Creative Date Night Games

Whether you’re in a new relationship or have been together for years, sometimes date night can fall into a rut. But it's important to keep the spark alive in your relationship! One way to do that is by thinking outside the box when it comes to date night. If you’re looking for some fun ideas to mix things up, try one of these games next time you’re planning a date night at home.

Assassin: One person is “it” and their job is to eliminate the other players by tagging them with a nerf gun or similar object. The last person standing wins. This game is great if you want to add a little competition to your date night.

Time bomb: Each person has two minutes to share something interesting about themselves without repeating anything that’s already been said. If someone repeats something, they explode (pretend to die). This game is perfect for getting to know each other better.

Video Game Challenge: Choose a video game that you and your partner can play together. The person with the most kills/points at the end of the game wins. This is a great option for couples who love gaming.

Couples Games for Date Night

And, fortunately, there are plenty of games out there that are specifically designed for couples. So, if you’re looking for some game ideas for date night, here are a few that you might want to check out:

Scavenger Hunt
This one is perfect for couples who love being active and exploring new places together. You can create the hunt yourself or check out some printable ones online.

Two Truths and a Lie
This classic game is the perfect icebreaker for any date night. To play, each person takes turns sharing three facts about themselves, one of which is a lie. The goal is to fool your partner into guessing which one is the lie. Not only will this game help you get to know each other better, but it's also bound to generate some laughs along the way.

Never Have I Ever
This game is a great way to learn more about your partner's past experiences (and possibly even confess some of your own). To play, each person takes turns making statements beginning with "Never have I ever." For example, "Never have I ever been skydiving." If your partner has done the thing you said, they then get a point. The first person to get 10 points is the winner. The key is to make the statements as creative and interesting as possible so you can really get to know what makes your partner tick.

What Are You Wearing?
This simple but fun game is perfect for couples who are stuck in a rut and need spice up their date night routine. To play, take turns asking each other increasingly personal questions about what the other person is wearing. For example, "What color are your socks?" or "What style of underwear are you wearing?" The object of the game is to see how far you can push each other without making things too awkward. But beware – this game can quickly turn naughty, so use your best judgement!

Would You Rather?

This timeless classic is perfect for couples who want to find out more about their partner's values and beliefs. To play, simply take turns asking each other "Would You Rather" questions such as "Would you rather be able to read people's thoughts or be able to read animals' thoughts?" Be prepared for some interesting conversations – and maybe even a few disagreements – as you learn more about what your partner values most in life.
