Soulcalibur VI
Soulcalibur VI is a fun one-on-one fighter that rewards button-mashing with spectacular combos and shiny visuals. It is only two players at a time, but the game is as fun to watch, as it is to play. Not to mention players can also craft their own characters and pretty much make them look like anyone they like. Since button-mashing is a legitimate skill in the game, you don't need experienced players to handle the reigns. Moreover, this game gets better when there is a little tipple involved.

Evil Apples
Evil apples is not a game you want to play around friends, who can't stomach some crass humour. The game is similar to Cards Against Humanity. There is a question put up and you have to choose the best answer from the random selection of cards you have. You can play the game with two other friends. With more people, you can just form teams. The cards in the game range from hilarious to downright gross, but context of the right question always makes for funny answers. The game is free, but additional card sets cost money.

NBA 2K Playgrounds 2
If you are looking for a nice arcade sports game, NBA2K Playgrounds 2 turns the complex game of basketball into a simple fun 2-versus-2 contest between friends. The explosions, power-ups and the bobble-headed players really sell the arcade experience. Though simplified, this game still favours skilled players, who can time their shots and slam dunk like a champ. Over the course of the game the teams can build up a power-up called Lottery Pick that once activated can give the team a game changing advantage that includes double points for shots, cursing your opponents and adding a thin layer of ice to your basket, so shots just slip out. It's the kind of advantages that can bring about huge arguments and that makes this a wonderful game to play with friends.

Reverse Charades
Reverse Charades is just like regular charades, but here, the entire team acts out the answer, while one person guesses.

The game lets you select the number of teams, time per round and even the number of passes available to each team. The game is ideal for large and small groups of people.
Platform: Android, iOS
