Herewith, we've compiled all of the best new sex games, from the best sex games available for purchase to the sex games that require only your imagination, that every adventurous couple needs to try. So read on, and good luck!
The best sex games you can play with no equipment
1. Guess the body part
All you need for this fun game is a blindfold and yourselves. Once the blindfoldee is deprived of his or her sight, select a part of their body and put it in contact with a part of yours. Can their knee detect whether that's your breasts or your butt? If they get it right, the guesser gets a special prize of your own choosing.
2. Fantasy grab
You and your partner write down a number of sex fantasies you've yet to share with each other on pieces of paper. Some might be things that you can do immediately—such as a sex position you haven't tried—while others might be things that require a little prep or planning, like having a threesome or sex on the beach. While this game may result in you trying some new things, the act of sharing will bring you and your partner together.
3. Dare
It's like Truth or Dare, already one of the best sex games ever, but with less talk and more action. Give each other fun-in-the-moment dares, like "I dare you take off my clothes without using your hands," or task-based dares when you are apart, such as, "send me a naughty text when you're in a meeting tomorrow."
4. The Feedback Game
Why tell your partner how you like to be stimulated when you can show them? And why show them when you can integrate it into one of the most fun sex games there is?
Start by getting naked, getting comfortable, and sitting on the bed facing one another. The first person licks, kisses, squeezes, and stimulates the other how he or she would like to be teased for exactly one minute, and then their partner responds in kind.
5. Have a sexy binge watch
While watching your favorite shows, agree that certain things happening on the screen will trigger certain sex acts. Take Game of Thrones. Every time Circe drinks some wine, you kiss. When a dragon breathes fire, you pause to make out. And when some austere northerner reminds us that winter is, ahem, coming—or a Lannister mentions their famed credit-worthiness—one of you must be brought to orgasm by the other.
6. Revisit 7 Minutes in Heaven
Cincinnati, Ohio. Okay, maybe that's not the first place that comes to mind when you think of daring sexual fun. Still, the Queen City is the location of the first recorded game of "7 Minutes in Heaven" in the early 1950s. Just like this teenage mainstay, you and your partner enter an enclosed space for seven minutes—set a timer as you won't have a bunch of rowdy teens counting down for you—and get up to whatever you'd like short of intercourse. Not only is it a fun way to revisit your youth, but it may also be a pragmatic way to get a little privacy.
7. Roleplay Roulette
This game is the perfect opportunity to get some value out of one-worn Halloween costumes that are gathering dust in your home. Take the naughty nurse, the firefighter, the Mexican wrestler, and the French maid outfits, and shove them all into a bag and, similar to the fantasy grab, use whatever you pull out as the jumping off point for something novel and fun.
Let the outfit inform your role play. Think of it as a lightning round of Whose Line Is It Anyway? that would never be broadcast on television.
8. Sex scene
You and your partner each think of a memorable movie-sex scene. Got 'em? Good. Rewatch them together and then perform them together. And….ACTION!
9. Hide and Seek
Do you have the house to yourselves? It's time to revisit a game you likely haven't played in years. As an adult, you can add a twist of your choosing to make getting found that much more eventful.
10. Sex toy grab bag
Sex toys have come along way in the past decade or so and, whatever your gender, it's worthwhile investigating what's on offer. If you're already there (maybe you were convinced by our sex toy round up), put your entire sex toy arsenal into a bag and, like a Powerball draw, reach in and grab something to use together. Set a timer and see what you can get out of using your selected toy for five or ten minutes. It's a fun way to let fate shape your evening.
11. 30 Seconds
Get naked. Get comfortable. Start a timer for 30 seconds. Who ever is "it" is has to use the 30 seconds to try and give their partner other as much pleasure as they possibly can. Think 30 seconds doesn't sound like enough time? It's not supposed to be. It's a game designed to leave the person hungry for more.
12. Porn karaoke
For this, one of the best internet-based sex games, you and your partner will pick a few porn clips that you both really respond to. Replicate the mood, the positions, the technique, and the intensity as best you can. But a word to the wise: porn is to sex what WWE is to wrestling, so take this foray into sex karaoke as a bit of fun and nothing more.
13. Orgasm race
To play, you and your partner like naked side by side and, from a standing start, each bring yourself to orgasm via masturbation. Perhaps the first one over the finish line gets to help out their competitor with a little oral, manual, or visual stimulation. If, after a few showdowns you find that you're pretty evenly matched, you can use this game as an X-rated alternative to Rock-Paper-Scissors to see determine who performs the unappetizing household chore.
14. Quarters
Fifty cents doesn't buy much these days, but in the context of sex games, it could seriously enhance your regularly scheduled sex play. To play, ask your partner to take a seat and put both their hands palm down on the table. Put a quarter on the back of each of their hands and then take 10 minutes to do things to cause those coins to drop. If they still have the coins on the back of their hands when the 10 minutes is up, they get to keep the 50 cents.
15. Sexy suits
If the only material you have to hand is a plain-old deck of playing cards, fret not! You've got all you need!
Assign each suit a sexy meaning. For example, clubs could represent kissing, diamonds manual stimulation, spades oral, and hearts sensation play. Take the number on the card and multiply it by ten. This is the amount of time in seconds that the activity is going to last. Shuffle the deck, place the deck face down and start picking. Oh, and don't forget to set a timer as you may lose track! This is one of the best sex games for randomizing what you do next and how long you do it for.
