Kissing games are a fun way to practice kissing. They also give you the opportunity to kiss someone that you have a crush on. Don't take the game too seriously, however. The games are supposed to be fun, and no player has an obligation to date players he or she kisses.
Famous Kissing Games for Adults
Consenting adults looking for fun ways to kiss can try out these no-pressure kissing games with a boyfriend or girlfriend or a group. While the games are meant to be light and fun, be respectful if anyone changes their mind about playing. There are many kissing games but two are the most well known.
Spin the Bottle
The rules of spin the bottle are simple. You need a minimum of four players. The game is better with large groups of eight or more. An empty two-liter bottle makes a good bottle, but it's more satisfying to spin a bottle that has more weight to it, such as a glass bottle. If you prefer to have your destiny determined by another person, you can play a variant of spin the bottle. In the variant, each person takes a turn spinning the bottle twice. The two people selected by the spins must then kiss.
- A group of players sits in a circle, alternating man and woman.
- Each player takes turns spinning the bottle, which is placed in the middle of the circle.
- Whoever the bottle points at when it stops spinning is the person the spinner kisses. Some groups will also add the rule that if the bottle is pointed at a member of the same sex, continue spinning until it points to someone of the opposite sex.
- The next person to spin is either the person whom the bottle pointed toward or the person sitting next to the spinner.
Seven Minutes in Heaven
After Spin the Bottle, the next most famous kissing game is Seven Minutes in Heaven. There are almost no rules for this game.
The main variations of this game are how the players are selected. Sometimes the host will select two people, and other times it is a chance encounter like in Spin the Bottle. This game is great for setting up two people of different social status. It is also fun to set up two people whom you think already have a crush on each other.
Other variations to the game involve the choice of room, props, and rules. You can blindfold the players so they don't know whom they are kissing, for example. You can also forbid talking in the room as well. Just make sure you the room is dark enough so the players will have more courage to kiss instead of just staring at the walls for seven minutes.
- Two participants go into a small, dark room, often a closet, and they spend seven minutes together.
- While there is no obligation to do anything together, it is often implied that the participants will use their seven minutes of privacy to hug and kiss.
More Kissing Games
There are more kissing games than just Spin the Bottle and Seven Minutes in Heaven. Kissing games for couples or groups of couples can be simple and demure or more complex.
Truth or Dare
Truth or dare is more than just a kissing game, but often a kiss is used as a dare.

Get Your Kissing Game On
