Home-made Board Game Tournament
Turn a regular night at home into a playful and fun moment with a creative, home-made board game tournament. Not only will it cater to your partner's love for games, it will also provide both of you a much-needed break from your phones.
- The sky outside is stars-studded and serene, breath of cool November air is reflected in the steam rising from the mugs of hot chocolate on your coffee table. You and your partner are settled on the cushy dimensions of your living room carpet. The atmosphere pulsates with anticipation as you're about to kickstart your home-made board game tournament.
- Each game is filled with joyous laughter, playful teasing, and unexpected twists as you challenge each other. With each passing game, the competitive spirit only fuels your enjoyment. The evening is far from calm, but it's brimming with the fun and connection that a simple board game tournament induces.
- As the night wears on, you two are still immersed in your games, perfectly content with the company and the warm comfort of your indoor sanctuary. By the end of the evening, it does not matter who won more games. The real victory is in the shared laughs and moments, rolling the dice together, and creating an unforgettable memory.
Preparation steps:
- First, decide on the board games you are going to play. These could be traditional ones like chess, or more contemporary games like Monopoly, Scrabble or Uno. If you don't have the actual board games, don't worry. Digital versions of these games are often available for free, and one could simply print a game template, gather some household items as stand-ins, and voila!
- Second, set up a cozy little space in your living room. Arrange cushions for comfortable seating, and a small table to keep your mugs and the board games. You can also create a tournament chart where you'll track who's leading.
- Lastly, to add to the atmosphere, consider preparing a selection of your partner's favorite snacks. Remember to keep it simple and enjoyable. This game night is mainly about spending quality time together and disconnecting from your routine.

Some tips:
- To enhance your board game tournament, consider adding some unique twists to your games - for instance, the loser of each game could share an unusual fact about themselves, or receive a fun dare.
- Consider setting your phones aside, in a different room perhaps. This could help you in significantly minimizing distractions and maximizing your 'us' time.
- Lastly, while the essence of this date idea is competition, make sure to keep the fun alive. Encourage each other, laugh at your silly blunders, be gracious in defeat and modest in victory. After all, it's not about asserting dominance, but about having a great time together.
