1. Phase 10 can be purchased at most stores carrying games. We like the "Twist" version.
2. Capitalist (also called Scum, or President) is a card game that works great for any size group that fit around your table-Rules for playing Scum
3. Loaded Questions can be played with the purchased cards or think up your own questions. Basically, you give everyone a paper with their name at the top and they all answer a question by the person who is "it" and then that person guesses who wrote which answer. One person reads all the answers for "it" to guess, so they don't see who wrote what. Questions examples are: What was your favorite cartoon character as a kid? or What is the scariest thing for you? or Which famous person would you like to spend the day with?
4. Person, Place and Thing is a game my son-in-law introduced to our family. Everyone gets 3 pieces of paper and writes down a person on one, place on one and thing on the third. It has to be things everyone has heard of. The papers are folded and put in a bowl. There are 2 teams, being every other person. There are 3 rounds in which the bowl is passed around and one paper at a time is chosen and they have 30 seconds to get their team to guess what is on as many papers as they can get through. The first round is all words-like Taboo, you can't say any part of the answer. The second round is no sound-like charades. The third round is one word only-like password. By the third round, you usually remember some of the answers, but it is still hard.
5. 10,000 or Farkle is a dice game where you keep rolling as long as you roll the right numbers. I think Greed would also work as an appropriate name: Rules for Farkle
