With the stress of school, most students just want to hang out with their friends and have some fun. Most people go out to a party, or to dinner, but college students don’t have a lot of money so what’s the best option for them? Staying in and hanging out with friends at home. Instead of watching a movie why not have a game night. Here are five games you should play with your friends:

1. The Game of Life

The classic game of going through the motions of life sounds dull but in reality when played with a group of friends it can actually turn into a fun time. For more fun create an advance set of rules and challenges that will occur when a player lands on specific spaces.

2. Cards Against Humanity

What’s game night without this gem of a game? It’s nothing but a boring night. The game has several different sets of rules and can be played with a large group of people. Remember the tagline of the game is "A Horrible Game For Horrible People" but in reality, you'll laugh so hard you'll be rolling on the floor.

3. Exploding Kittens

“A card game for people who are into kittens and explosions and laser beams and sometimes goats.” No real kittens were harmed in the playing of this game. Exploding Kittens is the Most Backed Kickstarter, and Most Funded Game in Kickstarter history and it doesn’t disappoint. If you’re not sure about it just watch this video:

4. Jenga

Yes it’s the game with the blocks but what happens when there are several sets of them all with different rules? Pure madness. There’s a Donkey Kong version, Space Invaders, and Jenga Boom. Just pick one and play with friends, of course they’ll fall but it will be fun all in the same.

5. Twister

Yes, it sounds childish, but Twister is a fun way to break the ice between your friends. Especially the ones that don’t know each other very well.

Now that you have the games all you have to do is put together snacks or have everyone bring something they cooked themselves and some music and you’re set to have a fun night with your friends.
