Spark Up Your Diwali & Cocktail Nights with Fun Games and Festive Deals!

 


As the festive season approaches, it's time to come together with friends and family, brighten up your home, and revel in the joy of celebrations. Diwali isn't just about lights, sweets, and blessings; it's also the perfect opportunity to unleash your playful side with some enjoyable and interactive games. Whether you're hosting a Diwali card party or a cocktail night with loved ones, we've put together a list of thrilling games that can make your evening truly memorable!

Here are five to six fun-filled games that are perfect for Diwali and cocktail nights, and to spice it up, we’ve thrown in a couple of drink games too!


Teen Patti: The Classic Card Game

No Diwali party is complete without the legendary Teen Patti! This game of skill and luck has been a long-standing tradition at Diwali get-togethers. Teen Patti is played with a deck of 52 cards, and it’s similar to Poker but much simpler. Each player is dealt three cards, and the goal is to have the best three-card hand or bluff your way to win.


How to Play:

  • Each player places an initial bet.
  • Players can either “see” or “blind” their cards, placing bets accordingly.
  • The best hand wins the pot, and players can fold or raise the bet as the game progresses.

Teen Patti is a game that brings people together, creating an exciting and competitive atmosphere perfect for a Diwali night.


Bluff: Don’t Let Your Friends Fool You!

Bluff is perfect for your Diwali or cocktail party if you enjoy fast-paced, mind-twisting games! This card game is all about calling each other’s bluff and being a convincing liar.


How to Play:

  • The aim is to get rid of all your cards by placing them face down and declaring them as a particular number.
  • Other players can choose to call your bluff or let it slide.
  • If caught bluffing, you must pick up all the cards in the pile. If not, the person who called the bluff picks up the cards!

It’s a game that encourages laughter, banter, and plenty of sneaky strategies!


Tambola: A Diwali Favorite

This classic game is a crowd-pleaser at any party and can easily liven up your Diwali night. Tambola (also known as Housie) is a game of numbers and luck. The host announces random numbers, and players mark them off on their tickets. The thrill lies in waiting for your numbers to be called and competing with others to win exciting prizes!


Winning Options:

  • Full house
  • First five numbers
  • Corners
  • Middle row

You can even add a festive twist by offering themed prizes or vouchers from Troveas!


Kings: The Ultimate Cocktail Night Drinking Game

Want to add some fun to your cocktail nights? Kings is the ultimate drinking game that combines a deck of cards with dares and challenges, perfect for a great time with friends.


How to Play:

  • Spread a deck of cards face down around a cup in the center.
  • Each card represents a rule (e.g., 2 means "you," 4 is "floor," 7 is "heaven," etc.).
  • Draw a card, follow the rule, and keep the drinks flowing!

This game is sure to keep the spirits high, literally and figuratively, throughout the night!


Never Have I Ever: Spice Up Your Drink Game

Looking to spice up your cocktail night? Give Never Have I Ever a try. It's a drinking game that reveals fun (and sometimes hilarious) secrets about your friends!


How to Play:

  • Each player takes turns saying something they’ve never done before.
  • Anyone who has done that thing takes a sip of their drink.
  • The more rounds you play, the more interesting (or outrageous) the confessions get!

It’s a lighthearted game that will keep everyone entertained and laughing.


Antakshari: The Musical Game

Diwali nights are incomplete without singing and traditional fun! Antakshari is a game that brings out the hidden singers in everyone. Divide your guests into teams and get ready to reminisce with Bollywood songs, old and new.


How to Play:

  • One team starts by singing a song.
  • The next team has to sing another song that begins with the last letter of the previous song.
  • Teams continue taking turns until someone gets stuck!

This game brings out the nostalgia of family gatherings and is the perfect way to involve everyone, from elders to kids.


Bonus Tip: Add a Festive Twist with Diwali Drinks

To complement the games, serve some festive cocktails or mocktails that keep the party mood alive. You can get creative with drinks like Mango Margarita, Pomegranate Punch, or even a Spiced Old Fashioned.
