2. Icebreaker

150 Cards | Ages 14+;

Icebreaker is an icebreaker. Kills the anxiety when you meet new people and have absolutely no idea how to start conversations.

3. TableTopics

135 cards | Ages 13+

Although Table Topics has a few editions, the Best Things Ever brings out the best (or worst) of people. You can play it with whoever you wish, but mostly with people you haven’t been in touch with lately. Or never. There’s only one category of cards, but they will tell a lot about people’s mindset.

• Which comedians make you laugh until your sides ache?;
• Who’s the best boss you’ve ever had?;
• If you could receive a bouquet of many flowers, what would it be?;

4. Talking Point

200 cards | Ages 8+;

Don’t you all need a Talking Point with people? Coming with a total of 4 categories, this family card game touches Get To Know You, Family Time, What Makes You, You, and Fun & Random. Even though it is made for family times, you can also play it with friends or other people, and spend some meaningful time!

• What do children know more about than adults?;
• What are the most important things you’ve learned from your family?;
• What’s one special talent you would like to have?

5. So…

54 cards | Ages 17+;

So… it’s all about deep conversations. This deck can either be used in a date night to share thoughts and feelings, or at a party with people you absolutely have no connection with at all. Cards are straightforward, creative, and very meaningful. If you want something more personal, they’ve got deeper decks too!

• If you could punch anyone in the face without repercussions, who would it be?;
• What’s a common trait shared by everyone you’ve dated?;
• What is something you’ve said or done that still makes you cringe?;
• What usually are your first thoughts in the morning?

6.  Who’s Most Likely To…

250 cards | Ages 14+;

Differently from other games, ‘Who’s Most Likely’ doesn’t ask direct questions. The questions are read out loud, and everyone (preferably, 4+ people) must guess to whom the prompt relates mostly. In the best scenario, people playing should know a bit about each other, so they can refer to questions. The best thing is that you can play without cards too, only by using our Most Likely To list of questions.

• Owns a snuggie/pillow pet;
• Makes a terrible first impression;
• Will do anything for $5;
• Has a heart-to-heart with a homeless guy.

For The Girls is for the girls, duh! Since girls expect to make new girlfriends every day, this card game is a big help.

9. Big Talk

90 cards | Ages 13+’

Wanna know how to skip small talk sessions? Big Talk helps you do that, and the best thing is that it is one of the most heart-touching card games for 2. Because of its simplicity, and the way the questions are written, Big Talk is used in therapy sessions too. That’s how powerful it is.

10. You Know

108 cards | Ages 7+; 

‘You Know’, besides connecting people, helps with self-esteem too. That’s why it is this important. All cards contain 2 questions, so there are enough things to talk about. Most of the questions start with Would You Rather, but, there are extra wild cards as well. We might say it’s similar to UNO.

• Would you rather change one thing about the world or one thing about yourself?;
• Would you rather live with your favorite people in a glacier, or live and travel anywhere, but always alone?;
• Would you rather everyone in your family have 1 wish, or have 3 wishes all to yourself?

11. Pricetitution

130 cards | Ages 16+;

Pricetitution is a very… unique way to get to know people. The idea of the game is to guess how much money would it take for a player to do specific things. Although lots of the questions are hilarious, many of them explore your fears, tell about your personality, and help you connect deeply with the people playing, whether you’re close friends or have just met each other. 

• How much money would it take me to tell a preschool class of 20 kids that Santa isn’t real?;
• How much money would it take me to get a tattoo on my arm of the last food I ate?;
• How much money would it take me to delete all my social media without an explanation?
