.
Mixed up clothes
The guests are divided into pairs. Each couple, not having time to wake up in the morning, was going to an important meeting and mixed up clothes: the man put on a women's blouse, and the woman - a men's shirt. So, in each pair, the man puts on a blouse, and the woman puts on a shirt (any thing with buttons in the same amount, if necessary, buttons can be sewn on) and fasten all the buttons. At the “start” command, the participants of each pair unfasten, change things, change clothes and fasten. The couple with the fastest time to change will be the winner.
The festive table is not only delicious food and drinks. It is also a meeting of people who have gathered in one place for some kind of celebration. And in order for it to pass at the highest level, the owner of the house must make every effort for this. And as an entertainment, you can dilute the feast with various games, quizzes and other activities where guests can show off their talents or knowledge.
Comic tasks at the table will help guests unwind, relieve the jitters of an unusual environment and get to know each other better. But, of course, their main function is to raise the degree of fun. In order for the comic tasks to succeed, the host of the celebration needs to prepare in advance. To do this, you can use the topics below.
sobriety test
The simplest, but at the same time very funny task. Especially if the host and guests use alcoholic beverages during the celebration of an event. But, even a sober person can not cope with such a task. That will cause an attack of laughter in those around you.
As a sobriety test task, you can use various tongue twisters:
- Lilac tooth picker from under the tuck
- In Kabardino-Balkaria valocordin from Bulgaria
- Fluorographer fluorographed a fluorographer
- The Staffordshire Terrier is zealous, and the black-haired Giant Schnauzer is frisky
- It's pointless to comprehend the meaning of meaningless thoughts
The list of such tongue twisters can be continued for a very long time. They can be found on the Internet or special dictionaries.
I love and I don't love
If close people are sitting at the table, then you can play the game “love-dislike” with them. The essence of this game is simple. You need to look at your table neighbor and say which trait in his character you do not like, and which one you like. You can complicate the task by forbidding the next pair to use already named traits. When all the main character traits are over, the real fun will begin at the table.
New Year's mafia
The popular Mafia game stylized as this is ideal for celebrating the New Year. But, for its implementation, you need to prepare and change the standard cards for this game in the "holiday winter". You also need to purchase Santa Claus hats and arrange them with mafia cards. Like the classic "Mafia", stylized as the New Year, it will cause a storm of positive emotions and fun.
Funny fun contests and games for a small company for a birthday at the table
In order for the birthday celebration not to look like a similar event a year ago, you can play several exciting and fun games at the festive table. For example, these:
I'm like...
This very fun game is suitable for a small cozy company. To conduct it, you need to prepare several cards with animals, birds, cartoon characters and comics. The main thing is that the images on these cards are fun and memorable.
In addition to such cards, you need to make cards with phrases, part of which will be the phrase "I look like." For example:
- In the morning I'm like. . .
- When I drink, I become like. . .
- At work, I'm like. . .
- When the director calls me to his office, I become like. . .
The number of cards with phrases depends on your imagination. It is advisable to make them 10-15 pieces.
The game is played as follows. First, the guest draws a card with a phrase (he should not see it in advance) and reads it aloud. Then he takes a card with animals or cartoon characters. He shouldn't have seen her either. Then he shows it to the guests.
Some combinations of cards will cause real bouts of laughter in guests.
Crocodile
Another simple, but quite fun game is the Crocodile entertainment. Its essence is simple. You need to make a word to your neighbor on the table and ask him to portray it with pantomime and gestures. Words cannot be used. When one of the guests guesses the word, the move is passed to him.
Surprise
Surprise is a very interesting game for a small company. It is necessary to put various items in a small chest or box: a false nose, large false ears, a cap, funny glasses, etc. All these items can be purchased at any souvenir shop. A box with things folded into it must be passed from one guest to another to the music. When it ends, the person who has it will have to open it and pull out the souvenir without looking. After that, you need to put it on yourself. After such a transformation, the laughter of the guests is guaranteed.

