Zoom has become our go-to hangout spot in 2020, like hosting a party or going to a friend's house — it's where we meet, chat, relax, and catch up. So to celebrate Christmas, it's no surprise that many of us are doing it via video calls. Whether your real-life Christmas party got cancelled or your family get-together is no longer, Zoom is here to connect us from miles apart. While a video call will never be the same as catching up IRL, there are plenty of Zoom-friendly Christmas games out there to get the party started. From Christmas-style trivia to charades and more, these games are so fun you'll forget why you're on Zoom in the first place. If you're looking to take your virtual Christmas hangout up a notch, have a look at the 19 fun games to play on Zoom, ahead.

Never Have I Ever, but Make It Christmas

No, we're not saying to do the inappropriate questions you asked your peers in college. Instead, hold up three to five fingers and say things that you've never done that are Christmas related. For example, never have I ever last-minute Christmas shopped, and those who have (guilty), put their fingers down.

The game includes three rounds with scripted questions and actions for every guest, plus a packet for each character.
