About this wheel
Families with different ages and tastes rarely agree on a game. One person wants a long strategy game while another wants something short. A random pick gives everyone an equal say, and it makes sure that each game on the shelf gets used.
The starter list includes classic board, card and active games. Edit it to match what you own, and remove anything that takes too long for a weeknight.
How to use it
- List the games you can play right now, with equipment on hand.
- Remove games that need more players than you have.
- Spin the wheel.
- Play the game that comes up.
- Spin again after the round for the next game.
Ways to customise it
- Add a time limit to each game, such as "Uno (20 min)"
- Add a weight to short games so they come up more often on school nights
- Add outdoor games for a summer version
- Make a wheel just for the youngest players
Tips
Agree before the spin that the result stands. If anyone really cannot play, let them swap with one veto per night.
Use the name wheel to choose who goes first or who is the scorekeeper.
