Tabletop Party Card Games
The all-ages card game for unforgettable Christmas parties! In two combinable editions: Peppermint and Snowflake.
Flipping cards and acting out ridiculous holiday mash-ups. Here’s what a Christmas Flabberbash game night looks like.
What is Christmas Flabberbash?
Christmas Flabberbash is a fast, silly card game for families and friends. Everyone plays a Character Card at the same time — an Elf, Snowman, Reindeer or Gingerbread — and the rarest one wins. Winners earn Star Cards, and every round ends with the table acting out a ridiculous holiday mash-up.
There’s no board, no heavy rulebook and nothing to set up beyond shuffling. Kids as young as four can play with grandparents, and a game stretches from a ten-minute warm-up to an all-night party.
How to play
Every round is a quick burst of luck, nerve and performance. Here’s the whole game in a nutshell.
Everyone plays one Character Card face-down. Count “3, 2, 1…” and flip.
The rarest Character group wins a Star Card. Tied? Cooperate with a Green Tree — or go for it all with a Red Nutcracker.
The winner judges while everyone performs a mash-up — like “slipping on ice while carrying an armful of gifts”… as a zombie.
Most Star Cards at the end leads the grand finale: the Flabberbash!
