Exploding Kittens
Cat moms and dads don’t have to worry as no kittens were harmed in this game. Players take turns picking cards from a deck until someone lands on an exploding kitten. There’s even catnip sandwiches, lasers, and kitten yoga cards.
Cards Against Humanity

Dixit
“A picture is worth a thousand words” in this game as the pictures tell a story. Each round a storyteller says a phrase or word to match an image on their card and the other players must guess the image the storyteller used to create their tale. Just make sure your card isn’t too obvious or you won’t get any points.
