Puzzle games to play with your date on Valentine's Day

Who says dates should always be at a restaurant?

As Valentine’s Day draws near, do you have any plans besides a delicious meal and a refreshing drink together?

If you’re looking for a different kind of fun, here are some puzzle games to play with your date! Games are a fantastic way to spend time together with someone you like, especially if they’re introverted or don’t like to mingle with crowds or noisy places.

Getting closer through games is now a normal path in modern-day romance. And if your date likes daily games, then both of you should try Crosswordle—a different take on the normal crossword puzzle.

(I still play Crosswordle with my wife every morning!)

Five game insights we think will pique your interest!

First

Does your date not love video games? Not to worry, there are board games that are great for couples! Playing board games for Valentine’s Day also has added advantages, as you get to physically interact and bond with your date. Making memories this way can also be more impactful, depending on both your preferences.

No date is complete without anything to eat. Here are some easy-to-prepare date night snacks to keep in mind! Healthy, tasty and great for nibbling without making you too full, these snacks can help you create the perfect date night for you and your loved one.

Most dates include a trip to the cinema, but how about playing a game about cinema? If you and your date are movie buffs, then you definitely have to try playing CineNerdle together. And trust us, with how challenging the game can be, you’ll definitely have fun helping each other solve the puzzles. We also have an exclusive interview with the creator of the game!

End your date with a memorable gift! Here are some puzzle-themed jewelry you can give to your date—whether they are your lover, parent, sibling or best friend. After all, a date is a special occasion, but it doesn’t have to be necessarily romantic in nature!

When it comes to making memories, games are one of the best choices for a bonding activity. This is especially true in the modern age, as technology has become a part of day-to-day life for most people in the world. Online interactions are now commonplace, and finding someone to become close friends with or even more has now been made easier with advancements in tech and game creation.

In the past, older generations didn’t even think much of games, but now, games are more than entertainment. Cooperative games, in particular, are the most popular as they promote communication and interaction. And to that, we can relate the wise words of Daniel Handler, AKA Lemony Snicket, American children's author :

“The world is a puzzle, and we cannot solve it alone.”
