Three puzzles. One submission. The best dinner party your table has had in years.
The collection
Each game is a complete world. Print it, scatter it, and let the evening unfold.
Space · Bureaucratic absurdism
Earth has been selected. The Council is not easily impressed.
Planet Earth has been nominated for the Interstellar Games. The selection committee is unconvinced. Your table has 45 minutes to submit a complete and flawless application before the Council loses interest entirely.
Cosy mystery · Neighbourhood drama
Gerald is missing. Everyone at this table had access.
The Grain & Glory Baking Collective's 23-year-old sourdough starter has disappeared. His jar was empty. The lid was on. The jar was clean. Every person who had access to Gerald's location is seated at this table.
Diplomacy · Group chat gone wrong
A message was sent. Two minutes later, it was deleted.
Three summits postponed. Two ambassadors have requested reassignment. One state has changed its timezone. Determine what was in that message — and why it was sent at 22:03 on a Tuesday evening in a group chat called Global Affairs.
The method
No app. No subscription. No cleanup.
Purchase and receive your PDF instantly. Everything your table needs is in one file.
Print at home or at any print shop. Cut out the cards and documents. A standard home printer works fine.
Scatter the materials before your guests arrive. Everything should look like a lot of paperwork, not a game.
Someone reads the opening letter aloud. The timer begins. The Collective is watching. It always is.
A dinner party game. It also happens to be excellent.
The Dinner Games makes printable dinner games for adults who love a good evening with good company. Each game plays in under an hour and requires nothing but a printer, scissors, and the willingness to take a good mystery seriously.
