Hallmark Christmas Movie Drinking Game

There are quite a few versions of this now-popular game floating around the internet. Hallmark movies are perfect for drinking games as they tend to follow similar themes and include common tropes. Just be sure to drink responsibly -- and make sure you've downloaded Uber before you start!

Candy Canes

Every played spoons? Well, the raucous game is just as fun -- though perhaps not as noisy -- when played with candy canes. All you need is some candy canes, a deck of cards and 4-8 players ready for a good time.

Blindfolded Wrapping

All you need for this hilarious game is a table of precut wrapping paper, tape, bows and boxes (big or small). Players are blindfolded, then asked to wrap one of the boxes. Best wrapped present wins.

You can use empty boxes, or fill them with party favors.

Murder Mystery

Masters of Mystery recently released their Christmas Mashup Murder mystery game. It's the ultimate holiday-themed whodunit. The game is available in English, French and German for 4-20 players.
