What games can I play with friends in the confined space of the seating on a long flight?

Accepted answer

There are a variety of games that can be played by passing pieces of paper around, which you could do quietly and discretely. A quick search for "pencil and paper games" or "paper passing games" indicates some that work with more than two players (or pair up and have a few games going at once). Some are more strictly "games" with an element of strategy, while others are entertaining activities with no particular winner. Some examples:

  • Consequences
  • Write your own Mad Libs and hand them to other passengers to fill out. Mainly done in pairs, but people could trade off filling in alternate words.
  • Paper Telephone
  • Telephone Pictionary
  • Three word story game (write a story where everyone contributes three words at a time)
  • Dots and Boxes (an actual game)
  • Walrus (you draw the things destroying the other things)

Some other ideas are listed on papg.com and this Reddit thread.

Inspired by this question, I would suggest a physical alternative, like who can do the most pushups or who can hold the plank position for the longest time.

How about you play the game of meditation (here's a link from a quick google, if you insist on an app). Sit silently, breathe and focus on breath. Raise your levels of consciousness and everybody wins.
