Sociana Play · Festivals and communities
Games for housing society and RWA events
Society events bring every age and every block to the clubhouse lawn. The games that work are ones the whole society can play at once, block against block: Housie on every phone, a festival quiz, a mosaic or wish tree the residents build together, and a kite-flying arcade for Sankranti.
Written for you, the family or host planning your own event. 6 games, each playable in your browser from this page.
