Looking for the perfect creative but super funny card game to play with your friends? Do you want to know what gets your friends laughing out loud? Well, if so, Joking Hazard is the perfect game for you. In this hilarious card game, players complete hilarious Cyanide and Happiness cartoon strips. When choosing cards, play to the interests of the judge for that round. And trust me: part of the fun is trying to figure out what sense of humor each player has. And if the judge chooses your cards, you win the point! Continue playing until a player reaches three points.

  • This game can get real. Prepare to call out your friends.
  • Contains the same cards as the game "WHO'S MOST LIKELY TO..."

Drunk, Stoned, or Stupid is one of the best party card games out there for adults! Like other similar games, in this game, there is a judge in each round. The judge draws a card from the deck and reads it out loud. Then, all other players will argue who that card applies to. Yikes! Players can base their arguments on anything they want, including personality or experiences. Then, the judge decides who gets the card, the loser for the round! The first person to get 7 cards or -7 points loses!

Of course, a super funny card game that will have you rolling around in laughter is none other than the classic Exploding Kittens. Exploding Kittens is one of the most popular card games out there for a reason (and one of my personal favorites), and the premise is absolutely hilarious. In this card game, players race to become the last player living by defusing or not drawing literal exploding kittens! If you do draw an exploding kitten card and you don’t have a defuse in your hand, you blow up and are out of the game.

4. CARDS AGAINST HUMANITY

Cards Against Humanity
  • A party game for horrible people.
  • Comes with 500 white cards and 100 black cards for eternal replayability.
  • Includes a booklet of sensible game rules and preposterous alternate rules.

Another classic card game that will get you laughing out loud is Cards Against Humanity. This card game is so popular that there are endless expansions you can get once you have the base pack, meaning thousands upon thousands of combinations and plenty of fun! In this funny card game, all players start off with 10 white cards. Then, each player takes turns being the judge by drawing a black card and reading it out loud. All other players must then pick a white card from their hand that best suits the prompt. And the judge can pick their favorite card, which might be the funniest, dirtiest, naughtiest, or (in my case) the cutest card – depending on the judge!

5. SECRET HITLER

Secret Hitler
  • A fast-paced game of deception and betrayal
  • Beautiful wooden components
  • Solid game boards with foil inlay

If you’re after a hilarious game where you’ll play as a liberal or fascist, Secret Hitler is one of the most popular secret role-playing games out there. If you play as a fascist, who knows… you might even be playing Hitler! In this game, you have a different goal according to your role. For example, if you’re a liberal, you will want to pass liberal policies. But if you’re a fascist, well… you can either pass fascist policies or elect Hitler!

  • EASY TO LEARN: Like all great family card games, it takes only minutes to learn...

Another super fun secret role-playing card game you absolutely have to play is Coup. In fact, this is currently one of my favorite card games for small groups, and you’ll simply have to play it to fully understand why. In Coup, players have two secret political influences. The goal? Don’t lose your influences or you’re out of the game. You have to play this game carefully so you don’t get caught in a lie, wrongly accuse another player of a lie, or even get assassinated!

If you’re not quite sick of secret role-playing games yet, I’ve got another one to introduce to you: Werewolf. In this funny card game, you will be either on the werewolf’s side or the village’s side. The goal? Keep your identity a secret, protect the village, or take over the village if you’re a werewolf! As you play this game, you and your friends will be lying and throwing accusations left and right in order to win the game. Sounds like fun, right?

8. LOVE LETTER

  • EARN THE PRINCESS'S TRUST: Become the noble Princess's confidant by delivering...
  • STRATEGIC ALLIANCES: Enlist allies, friends, and family to help you gain her...

While not necessarily a role-playing game, Love Letter is quite similar to the other deduction games mentioned above. If you’ve got anywhere between 2 and 4 players, this is a perfect game to play in a small group. The goal is to win enough affection tokens to be crowned the winner! You can either do this by being the last player standing in a round or by holding the highest-ranking card by the end of a round. This strategic card game revolves around delivering a love letter to the princess while navigating through the court with lies and deceit. What better game to get your heart pumping?

This party card game is perfect for any group of friends who love to send memes to each other, as in this game, you’ll be making your own ridiculous memes! And yep – some naught adult-themed memes as well. Played similarly to Cards Against Humanity, in this game, players must match a caption card to the photo card drawn for that round.

