Games for mixed ages
When the players are 5, 9, 35 and 70, most games are unfair to somebody. These are not.
Luck levels everyone
- Snakes and ladders
- Ludo
- Bingo
- Beggar my neighbour
- Beetle
Children often win
- Pairs (memory)
- Dobble (Spot It!)
- Snap
- Hide and seek
Teams of old and young
- Charades
- Quiz with a children’s round
- Treasure hunt Readers paired with non-readers.
- Marble Rumble: Team Play Partners share a score, and the youngest can turn on Easy help for their own corner. We make Marble Rumble, so of course it is on this list. Everything else here is someone else’s game, and we have no connection to any of them.
