Games for 30 people and 2 to 3 hours

by Pep Rosenfeld
(Amsterdam, Netherlands)

Hi, your games look great. But I'm not sure how long they take. I'm looking for something in the 2 to 3 hours range. Which games work best for that size and that length?

Thanks!

My response:

The games themselves typically take about 2.5 hours to actually play, but that excludes any introductions and debrief/winding down at the end.

If you're very disciplined, you could play one in three hours - I would struggle to do on in two.

I hope that helps!