What? Where? When?
The famous TV quiz show can be adapted to be held at a corporate party. Everyone knows the rules of this game. As for questions, they need to be selected in advance. It is desirable to adapt them to the theme of the event or the scope of the company.
This game is based on memorizing the voices of colleagues. The host chooses one person from the team, who becomes his back to those present. They alternately pronounce the prepared phrase. And you need to say it, changing your voice. The one of the players who guesses his colleagues more, receives some incentive prize.
Colleague
Names and positions of colleagues are written on pieces of paper. Then they are rolled up and placed in a container. The players alternately approach him and take out one piece of paper. Then, with the help of gestures and facial expressions, they must portray their colleague. The rest of those present must solve this riddle.
Table funny jokes for a fun small group of adults
Games in the company of adults can be ambiguous. Many people like these games and cause a lot of positive feelings and emotions. Particularly interesting are such games in companies in which participants who do not suffer from complexes are gathered and evaluate the competitions below as a fun pastime, and nothing more.
Well, put it in
For this game you will need bottles and pens or pencils freed from alcohol. A pencil with a long thread must be tied to the belt of a male player. The girl must hold the bottle between her legs. With the help of dexterity and coordination of movement, the man must hit the neck of the bottle with a pencil. And since this contest is held when the alcohol level in the blood rises, it looks very fun and provocatively.
Red girl
The host must choose from the company of several girls who came to the party in skirts. Then he places a small rug on the floor and blindfolds the girls. They must pass over the mat without hitting it. That is, their legs should be very widely spaced. When all the girls have passed such an obstacle, the host should lie face up on the mat and ask the girls to remove the bandages. The one that blushes the most at the sight of the presenter is declared the winner of the competition.
Harem
This game requires several pairs. Moreover, their number must be odd. Two guys are selected from them, who are bred on the far sides of the room. The rest converge in the center of the room, between the two guys. The guys are blindfolded and oriental music is turned on. Guys should select women for their harem. Whoever does it faster wins. The difficulty lies in the fact that in addition to women, there are also men in the circle. And if one of them is chosen, then he becomes the Sultan and takes the place of the one who chose him. And so on until all the girls are “played out”.
Quizzes for a small group of adults at the table
The first quiz in our country appeared in 1928 in printed form on the pages of the Ogonyok magazine. Then the quizzes moved to TV screens. Some of them are still popular today. Like what? Where? When?" or "Field of Miracles". Others have sunk into oblivion. But, every self-respecting person likes to show off his knowledge in such competitions. Due to which they are held in schools, institutes and corporate parties.

At the New Year's corporate party, questions about winter and this fun holiday will be appropriate. You can also include in the list of questions and those related to the activities of the company, if the quiz is held during a corporate party.
The format of this article does not allow placing here an approximate list of questions. They can be found on the Internet or in various dictionaries and reference books.

Jokes for a small, fun group of adults
Jokes and cheerful mood during festive feasts are commonplace. But, you can diversify the atmosphere with pre-prepared comic contests and skits.
Who thinks what
To conduct this comic competition, you need to prepare in advance. Pick up a few excerpts from the songs that will characterize this or that guest. For example, “Natural blond, there is only one in the whole country”, “I want to get married, I want to get married”, etc. Then, find a hat and when the guests gather at the table, say that you have a magic mind-reading hat. Put a hat on the guests and at the same time turn on a snippet of the song that characterizes the guest.
With coin and handkerchief
You can also do a trick with a coin and a handkerchief. The handkerchief must be taken by the middle and made so that it hangs like a bell. With the other hand we take a coin and show it to the guests. We slip a coin into the handkerchief bell. Show everyone that the coin is under the handkerchief. The last to check the presence of a coin in a scarf should be a partner who quietly removes it from there. Defiantly shake the handkerchief and. . . everyone is convinced that the coin "magically" disappears.
With lemon
An excellent prank that can be played during tea drinking. State that you love tea with lemon very much and can drink 10 or even 20 mugs of it. As a rule, among the guests there are several gambling people who, of course, will not believe this and will ask you to prove it. Take a lemon, preferably two, and place them whole in a mug. Then pour some tea into it. Due to the fact that most of the mug was taken by lemon, there will be very little tea in it. In this amount, you can drink 10 or even 20 cups of tea.
Board game with notes at the festive table
The most popular contest with notes are forfeits. It can be arranged for both children and adults. The meaning of this game is in the implementation of tasks that are written on paper. At the same time, the phantom does not know in advance what task he will get.
Tasks for the game of forfeit should not be offensive, difficult from a physical point of view, unaesthetic or unhealthy. At the same time, it is important that all tasks must be quickly completed and when using them, the phantom must use his creative potential.
Each player, in forfeits, writes a task on a piece of paper. Then all the leaves are folded and placed in an opaque vessel, hat or bag. Fanta players take turns taking notes with tasks and completing them.
There are several variants of this game. The most risky is forfeits with a pledge. Each player leaves some kind of deposit, which is left as a prize if the phantom does not want to complete the task. You can also assign a cash prize. To do this, each of the players will hand over a certain amount, which will go to the winner.
