GAME NIGHT

Keep these fun game apps on hand if you’re staying in or organising a gathering with friends (virtually or in a small group)!

#1 Heads Up!

If you love charades, Heads Up! will be right up your alley. Your phone will show a card that you can’t see; other players then have to try to mime the person or thing on the card. You’ll need to guess what your card says before time runs out.

#2 Houseparty

This one got plenty of buzz during the Circuit Breaker. You can hang out with friends online while video-chatting and taking part in fun quizzes or games. After signing up, allow the app to access the contacts in your phone or your Facebook friends list, and then you just swipe up on the screen to see your chat feed and join a party.

#3 Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp

Animal Crossing allows you to interact with animal friends, build custom furniture and gather resources while managing your own campsite.

#4 Bunch

Bunch not only allows for video-chatting but has a large variety of multiplayer games to play: Flappy Lives, Draw Party, Trivia, Bunch Pool and more!

#5 Draw Something

Want to test your drawing skills? With Draw Something, all you have to do is choose a word to draw for your friends to guess. It allows for remote connection and is fun and entertaining.

#6 Smule

Miss singing your lungs out at karaoke? Smule gives you the chance to sing with friends and even celebrities. It’s great for beginners as it comes with interactive features to show if you’re singing in the right key and pitch.
