How to Make Chocolate Games

Add chocolate to the classic game of Truth or Dare. Earn points by telling truths and taking dares. Use chocolate as a reward for the most points earned. For a more romantic component or a Valentine's Day theme, incorporate the chocolate into each dare, which can include pouring chocolate syrup into the mouth of a chosen player. Or for added fun and to encourage participants to tell truths, dares could include eating the chocolate with unsavory combinations such as chocolate and brocolli or chocolate and cheese.

Invite a group of chocolate lovers over for a new perspective on the 1972 British game Guess Who. Write 24 different types of chocolate on individual cards; it is not necessary to provide a photograph of each type of chocolate, however, you can depict a characteristic like "bitter." Dark chocolate, German chocolate and milk chocolate are common choices. Provide a brief description of the origin and color of each type of chocolate. Instruct participants to ask questions to identify each type of chocolate. Use yes or no questions to eliminate types. For example, "Is this type of chocolate made with a minimum of 35% cocoa solids?"

Infuse a game of poker with a chocolate twist. Instruct players to wager chocolate wafers, bars, sticks and powders instead of money. Define the value of each wager in advance of betting by assigning a numerical value to each type of chocolate. For example, milk chocolate may have a lesser value than dark chocolate and vice versa. You can also place value assignments based on ounce or weight. For example, a 5-ounce bar of dark chocolate may be equivalent to a $5 wager.
