Boys and girls alike these days cannot seem to get enough TikTok. And while more and more influencers, brands, and businesses are starting to use TikTok for driving traffic, the majority of people still don't understand what the hype is all about. Maybe that is because, according to Statista, the majority of users on this platform range from 10-19.

Gen Z may be the most involved on TikTok, but as it's grown in popularity, people from all age groups have joined in. In 2020, during the pandemic, TikTok really took off. Global Web Index reports it was used by 18% of all internet users around the globe. This figure is likely to be much higher as we close out 2022.

A few viral TikTok games and/or safe challenges will keep party-goers busy:

  • Without Telling Me: This challenge has become a TikTok classic, and even spilled over to other social media platforms. The game starts with the line "Tell me your (a) ____ without telling me." For example, "Tell me you're a mom without telling me you're a mom." It's typically hilarious what people can come up with.
  • 10-Second Storytelling: This is a variation of TikTok's #StoryTime challenge. Each person has 10 seconds to tell a story. The only catch is, the storyteller can't repeat any words or phrases that have already been mentioned.
  • Never Have I Ever: This game is great for all party settings. It is a classic that has remained viral on TikTok, without being too complicated. Truth be told, parents might even remember playing this when they were kids.