Does judging your friends sound like fun to you? If so, you’re gonna absolutely love Bad People, an absolutely hilarious card game. This party game is best played amongst a group of friends who already know each other. In this game, players take turns acting as the Dictator. The Dictator draws and reads a question card out loud. Then, they secretly vote who they think is best associated with that question. All other players must try their best to match that vote!

11. CODENAMES

CGE Czech Games Edition Codenames Boardgame
  • Work together to contact all of your agents before the other team
  • A perfect party game experience for game nights
  • 2-8+ player (in two teams)

Another popular party card game that I absolutely have to mention on this list is none other than Codenames. In this fun game that you can play with up to 8 players, two teams compete to decode the spymaster’s code. If you’ve never played this game before, the basics of the game are for one person in each team to act as the spymaster. The spymasters are privy to which words on a table are for the blue team and which are for the red team. The goal is for the spymaster to give one-word clues so that their team can guess the correct words to win the game! That’s a pretty basic view of the game, so check out our full rules for Codenames to find out how to play!

Want to collect 7 unicorns? Sounds pretty crazy, right? The best way to do that is to play Unstable Unicorns! In this strategic card game, players battle against each other to be the first player to collect 7 unicorns! Throughout the game, players play different cards that have various effects that may give you an advantage or disadvantage! You won’t have any friends in this game, as you’ll witness betrayals left and right, but don’t worry; unicorns are better anyway (wink wink). If you love this game and want to play with a larger group of more than 8 players, you can even buy an expansion that will make this game even more chaotic!

13. SEARCH HISTORY

  • Keep it casual - Simple gameplay makes getting started a breeze

If you really want to get to know your friends and discover how much they know about you (do you really wanna know?), play The Voting Game. In this super fun card game, all players vote for each other based on the question read out loud. Then, for each of these votes, players try to match the votes to the voter, revealing who voted for whom! When this is done, move on to the next question. Examples of questions in The Voting Game include: Who will marry someone who isn’t born yet? and Who would you want as your mom or dad?

15. SOTALLY TOBER

You know a game is absolutely hilarious when the game title matches the vibes! This is the case for Sotally Tober, a super fun drinking card game that I like to bring out at every party. As you play this game, you will be getting drunk with your friends while laughing out loud at the sheer ridiculousness of the game. The objective of the game? Take the least amount of drinks. But don’t worry. That sounds a LOT easier than it sounds. In this card game, you’ll be exposed to a variety of different cards like activity cards, skill cards, and curse cards that give you various abilities and punishments. Sounds pretty dangerous, right?

16. THE MIND

Looking for a super fun cooperative card game? One of my favorites is The Mind. But although this is a cooperative game, be careful: You can’t communicate! So, in order to win, you’ve got to be in sync with one another! In this game, from your hand of cards, you must place them from lowest to highest, with each player taking turns laying down cards. While the objective is relatively simple, the silence can be deafening and frustrations can run high when playing this fun card game!

Are you a huge fan of Exploding Kittens? Who isn’t? Well, another card game you may enjoy just as much is Exploding Minions. If you’ve played the original game before, you’ll be super familiar with this game already. The only difference is that instead of exploding kittens, you have exploding minions! Yes, exactly – minions from the Despicable Me series! In this game, players take turns drawing cards from the middle deck and trying not to blow up.

18. IF YOU HAD TO

  • 250 Cards With Horrible & Hilarious Scenarios
  • Convince The Judge Your Card Is The Worst And Win A Point
  • More Players The Better (Seriously, 10 People Would Be Chill)

If you like playing drinking games like Would You Rather, you’ll love If You Had To, which is an elevated version of the game. Since this is a card game, however, you don’t have to think as hard about which scenario is worse or better. Instead, players pick a card, and they must argue why their card is the worst card. So, you’d better brush up your debating skills! Then, the Judge must decide who wins! All players get to take turns playing the Judge in this game.

Dobble, or Spot It, is another one of my favorite funny card games. I’ve been playing this game for over 10 years, and it’s still a hoot, especially with younger players. In Dobble, the goal is to find one identical symbol between their card and the face-up card in the middle deck. All players play at the same time, so this game can get super chaotic, with players trying their best to match a symbol. While all cards will have at least one matching symbol with another, it can be pretty hard to spot!

20. DUTCH BLITZ

In this competitive card game, players race to deplete their 10-card Blitz pile as fast as possible in order to earn all the points they need to officially win the game over a few rounds. While this game can only host up to 4 people, don’t worry; there’s an expansion pack for an even more chaotic game! Dutch Blitz can be a bit complicated to get to know at first, so check out the Dutch Blitz rules.
