The Hygge Game - Cozy Conversation

Bottom Line

This game promotes satisfaction and togetherness by posing over 300 cozy questions to friends and family. A unique and gratifying activity for parties and family gatherings.

Pros

A portable, fun game for groups of people. A gateway to sharing conversation about topics you might not otherwise discuss. It's designed for older children and adults.

Cons

It's not so much a "game" with an objective and opponents as it is an activity meant to spark conversation. If you're looking for competition, this isn't the right choice.

Bottom Line

A thought-provoking game designed for ages 10 and up. If you're looking for a way to grow your relationships offline, this is a great conversation starter.

Pros

Easily portable, and the game process is simple yet engaging. Excellent for holidays. Born out of crowdfunding, this game is a hit with folks who want something fun and different.

Cons

This isn't a game that can be played with the same people day after day due to the familiarity factor of the cards. However, it's great for once or twice a year with the family.

Bottom Line

A card game created by teachers with the goal of promoting mindfulness and social skills. Considered a "therapy" game.

Pros

Cards are big and sturdy. Though designed first for therapy purposes, they can also be used at home. These cards include fun activities, not just conversation starters.

Cons

The focus is on action more than discussion, so if you're looking for a conversation starter, this might not be the best pick.

Bottom Line

This game includes over 6,000 "totem" images you can use to express yourself, your positive perception of others, gratitude toward others, and more. A great team builder.

Pros

A positive tool for work settings as well as family and friend gatherings. Fosters communication and positive affirmations. The goal is for players to feel understood and loved.

Cons

If you have a very large team or group of co-workers, it may be best to break play down into smaller groups for greatest effectiveness.

Mindfulness is a psychological state that can bring greater satisfaction and calm to your life. The concept of hygge is similar: it embodies the notions of contentment and coziness. If you're looking for a fun way to slip more mindfulness and hygge into your life, try one of these games. Each is designed to get you thinking deeply and talking freely with others, whether you're playing with a single partner or a group. Therapists and teachers aren't the only people who find mindfulness games immensely helpful; everyone can benefit — and have a blast — with these games.
