Office party games can be a means of lightening the mood around what can be a dull and tedious office atmosphere. Office parties are typically held during holidays, such as Christmas or Thanksgiving, during times of the year where the weather is warm like the summer, or during a special time for the company's year, such as the company's anniversary.
Office party games are typically very loose affairs that get coworkers to socialize with each other and become more friendly. Some games build teamwork, such as dividing into groups to solve a puzzle, or they build relations with one another, such as games in which a person must talk to others for clues to win a game. All of these games are fun exercises that also build a comradery between co-workers within the office.
Office Party Game Favorites
1. Who Am I?
Each office member randomly selects the name of a famous person and, without looking, has the name stuck to his/her back. The players then walk around the room asking fellow office members question to try and figure out who their famous person is. The person may ask any question except for 'Who am I?' Once the player figures out who he/she is, they are finished and allowed to sit down. The game only ends once every person in the office figures out their celebrity name. http://party-games-etc.com/office/
2. Statue
In this game, one person at the beginning of the party is secretly selected to be the Statue. At any point during the party, that person will be pretend to be a statue and stop moving during whatever he/she may be doing. Once other office members notice that person is a statue, then they too must start becoming statues. This continues until just one person is left that hasn't become a statue. That final person is then required to either be the statue next round or perform an embarrassing task if they do not wish to be a statue.http://www.officepartygames.net/
3. Guess the Movie
Before the party, each guest is to write a movie down on a slip of paper. Before beginning, everyone divides up into pairs. One pair starts the game by randomly selected a movie out of a hat and enacting a scene from that movie. The other pairs try to guess what movie it is. The pair that gets it first gets a point. The game goes on until every pair has had a turn at acting. The pair with the most points at the end of the game wins a prize. http://www.officepartygames.net/
