Hey all,

Every Christmas Eve, my family hosts the dinner and events. For years my Mother has come up with some simple games to keep everyone entertained during the middle-later portion of the night.

She doesn't like anything too complicated. I was wondering if anyone has any simple party games which are fun with extended family around the holidays.

Thanks.

Jackbox. Each one has several party games, everybody can play on their phone, and it's lots of fun while being fairly simple.

Quick warning about Jackbox, older people may struggle. It's incredibly simple, nearly foolproof, but there's just a certain kind of old person who becomes completely toddler-esque useless around technology.

I still give the recommendation a +1 though. It's cracking fun.
