Tired of Dumb Charades and the usual card games? In board games and other types of worlds, there are many places worth exploring. Lounge recommends four games that focus on action, dexterity and scoring, allowing you to spend a fun game night.

TRIKONA: Inspired by Indian jaali (lattice work) patterns, this dexterous game involves stacking the correct shapes and completing the pattern puzzle into a structure. Trikona is handmade by craftsmen, with 48 wooden blocks, four pattern shapes and 30 pattern cards, with three levels of difficulty. This is a cool game suitable for children and adults. (Available on Amazon and Studio Maniams; prices vary; two to four players).

DRUNKEN BLOCKS: Everyone likes Jenga's good games. But this simple tower building game becomes intoxicating in Drunken Blocks. Some blocks have challenging tasks and challenges, while empty blocks are safe areas. The usual building block rules apply-but be careful. Some neighborhoods have challenges like "try it out". Cheers! (available on Drunkendesi.com; 1,599 rupees; 28 players).

FIREPUCKS: In FirePucks, each player has 8 pucks. You must try to shoot them into half of your opponent with the elastic on the wooden board, through the slit located in the middle of the wooden partition. The first player to clear the puck on their side wins. The hockey puck is ready! (Available for purchase on FirePucks.com; 1,599 rupees; two players).

KLASK: Klask is a popular magnetic skill game from Denmark. There are two goals at each end of the game board. In the middle are three white magnetic blocks. You must avoid them when moving your playing blocks-black magnets. This piece is controlled by a magnetic handle under the table. You have to score by hitting the yellow ball into the opponent's goal. Klask is like a miniature combination of foosball and air hockey, requiring good reflexes and hand-eye coordination. The first player to score 6 points wins. (Available on In.boredgamecompany.com; starting from Rs 5,799; two to four players)
