6 Fun Relationship Games for Couples to Feel Connected In 2023

Relationship games can spice up your union, making it fun and exciting rather than dull and boring.

As they say, intimacy happens hours before you enter the bedroom. It’s the playfulness, the true connection of two souls, and the nurturing of each others’ love tanks that play the most integral parts in intimacy.

Here are some wholesome games you can play with your partner to make your relationship more intimate and fun.

1. Twenty questions

This game is classic for a reason – it’s so effective in building intimacy. It’s also pretty simple. You and your partner alternately ask each other questions and vow to be honest with your answers.

You often see this game in text conversations, drinking sessions, and basically any setting, as long as you want to have fun!

Enjoying this game with your partner will allow you both to get to know one another deeper. But if that doesn’t sound fun, then you can also ask sexual questions. Some examples of questions you could ask include: “Did you ever fake an orgasm?”, “What’s one secret you haven’t told me?” or, “What’s your greatest worry?”

Just make sure you play this with a light heart and never ever turn the game sour by digging into sensitive topics like cheating or past disagreements.

2. Chore wheel

Weekend household cleaning can be a bummer, or it can be fun. If you notice that neither of you is looking forward to it, make it exciting by having a chore wheel. It makes something as dull as doing chores into something more exciting.

Make a spinning wheel or buy one online and then write the basic chores on it, such as throwing out the trash, cleaning the bathroom, mowing the lawn, etc. Each of you then spins for the chores you will do that day.

Whoever finishes first will be the winner and can decide what movie to watch or what food to eat for dinner.

3. Roll the dice

Buy a pair of dice and get a piece of paper. On your paper, make two columns. On the first column, list down twelve loving commands *tickle, kiss, bite, nibble, sing, etc.* and on the second column, list down places or body parts *bathroom, street, restaurant, cinema, ear, etc.*

We promise you won’t regret a thing! It’s going to be a fun *and wild* night for both of you.

4. Relationship hangman

This is just like the all too familiar hangman game, except the words to be guessed have something to do with your relationship. When you’re waiting for your order at a restaurant, or if you’re on a plane, simply get your pen and paper and start drawing boxes like the wheel of fortune.

If you want your partner to guess the Bahamas because that’s where you had your honeymoon, draw seven boxes. When the hangman is formed, and your partner still hasn’t guessed the word, they lose.

To make this more fun, you can create a consequence for the person who loses, such as washing the dishes or massaging the other person for 10 minutes.

5. Cook-off

Look, you don’t need to be a professional chef to enjoy this relationship. In fact, it’s an enjoyable way to spend time with your partner while also being competitive. Invite friends or family over for a great feast but turn it into a game between you and your dearly beloved.

Compete on the main dish, the desserts, the hors d’oeuvres, and even cocktails. Just like the chore wheel above, this adds spice to your daily grind. Not to mention, you and your partner get to taste many yummy recipes in the process.

6. One word, one answer

This is one of the relationship games that works similarly to twenty questions. Who says asking questions isn’t fun? If you feel like reminiscing and want to go down memory game, this is the perfect game to play with your partner.

It can help you build intimacy as you remember how your relationship progressed over time and the many milestones you surpassed together. Basically, you start with any word, and the other responds with another word to build the sentence. Use both your words and answers to go down memory lane.
