The Importance of Play in Relationships

Whether it’s an evening of Risk, or a day in front of a video game, playing together as a couple can be a lot of fun. But this is nothing compared to the fun involved in sex games, which have been touted by scientists as a fantastic way to boost intimacy¹ and beat the boredom that can creep in during a long-term relationship. Knowing what to do with regard to bedroom games can be a rather difficult task, however. That’s why it’s worth learning:

How Games Can Enhance Intimacy

Sex games enhance intimacy through a whole host of great ways. Intimacy games can:

1. Introduce new excitement into your sex life
2. Make you and your partner communicate honestly
3. Allow for new forms of sexual expression
4. Boost your sexual satisfaction
5. Help you discover new sides to your partner
6. Reduce stress and anxiety
7. Make sex more fun
8. Create a constant climate of desire and anticipation
9. Elevate your foreplay to new heights
10. Make you understand your sexual needs better

Building Trust and Communication Through Play

Sex games, like all games, need rules. Without rules, it is unlikely that your chances of intimacy will succeed. One rule that is very important is that you have to always build trust and communication together. By establishing clear boundaries and guidelines before you play, then you will be likely to succeed together as a couple. In turn, exploring this in a safe way will enable you and your partner to increase trust and communication in each other, improving your intimacy and your sex life!

Romantic games for couples are all about delaying gratification, increasing your desire until you simply can’t hold it anymore. The types of play that you can engage in are as follows:

1. Touching each other’s bodies while avoiding the butt, breasts, or genitals
2. Utilize edible creams, sprays, and chocolate and eat them off each other’s bodies
3. Blindfolding your partner so they don’t know what’s coming next
4. Use a timer on your phone to stop and start activities
5. Hover over your partner’s body; whoever touches the other first loses!
6. Play in every position in the house until you finally orgasm
7. See how intimate and sexy you can get without penetration or oral
8. Watch each other masturbate
9. Kiss every time you hear a specific word during a TV show or film
10. Try body painting over erotic areas

Incorporating Lubricants into Sexy Games

If you want to make your romantic games to play at home even more extended and exciting and erotic, then you simply have to use lubricants. From water-based ones to silicone-based materials, intense pleasure gels to natural feeling lubes, K-Y® has a variety of different lubricants that can dial up the sexual intensity to 11.

Enhancing Pleasure with Lubricants

Lubricants can easily make your sexy games more intense and satisfying. For example, if you were to pick the erotic game which includes sensually touching one another’s bodies while deliberately avoiding genitalia, the chest, or the butt, using a lubricant such as K-Y® Jelly Personal Lube can turn up the intensity tenfold. Then of course, once you are getting onto masturbation, clitoral foreplay, or sexual intercourse, lube can make your sex wetter, more intense, and longer-lasting.

Choosing the Right Lubricants for Your Needs

Depending on your sexual needs, you need to figure out which lubricant is the right one for you. If you are playing a game that requires quick flexibility and not much re-application, you could try K-Y® Jelly Water Based Personal Lubricant, which effortlessly glides on and stays where you want it to. Conversely, if you are looking for a lubricant that works well for sexy massages that can then translate into full-blown intercourse, check out K-Y® Natural Feeling Lube & Massage Gel with Botanical Essence!

Creating Your Own Sexy Games

In this guide, we have tried to recommend a variety of games and prompts that can inspire you and your partner to make your sex lives great again. But it’s worth bearing in mind that every couple has their own world, comprised of quirks and in-jokes and special sexual fantasies and positions, that is completely unique to them. This means you can always make up new and novel games with your partner together!

Using Lubricants and Props for Added Fun

Playing games is also about having a mindset of fun and spontaneity. While keeping trust and communication is an important part of that, it’s also important to go with the flow. One way to add that extra level of fun is by bringing in lubricants, such as the ones we have mentioned above. You can also visit an erotic shop for added props or purchase them online!

Tips for a Successful Night

When you are looking to play sexy games and already have some ideas for an at-home date night, it’s important to set a time before you can get into the mood. So make sure that you plan some time ahead in your calendar for game night and then follow the tips below:

Setting the Mood

To get in the mood, you need to set the mood. This is easy. Either you can invest in a quality lights system for your house, or you can light some candles! Additionally, music is crucial for keeping the fun going, so make sure you have your Spotify or YouTube playlist on lock!

Ensuring Comfort and Consent

Fun sex games only work if everybody is on board. That’s why it’s important to establish clear and careful consent to keep everybody comfortable. Have a long talk about what you want to do before you do it and everyone will be sure to have a great and safe time.

Following Up and Keeping the Spark Alive

It might not seem sexy, but it’s never a bad idea to take a few notes — whether literally or mentally — after a sexy game session and have a feedback session with your partner. This way you can see what works well sexually and what doesn’t, thus giving you further impetus for better games in the future!
