    A colleague did an online escape room over the weekend, which was apparently fun but it took the parents 20 minutes to work out how to get INTO the room ...

    Wow. Some VERY helpful comments and suggestions. Thank you everybody who quoted. We ended up
    playing Pictionary which I would recommend. 
    For anyone else in the same boat (reading this) we will this weekend be playing ‘Tension’ and Bingo. Bingo.... we made our own cards and are using the bingo caller on YouTube (which we play on the Giant Lounge TV). 
    All the best everybody. 
  • Cheers for the suggestions.  One of our best games was Bingo.  We printed off our tickets then went on youtube and found tons of Bingo games

    We love Balderdash in our family and although you didn’t ask for card games we like poker and canasta 


    Happy moneysaving all.
  • Timeline is fun but needs a bit of thinking.  Tennzi is fantastic but involves some investment in dice if you don't already have them.

    Pandemic (if not too close to home!), Catan, Ticket to Ride.  All strategy board games, Pandemic is cooperative with all players against the game.
    loose does not rhyme with choose but lose does and is the word you meant to write.

    We've bought my Son that for Christmas, we all like the show so looking forward to playing that one.
    We've been playing Carcassone online which I rather enjoy, but think that might be limited to 4 players
