The holidays are a good time to unplug and partake in activities that don’t involve a room full of people blankly staring at a screen for hours on end. If you want to spend some quality time with your loved ones this Thanksgiving, what better way to do it then by crushing them enjoying some friendly competition in a variety of board games?
Here are our top picks of games to play this holiday:
Fluxx
Fluxx is a fun card game, with rules that are — as the name implies — constantly in flux[x]. A round of Fluxx starts simply: each player draws one card and plays one card on their turn. But as the game progresses, new objectives and modifiers get chaotically thrown around. Rules change from turn to turn and the way to win shifts constantly, making sure that no two games are ever quite the same. Plus, in addition to the standard edition, Fluxx comes in a whole host of themed versions, ranging from pirates to science fiction to licensed properties such as Batman, Monty Python, and Firefly.
Fluxx is available pretty much anywhere board games are sold (including Amazon). Try mixing cards from different sets for extra craziness!
