Of course, nothing compares to actually spending time in person with friends and family, but a virtual hangout is definitely the next best thing when the distance or your schedules don't allow you to arrange an IRL game night. From classic board games to challenging strategy-based options, browser-based games require little more than a computer, an internet connection, and coordination with your friends.
Even if your besties or loved ones live in another state (or even on another continent), online group games can bring you all together for an hour or two of fun - and some of the most fun online group games out there just so happen to be free to play. Despite what you may think, you and your crew don’t actually have to be in the same room to have enjoy a game night together.
