With everyone online most of the time, maybe it is time to take a break and go offline to play some family-friendly local card games that all of us true-blue Singaporeans would love. Whether you like strategy, fast-paced, or adrenaline-filled games, these games will be great for bonding with the family.
The Singaporean Dream
Just how far do you think you will go to be the perfect Singaporean? With The Singaporean Dream card game, bribe, cheat or sabotage other players to achieve your goals! To begin, adopt an identity from various Singaporean personalities available. You could be the ultimate Aunty, a sassy Micro-influencer, or even a regular CBD Office Lady.
Next, draw and play actions cards and collect as many Singaporean Dreams to win the game. Your path to fulfilling these dreams will not be without bumps as other players will be disrupting these plans along the way which is sure to be relatable and fun for the whole family.
Chope!
Singaporeans love to eat. But where there is love, there is war. Although, there are no packets of tissue involved, this game pokes fun at Singapore’s hawker centre ‘chope’ culture and is almost as intense as the real thing. For those who do not know, Chope! is a table-grabbing, food-snatching push-your-luck game about Singaporean food culture by Daryl Chow.
Before you order your meals, make sure to reserve a table with your ’tissue card’’ to ensure that as many tables as possible are ‘chope-d’. Then, to win the game, collect all of your favourite hawker dishes and snacks in full sets. Just be sure to watch out for pesky black mynahs that will come flying your way, tying to sabotage your game.
Bye Bye Virus
Bye Bye Virus is an educational game inspired by real-life events. Educate your family while also learning more about the real world issue of maintaining good hygiene so that we are all well-protected from the virus. In this game, you will collect supplies and follow rules to stay virus free.
With oddly familiar scenarios like panic buying, quarantine and more, engage in behaviours that will ensure that the virus stays far away from you to win the game.

Happy Dim Sum
Following polite Asian dining traditions, the aim of the Happy Dim Sum card game is to fully fill your friends’ plates with these delectable treats in order to remove them from the game. Discover all the hilarious ways you can fill other people’s plates such as calling for ‘Ah Ma’s’ help. Fight to be the one who settles the bill and force your friends to stack up more food on their plate for a roaring good time.
