Fun Batman Party Games

Wednesday, June 13, 2007

Batman party games can be a great way to keep up the theme of the party. Here are a couple of great games that fit well with the winged crusader’s party plans.

The first game is often called ‘J’accuse’ but you can change the name to fit the Batman party theme. Perhaps something like ‘Gotham City Trial’ will fit better. Pick one person to be the accused at the trial and send them out of the room. Then gather everyone together and have the ‘witnesses’ make fake accusations of crimes the accused committed in Gotham City. Samples can be, ‘He collaborated with the Joker to steal my Doll from Batman.’ Or ‘She raided the Gotham City bank to get my allowance.’ Make sure to write down this list of accusations so you don’t forget and send for the accused to come back into the room.

Then read off the list of accusations to the accused at the Batman party and then tell them they must try to guess who made what accusation based on what was said. As soon as the accused gets one matched correctly they will be released and the person who was found out must be the next accused and is sent out of the room.

The next Batman party game, called ‘Zoom Bat mobile’ is fun for the kids while being a sit down game so the adults can get a chance to relax a bit. Have everyone sit in a circle. Tell them that the group is going to help the bat mobile get going so batman can stop villains. You’ll start the car by saying zoom and everyone else will keep it going by repeating zoom person to person around the circle. Then you’ll try and get the car into second gear by trying to pass the word along a little bit faster and a little bit faster. To stop the bat mobile any person can stick out their arms and yell ‘Eek!’ when the zoom gets to them. As soon as this happens though the bat mobile has to go into reverse. So the person, who just said zoom, must say it again and the person before that and so on until the bat mobile gets going at high speeds again.

Anybody can stop the bat mobile at any time. The only rule is that it automatically has to go into reverse. You’ll find the kids at the Batman party really get into the game and start having a lot of fun playing around with the imaginary bat mobile they got started.
