We have the same game as "Time's up" in Russia, but we call it simply "the hat". What you do is each player write some words, usually 10, and then everyone puts them in a hat. And then you have the same 3 rounds, and the words also stay the same between rounds. I didn't know there was a tabletop adaptation of it!
I own two copies of band the dice game so I can play with my whole class. Everyone in my class loves bang. I also own deception. It always seems that I have some unholy power to guess the murderer every time
I recommend picking up one of those small single-shot nerf guns along with your copy of Secret Hitler, it really adds some gravitas to the moment when someone gets the "execute a player" fascist policy.
I've played Monikers, and it sounds really similar to times up title recall, but the cards are a bit different than just titles of things. It's one of the games my friends often ask me to bring to play.
@@ProZD they're overall pretty different experiences, even though there's a lot of thematic and gameplay overlap. the card game is overall more strategic and slower paced than the dice one, better with more serious gamers as opposed to casual gamers.
@@moonspear @ProZD I totally agree. We play the card version with my friends nearly every week, and sometimes 5 people games take more than two hours to complete, since we take the game way too seriously. Doesn't help that we also sometimes use multiple character cards at the same time, so if you're lucky, you can have endless turns where you can take a card from the pile whenever you run out, and you can shoot infinite bangs per turn. But even when playing by the rules, it is a super fun strategy game.
Secret hitler is propably my favourite game ever, including video games. Also i can recommend doing troll rounds. I recently played a round with only liberal roles but not enough liberal policies for them to win. Everyone yelled at each other even though they all were on the same team. Got shot though, but still had a lot of fun.
My friends and I played with the "print and play" version for a long time before the official release happened. We joked about doing a round where everyone was Hitler and joked about calling it "Oops! All Hitlers." It would only work until someone was elected chancellor after the third facist policy but boy would it be hilarious until then.
@@skittykay jokes on you i tried this one too a while back, But i dont remember much because i have a sh*tty memory. Edit: didn't have such a cool name for it though. Edit2: gonna photoshop hitler on the "oops all berries" box now
If you’ve never played Secret Hitler it might sound kinda weird cause it’s hard to explain, but it is insanely fun once you get into a game and start getting the hang of it. 10/10 recommend.
Cheaper version of Title Recall that is ALWAYS a hit at a party is fish bowl. Its the same game as Title Recall, but you have the players handwrite clues on pieces of paper put into a hat or a fish bowl if you have one. you can make it themed or totally random, and its fun to see what some people come up with, like "what the heck is a paddywagon?" Paper and Pencil/Pen and thats it, free otherwise. Every other player is on a team and we play the same 3 rounds that ProZD describes, but we do charades in the 2nd round, but it doesn't matter. Its also saved me a few times when I forget to bring a game, everyone has scrap paper laying around and a bowl to put stuff in.
One my group of friends really enjoy is a game called Throw Throw Burrito and yes it does involve throwing foam burritos at your friends. Absolute chaos every time
“Who doesn’t love dice?” *i roll a one in DnD* “AHHHHHHHHH!” *translation: “I hate these easy-to-lose things that give me flashbacks of geometry and stats.”*
Hey great video @ProZD! I am glad to hear you talk about board games on your channel that's awesome. I wanted to recommend the game Monikers. Times Up! is based on a public domain game--usually called celebrities or "fishbowl," so there are lots of versions that have these same rules--with the three rounds guessing the same cards with more restrictions in the later rounds. Monikers is by far the best version. It has the funniest cards in a nice compact box and on all the cards in addition to just the title of the person or whatever is a descriptive summary--so, if somebody does not know the reference they can just read the card instead of being stuck as a clue giver or having to pass.
i like this list, i def love secret role games a lot. this also makes me miss Wil Wheaton's TableTop series bc that was my source in fun & interesting board games.
Deception is loads of fun. One of my favorites when our board game group gets together. I'm glad you described the Bang dice game, gonna have to give it a shot. 🤠
If anyone is looking for more hidden role games, check out shadow hunters! A bit more mechanically deep than secret hitler, but still easy to teach it when the teacher and learner are both a little drunk
Review "Discworld the Board Game". Basically, it's a hidden role game, with different channels having different winning condition. It's quite complex, but it's also very fun.
That last game has the exact same rules as the game Monikers. It's a two team game though, not teams of two. And as the name suggests, instead of titles, it's people/characters. So much fun. Our favorite party game lol
@@Xbsnsiisywgwbwkapapaiuw888 Isn't that just Monopoly but you don't start with any money and only like, two squares aren't owned by a third party from the start?
I really want to try these games out now, especially deception. I'm really into board games and one of em thats really funny with a group of people is Telestrations. You could do a point-system or just play for kicks and laughs. It's hilarious to see someone give a word, draw it, and then that other person draw something completely different and then pass it on to the next person xd Another good one is Concept which is sorta like charades but you're giving visual points instead of acting things out.
One fun one that is just goofy is “epic spell wars of the battle wizards at mt skullzfyre” Essentially, you all are battling to be the last wizard standing and each have to build spells in order to destroy each other
“Two rooms and a boom” get in on this my dude! You need 8+ players ideally. Hidden/interchangeable roles as well so you can mix it up if tactics get stale between your play group.
i recognized the foam gun from when you guested at AH and boy howdy i really want that game. also i love this video bc i dont have a tv in my condo and i really want to entertain my friends with more party games!!
I got my boyfriend Deception: murder in Hong Kong for Christmas this year since we often host game nights between friends. It's a really fun game and we are really enjoying it. Being game master can be a big challenge and the murderer also needs to be clever and choose a smart combination of weapon and clue!
Haha me and my family have been playing Times Up for years without knowing it was even a real game. Really good family game but honestly you don't need the game, we use people or characters names and it's tons of fun each write like 4 names throw em in a bowl and off ya go.
Please, if you've never played it, try Sequence! It may look like an old people's game, but no! It's simply the most fun game, _ever._ It's simple, but the replayability is endless. You can play with as little as two people or with a bunch of people who can be put into teams in different ways. In fact, my brother and his gf play by themselves every single day. It's simply that good.
Personally speaking, bang the card game is really fun. I can't tell you how many fun late nights back during boy scout camps I had because of this game. Make sure you get the expansion, and change the rule to allow everyone 7 cards though.
I remember playing a huge game of secret Hitler in my high school English class when learning about the book animal farm, so it was called secret stalen and it ruined so many relationships and made us hate our teacher for making us all go through that😂😂
there's so many good board games out right now, this medium has really come into its own
Yeah it's a shame though that when you try to get an outsider to play one they immediately think of monopoly and they get turned off straight away.
"Gathering of folks and freinds" i love playing board games at my intervention
Top 5 Board Games For Interventions:
1 - Viticulture
2 - Grand Cru
3 - Die Weinhandler
4 - My Little Vineyard
5 - just, straight up, pouring booze on people
"We've called this intervention to talk about your board game problem."
I’m more of a drinking game guy when it comes to interventions, but you do you.
"Death and dice, that's the best kind of game." Yeah, I love D&D too!
We have the same game as "Time's up" in Russia, but we call it simply "the hat". What you do is each player write some words, usually 10, and then everyone puts them in a hat.

