Hi folks! Currently on vacation with my family and we're getting tired of the party games I own. Looking for a couple of suggestions! Some caveats:

  • No word based games, we already have and love Just One, Codenames, etc
  • No social deduction games, they hate them
  • Preferably language independent or with few text dependence. We have Portuguese and german people in the group and not everyone understands English!
  • Low weight/rules
  • Supports 7 players!

Thanks a lot friends!

  • Show Me Your Sound
  • Rock The Beat
  • Obscurio

Are all fun language independent easy to learn party games that work for 2-8 or 4-12 players.

No word based games

Does that also include other clue giving games such as the following?

  • Top Ten
  • Monikers/Times Up
  • Concept

I feel like they're different enough to justify getting them and they're extremely funny, especially the first three. Top Ten has cards that are open information and can be translated so out of those it would be the best fit, the other ones are language dependent.
