Our society’s phone and social media addictions have gotten completely out of hand. If we expect people to function normally in their day-to-day lives, something has to change. My friends and I have decided to take matters into our own hands so we can at least kick the bad habit. We've agreed to start weekly “no screen” nights where we hang out without using any technology.
The best way we could think of to do this is to start incorporating games into our hangouts. The top thing everyone recommended? Puzzles. They’re not just for little kids, you know? In fact, these days, there are tons of aesthetically pleasing, adult-friendly puzzles. Here are a bunch of options if you’re also looking to put your phone away for a few hours.
Here are the best puzzles that are perfect for your next game night.