How do you decieve
The murderer is also a detective so they are trying to throw the others on the wrong trail
I recommend picking up one of those small single-shot nerf guns along with your copy of Secret Hitler, it really adds some gravitas to the moment when someone gets the "execute a player" fascist policy.
Always love a visit from Sophie.
“5 Board Games i love”
Thumbnail:” Pointing a gun at you
And you should too!
The card game Coup is also really fun.
I love Coup. There's an app version too.
I've played Monikers, and it sounds really similar to times up title recall, but the cards are a bit different than just titles of things. It's one of the games my friends often ask me to bring to play.
Wait you haven't played Bang the card game?! You should definitely give it a try!
yeah, at some point, i'd like to, i just don't really need to personally buy it since i already own the dice game

@@ProZD it's our favorite board game in my family, I really recommend it as well!
1. Cash n Guns
2. Secret Hitler
3. Bang! the dice game
4. Deception: Murder in Hong Kong
5. Time's Up: Title Recall
"Guns and Money"
@@EpicWolverine lol woops fixed that

Beefed up version of Bang with hundreds of characters
Secret hitler is propably my favourite game ever, including video games.

Glad you recovered, hope it was worth it
I haven't watched the video yet I'm crying help
Oh god, I just scrolled down to comment how much I hate this game and saw this on top comments lol.
Board Games more like Relationship Enders
Cant end a relationship when you dont have one....help
if you play the wrong ones. like, you know that there are cooperative games, too, right?
Only UNO does that... 😂
Yeah last board game I was a part of two people starting hitting each other outside. Lol it was less violent then that sounds
Ender's Board Game
"I like that there's a good number of fascists in the game" /r/nocontext
Michael Jäger edit out “in the game”
Lol.xdd
The subtle music in the background is my favorite part of this.

*Holy shit Sung-Won, put down the gun we can work this out!!!!*
Telestrations has always been a big hit at my game nights. Nothing but great laughs
Man I enjoy watching your stuff. You're so nice and genuine and I appreciate it. Keep it up man!

“Who doesn’t love dice?”
*i roll a one in DnD*
“AHHHHHHHHH!”

Fuck, I love them all. I know them all and want them all.

