Superhero Party Games
These superhero party games can be either played individually, head to head, or in teams. Each one is inspired by a popular superhero and even though I’m a little bias toward The Avengers, I included Justice League superheroes, X-Men, and more since I’ve already shared Avengers party games.
I designed the games so that they are all family-friendly, so you can use these for kids, adults, teens, or even grandparents. They can all be played individually or minute to win it style. Minute to Win It games are perfect for that – just use the game and change the difficulty for the player age.
Style #1: Man vs. Clock – In this version, one player will be trying to beat the clock for each game. So for instance, they will have to try and finish the task within a minute.. If they do, they win a prize. If not, let someone else have a shot. Choose a different person per game.
Style #2: Head to Head – In this style, you’ll pick two players for each game who will going head to head against each other instead of against the clock. See who can finish the task first. The first person to finish wins the prize. Again, rotate through pairs for each game.
Style #3: Team Competition – In this style, you’ll split your group into two (or 3 or 10 depending on the number of guests) teams. For each game, teams must choose one player to compete head to head in the game with the other teams at the same time. The first team to finish will receive 10 points, the second team will receive 5, etc. This works best if you have quite a few people and is a good way to get everyone involved cheering for their team.
How These Superhero Party Games Are Played
If you have any doubt, check out the video below to see an example of a couple of the games and how fun they can be! This is only four games, imagine if you played 10 or more of these superhero games! Epic and amazing! Perfect to play right before you go see the new Infinity War movie!
Instructions for These Superhero Party Games
Each of these games is a bit different, so I’ve put together instructions for each. But know that you can switch things up or customize to work for your family and friends! If you’re playing with younger kids, make the rules a little easier. Playing with adults, crank up the difficulty!
Superhero Party Games: Avengers Games
Since most people are pretty divided, I figured I might as well divide up the games as well. I’m breaking this into two groups – Avengers and everything else. Because really, what else is there?
Captain America
Supplies Needed:
- Paper plates, even better if they’re red, white, and blue like these ones
- A basket or box – a red or blue one like this would be perfect
- Masking or Americana duct tape
How to Play:
Players must stand behind the line that’s taped on the ground 20 feet away from the basket and try to toss paper plate “shields” to get them to land in the basket or other container. First played to land a certain number of plates in the basket before the time runs out wins. Or if you’re playing individually, player has to get a certain number of shields in the basket before a minute is up.
Spiderman
Supplies:
How to Play:
Place a bunch of plastic spiders on the ground and give each player a sticky hand. Players must sling their sticky hand “webs” to pick up a certain number (10) of plastic spiders in the allotted time (or fastest).
Iron Man

Thor

- Ping pong balls
- A plastic bucket (you could also use a box but the plastic bucket that it can bounce out of is more fun)
How to Play:
Give each player a bucket of ping pong balls and a hammer. Place a bucket on the other side of the room across from the player with the hammer. To play, player must bounce a ping pong ball and using the hammer navigate the ping pong ball into the bucket at the other side of the room. Make sure to get ping pong balls that bounce well or this becomes almost impossible!
Hawkeye
Supplies:
- Large/thick rubber bands (the thin ones don’t work)
- Toy cars like Hot Wheels or Matchbox Cars
- Table
How to Play:
Set the toy car at the end of the table and give the player a pile full of rubber bands. Player must use the rubber bands to shoot the toy car from one end to the other. If the car falls off the side, they must place it back on the table where it fell off and start again.
Black Panther
Supplies:
- A spool of black yarn (it’s cheaper to buy in stores than online FYI)
How to Play:
Player must put one hand behind their back and with the one hand behind their back, must unravel the entire ball of black yarn. They can use any method they want as long as they don’t remove their hand from behind their back. They must get the other end of the ball of yarn in their hand to win.

Play: Player must put a plastic spider on their head and without touching the spider at any point (once it’s on their head), get through the hula hoop from one side to the other. If the spider drops or they touch it, they have to try again.
Superhero Party Games: Other Superheroes
I couldn’t just stop with the Avengers because really there are so many awesome superheroes out there, the Avengers just happen to be my favorite. But who knows after last week’s Infinity War Trailer, not sure I’m going to be a big fan if all my favorites are no longer around!
Flash
Supplies:
- Any objects from your house that you can use to create an obstacle course
- A bucket filled with any objects (e.g., balls, villains, medals, etc.).

Gambit
Supplies:
How to Play:
Place a box at one of a room and a deck of playing cards about five feet away. To play, players must toss playing cards Gambit style (like a frisbee) and get at least five cards to land in the box before the time runs out. Increase or decrease the number of cards depending on who is playing.
Daredevil
Supplies:
- A piece of poster board or cardboard
- Oreos or really any treat would work – I’d actually maybe recommend wrapped candy, just make sure it’ll glide okay on a table
- Blindfold
- A medium size bowl or cup
How to Play:
Player must sit on one side of the table wearing the blindfold. Tape the cardboard or poster board to the other side of the table so it creates a ramp from the table edge to a bowl/cup on the ground underneath the edge of the table. Player has one minute to roll Oreos over the edge of the ramp blindfolded to try and get one to land in the cup.
Wonder Woman
Supplies:
- String
- 3 lightweight gold items
How to Play:
Give player a piece of string and place the three gold items on the ground about five feet away from the player. Player must tie a knot in the string to create a “lasso,” then use the lasso to grab the gold items and bring them back to them. They can drag the items, pick them up, or use whatever method as long as they don’t leave their spot.
Silver Surfer
Supplies:
- Gray or silver colored towels
- Obstacles to make an obstacle course (optional)
How to Play:
Race from one side of the room to the other (or around obstacles if you choose) by surfing on a gray towel. Stand on the towel and literally shuffle your feet back and forth to move the towel. First player to make it there and back wins. 
Superman
Supplies:
- Rock candy (preferably green so it looks like Kryptonite)
- Plastic straws
How to Play:
Place rock candy in a cup on onside of the room and place another cup on the other side. Player must use the plastic straws only to transfer the green rocky candy (Kryptonite) to the cup on the other side of the room without touching it. If they touch it, they must start over.
Professor X
Supplies:
- Swivel office chair

How to Play:
Spin the player around in the swivel chair 3-5 times. Player must then place an Oreo on their forehead and, while still sitting in the chair, use only their face muscles (and mind power) to get the Oreo from their forehead to their mouth. If the Oreo drops on the ground, they can pick it up and start again.
