Find fun games to borrow and enjoy! Games are only a small part of the hundreds of items available to check out from our fabulous Weird, Odd & Wonderful collection.
Wacky wordplay! Crazy combos! Family fun! It’s as easy as comparing ‘apples to apples!’ With its hilarious mix of family-friendly cards, Apples to Apples is perfect for every apple on your family tree.
In Codenames, two teams compete to see who can make contact with all of their agents first. Spymasters give one-word clues that can point to multiple words on the board. Their teammates try to guess words of the right color while avoiding those that belong to the opposing team. And everyone wants to avoid the assassin.
Death Charades is a party game that pokes fun at life’s inevitable demise. In timed rounds players draw cards and wordlessly act out the multitude of ways one might meet their maker, seeing how many cards their team can guess before time runs out.
The Grimwood is a slightly strategic, highly chaotic role-playing card game. Draw from the deck, steal from other players, and unleash the powers of your supernaturals to get the most points. There’s only a limited time to make your moves though, because the game ends when the last card is drawn.
Here to Slay is a competitive role-playing fantasy strategy card game that’s all about assembling a party of Heroes and slaying monsters (and sometimes sabotaging your friends too) from the creators of Unstable Unicorns.
The Hygge Game is all about bringing people together, getting friends and family to share stories, and discussing the big and small things in life. This game has more than 300 entertaining, interesting, and thoughtful questions designed to spark cozy conversation and create the right atmosphere for an ultimate hygge evening.
A pair of players are asked the same 3 questions and answer them independently, hoping to match as many as possible. Players may either select the category they want to answer questions from (and the other players will pick their partner), or they may pick their partner for the round (and the other players pick which category they answer).
Mount Cleverest’s gameplay is so simple. Deal out the true or false tokens, and take turns to read out facts. Everyone bets on whether the fact is true or false, and you lose your token if you are wrong. The last person with a token is the winner.
A family-friendly party game similar to Taboo where players earn points by getting their teammates to guess words and phrases. The catch is that you are only allowed to use single syllable words. If you use any words with more than one syllable, the other team gets to bop you with a 2-foot inflatable club.
Test your useless knowledge as you draw category cards and shout words that match the category and letter on the race track, turning your trivia prowess into valuable points.
Six Second Scribbles is a fast drawing game. Players all have ONE minute to draw up to TEN things from their card. But not every doodle will do! To win points, your friends and family must be able to guess WHAT you drew.
In this surprisingly strategic game, players compete to build the most valuable meal. Sounds simple, right? Not so fast! Block, Steal, Fight, Trade, and Rummage to outsmart your opponent and gain the cards you need to win.
There’s been a murder in an austere country house in 1930s England. Everyone’s a suspect, but nobody wants to talk about it! Can the players work together to solve the mystery, or will the murderer escape justice? By playing their cards and following the instructions players can discover who holds the key cards, allowing the Detective to uncover the Murderer. When this happens, everyone wins!
Ticket to Ride is an award-winning, cross-country train adventure game. Players collect train cards that enable them to claim railway routes connecting cities throughout North America. The longer the routes, the more points they earn.
The goal of Unstable Unicorns is to be the first person to collect 7 Unicorns in your play area by using a combination of their magical powers and cards to hinder the other players’ progress and destroy their Unicorns instead. But beware — each player has all of these tools at their disposal as well, and you may just find your plans foiled by a well-played “Neigh!” card.