I'm glad you described the Bang dice game, gonna have to give it a shot. 🤠
I once played times up with a group having so much fun we woke the neighbors. It was 3 am and some alcohol was involved so it only adds to the fun
Just came across your channel, when we thought we have seen a lot :P. Great work! Love Deception! Love your board game stuff :)
When you played cash n guns with achievement hunter was one of my favorite videos. Was awesome.
If anyone is looking for more hidden role games, check out shadow hunters! A bit more mechanically deep than secret hitler, but still easy to teach it when the teacher and learner are both a little drunk
Review "Discworld the Board Game". Basically, it's a hidden role game, with different channels having different winning condition. It's quite complex, but it's also very fun.
The extention to Bang: The Dice game, which is called 'old saloon' makes it even better!
Deception is one of my favorites. Easy to explain and great with big groups. Always looking for new games to try. Great video.
Don't forget about Resistance and Coup. To increase the fact that your friends will never trust you again.
that thumbnail is pure gold
All games get a 75% increase in fun if you take a few shots before you start to play.
You a suppa cool guy thanks son I preesh the deets on these mad boardies
Most Wanted by North Star games is also FANTASTIC :) 2-8 players bluffing/poker style western theme. Our most played game of 2018.
Time's Up is like Monikers but not just titles, more meme/contemporary phrases/people. Check it out!
That last game has the exact same rules as the game Monikers. It's a two team game though, not teams of two. And as the name suggests, instead of titles, it's people/characters. So much fun. Our favorite party game lol
I too bring out a children's toy gun at parties and it's always a hit when I bring it out at a gathering of folks and friends.
I'm also in prison.
Similarly, I brought one to my local high school to play with.
I, too, am an prison.
plus 10 for the cuteness at the end.. (not talking about the cat)
Ayeee impeccable timing my dude! I was just searching online for some good board games to buy!
Loved seeing you play Cash n Guns with the Achievement Hunter Boys. Really enjoyable
_you didn’t even have fortnite monopoly smh_
Or Monopoly For Millenials
@coffee yeah
@@Xbsnsiisywgwbwkapapaiuw888 Isn't that just Monopoly but you don't start with any money and only like, two squares aren't owned by a third party from the start?
Is that a thing?
@@austinfletchermusic millennial monopoly is indeed a thing. Same with Cheaters edition.
Bang the card game is fun but it takes a few rounds to get the hang of the rules
Bang! Is so fun, but I've only ever played with family friends that have very loud children, so it was complete chaos xD. It's really fun
Is no one going to talk about how the thumbnail is just him pointing a fake foam gun toward the people of the internet to see?
I really want to try these games out now, especially deception. I'm really into board games and one of em thats really funny with a group of people is Telestrations. You could do a point-system or just play for kicks and laughs. It's hilarious to see someone give a word, draw it, and then that other person draw something completely different and then pass it on to the next person xd
Another good one is Concept which is sorta like charades but you're giving visual points instead of acting things out.
Good choices! Really want to play Bang!: the dice game but never pulled the trigger. Deception: Murder in Hong Kong is one of my absolute favorites!
One fun one that is just goofy is “epic spell wars of the battle wizards at mt skullzfyre”
Essentially, you all are battling to be the last wizard standing and each have to build spells in order to destroy each other
"If you don't like lying" hah, I love lying
I would love to see you play one of these party games on camera. Would no doubt be hilarious!
Loved that video of you playing board games at achievement hunter! So cool to hear you enjoyed the game so much that you had to go buy it
“Two rooms and a boom” get in on this my dude! You need 8+ players ideally. Hidden/interchangeable roles as well so you can mix it up if tactics get stale between your play group.
The thumbnail is threatening me to get some of these games, and you know what? I think I will
Please make more of these!
Have you ever played Cranium Dark? It's always a blast when I take it out at a gathering
Russian rullet is a personal favorite. It’s very messy though.
This video peaked my interest in board games.
i recognized the foam gun from when you guested at AH and boy howdy i really want that game.
also i love this video bc i dont have a tv in my condo and i really want to entertain my friends with more party games!!
Deception is so good!
Also you should try Decrypto for sure (if you like Codenames)
I really recommend for Party games:
Just One(It's a hit always for me)
Take 5(Plays up to 10)

My favorite party board game is "Which One of My Friend Is Way Too Competitive?"
Play cooperative games
I feel bad now not playing any of these board games....
Those games definitely look like a blast
And as always the cat steals the show
Commenting on how I played that one game he mentioned and how its really awesome and simply the BEST, YOU HAVE TO TRY IT!
Bang! The dice game is way more fun than the card one imo.
two rooms and boom, is a nice one for bigger groups 11+
this is pretty wholesome
Board games are SO underrated
when you started the list with cash n guns i knew this was gonna be a good list
Haha me and my family have been playing Times Up for years without knowing it was even a real game. Really good family game but honestly you don't need the game, we use people or characters names and it's tons of fun each write like 4 names throw em in a bowl and off ya go.

I want to see some more of your shirts, like they're always so cool! Please shift your camera downward so I can see what they say or look like! 💝
Oh man, it seems so cool to have friends and play those games. Too bad I'm like super lonely

At my family gatherings, us children all collect in the basement and play Cards Against Humanity and then Clue when we get tired of it.
