Make a Bonfire Night game for your best friend

Stray rockets, sticky toffee apples and a sky full of fireworks: Bonfire Night was made for a game with your best friend in it. Your best friend knows all your secrets. Time to use theirs: put every in-joke you share into a game that only the two of you will fully understand.

Our pick: arena battle with the Bonfire Night theme. Your best friend dodge stray rockets, grab sparklers and toffee apples, and the game finishes with a high five ending carrying your own message. Every line is pre-written and funny out of the box, and you can change any of it.
