To have a great time with your friends, you don’t need to be in the same room as them. These online party games are the perfect option for buddy groups to have a wonderful night from the comfort of their own apartments rather than going out. We’ve selected the top multiplayer online games for everyone’s convenience, including anything from the original online trivia phenom You Don’t Know Jack, tried-and-true favourites like Scrabble, Monopoly, and Risk, character-based competitions, and a tonne of entertaining drinking games are all available.

The best party games online are:
1. Jackbox Games
Anyone else have memories of playing You Don’t Know Jack together around the family computer? No? Only us? Huh. However, the pioneering virtual-trivia business Jackbox now offers a number of online party games that you can play on your PC with up to ten other players simultaneously while using your tablet or smartphone as a controller. We recommend purchasing one of Jack’s party packs, which come with five games and cost between $25 and $30. These games range from hidden-identity whodunits and quizzes to doodle and joke competitions (like the wildly famous Quiplash and Drawful).

Adam Feldman of Time Out provided an excellent analysis of Houseparty that is absolutely worth reading. But for our purposes, here’s the short version: The popular video chat app also features a few games, including Quick Draw, Chips and Guacamole, and Heads Up! (only the #trending deck is free; additional decks can be purchased). Install the app on your phone or tablet, then start requesting matches from your friends. If you want advice from a professional, check out Shaye Weaver’s list of the top apps games.

5. BOMB
Back then, I was familiar with this game by its quite obvious name, Movie Actor Movie. I’ve determined that this name was probably entirely made up by me or anybody I was friends with at the time after additional investigation (read: Google). It seems to go by the name BOMB. Anyway, it’s really entertaining, and this is how it goes: The process goes as follows: someone names a movie, someone else names an actor from that movie, someone else names a movie starring that actor, and so on. It’s against the rules to mention celebrities or movies more than once in a round. You receive a letter if you are unable to identify the following person or movie. You lose if you spell out BOMB. You win if you’re the last person standing.
6. Word-based social games
Looking for word games that you can play alone (there’s nothing wrong with a one-person party), against others, or even in epic battles with a large group of people? Along with Words with Friends, a game that is good for groups, and Word Blitz on Facebook, there is Scrabble GO (essentially Boggle with Scrabble-like scoring).
