A party game list is only useful if it fits the people in the room, so each page here is written for one crowd: toddlers who cannot wait for a turn, twelve-year-olds stuck indoors, a graduation open house with 80 guests, a seated afternoon for seniors, three friends on a quiet night. Open the page that matches your party and three games are already dealt. Every game says how to play in a sentence or two, then gives the players, the time and the props, so you can tell at a glance whether it suits your space. Tap a chip to narrow the list, lock the games you like and deal again for the rest. Copy the list for your helpers or print it for the day. Every game is alcohol-free, and the full list is printed at the bottom of each page.
