Invite the right number of people: Make sure you have enough people to play the games you have selected, but not too many that it becomes chaotic or overwhelming

Set a date and time that works for everyone: Choose a date and time that works for the majority of your friends to ensure good attendance

Make sure you have all the necessary supplies: Check to make sure you have all the necessary game pieces, cards, or controllers before the game night begins

Plan some snacks and drinks: Having some snacks and drinks available can help create a fun and relaxed atmosphere. Consider offering a mix of sweet and savory options

Consider setting up a theme: Adding a theme to your game night can make it more fun and memorable. For example, you could have a "retro game night" and only play games from a certain era.

Create a comfortable and conducive atmosphere: Make sure the lighting and seating arrangements are comfortable and conducive to playing games

Have a plan for game rotation: Consider having a plan for rotating games or switching up the groups of people playing. This can help keep things interesting and prevent any one game from going on for too long
