Beat That is definitely the craziest game in the world! After having been a hit in the United States and then in England, Beat That landed in France a few months ago for our greatest pleasure.

Accumulate points by betting on your ability to accomplish a wide variety of crazy events: catapult, jump, roll, throw, catch up, stack … 160 hilarious challenges await you to make you have a pure time of fun during your evenings with friends or family!
2. The Killer's Game
You may already know the rules of this challenge-type game which is very often played on birthday parties. It’s the perfect animation to allow guests to subtly get to know each other if they don’t already know each other. The objective of the killer game is to give the guests a secret mission at the start of the evening, so everyone participates and the game is played gradually. To do so, you need to make the guests pick a little note (or send an individual SMS) explaining their challenge, for example: “Get Fabien’s phone number” or “Make Elisa believe that you are suffering from tics” . To spice up the game, you can give a token to players who have not passed their challenges.
3. The BEER PONG
It is a must for evenings with friends, beer pong (or beer pong in English) is a game which aims to make the opposing team drink. You will understand, moderation is not a word known to the inventors of this game. Prepare on each side of a table a triangle of cups that you will have filled with beer beforehand. The goal ? Aim for the most cups of the opposing triangle using a ping pong ball. When you hit the bull’s-eye, the opponent in front of you will have to drink the glass and remove it from the table. Having all of the opposing team’s glasses drink will win the game for your team! Try not to exceed the number of 5 players per team otherwise the game may drag on for the guests. Also, consider adding a glass of water near the table to clean the ball when it falls to the ground.
Tip: Try to play this game early in the evening. Strangely, it gets harder and harder if you are already very tipsy… We remind you all the same that alcohol abuse is dangerous for your health. To be consumed in moderation therefore!
4. The photobooth
More than a simple animation, the photobooth has become the flagship accessory for birthday parties, weddings, baptisms and much more. This photo kiosk allows you and your guests to take very good quality photos and find them directly via an online gallery free to access for all the people present at the party! You can of course give access to the gallery to people who could not make it to the party, this feature will make people happy, be sure. The photobooth also allows you to share as many memories as possible by offering instant photo prints.
Renting a photo kiosk for a birthday is the opportunity to bring everyone together in front of a single lens to keep a physical AND digital trace of their birthday party. Today there are birthday photo booths at very affordable prices and they can even be a great gift idea if you don’t have one yet. They are usually supplied with some accessories to style your photos (glasses, hats, fake mustaches, etc.). The user manual is very simple, order, receive and assemble the terminal. Once done, all you have to do is adjust the background scenery, stand in front of the lens and give your best smile!

With now more than 50,000 downloads in just one year, this application has caught our attention and you will understand why… Olé main is a game available on the Play or the Apple store and is suitable for children as well as adults. The game is played very simply: select the desired game mode (mime, food, brands, celebrities, etc.) then hold the phone to your forehead. Words will appear on the screen and your friends will have to make you guess as many as possible in 1 minute flat!
When you find the word entered, you must tilt the phone down to validate your answer. Otherwise, if you want to move on to the next word, tilt the phone up. This app is free and involves everyone! You can play it as a team or individually. The little extra of this application? Your friends will be discreetly filmed during the game, you can record the video or share it on the networks. If you’re still not convinced, we’ll let you test it for yourself. Laughs guaranteed!
6. The quizzes
The traditional birthday quiz is one of the most popular games to set the mood for your party! There are all kinds of them (blind test, who am I, questions for a champion …). But our favorite is undoubtedly the quiz on the guest of honor. What could be better than testing the guests to see if they know a bit about your secret garden. To avoid sounding too narcissistic, the game must be led by someone else …
You can prepare questions on a piece of paper or make a beautiful PowerPoint for the occasion. Anyone can participate in the game and show that they know you better than anyone else. To try to balance the game out a bit, you can make teams and mix the people who are supposed to know you best with people who are a little more external to you. You will see, the people who know us best are not always the ones we think about!
The organization of the evening being a profession in its own right, we recommend that you call on an evening leader to be sure to captivate the largest possible audience during the event. Some DJs take on this mission to allow the organizers to enjoy the evening. They generally have the right equipment to keep the party in full swing (microphone, speakers, video projector, etc.). Otherwise, a very charismatic friend will do the trick too!
