Gift Swap
3–5 players · 15 min · 8+
Join a festive gift exchange where every box might be a hit, a dud, or a quirky party extra. Swap wrapped gifts, then choose: reveal now or save it for later. Will you walk away with the best haul, or become the king of terrible gifts?
In this game, players take turns to swap a gift with an opponent, and decide whether to unwrap it or keep it sealed for swapping again later. When at least one player’s gifts are all unboxed, the game ends immediately, and the one with the highest score wins!
There are good gifts (positive points), bad gifts (minus points), and party props that reward the collectors. But beware, collecting enough bad gifts can turn you into the King of the Bad Gifts and win the game!
