Already worn out your copy of Black Card Revoked? Good news: there's a growing shelf of Black-owned card games and trivia games that test your culture knowledge, start debates and keep game night loud. Here are the best games like Black Card Revoked, starting with the ones we make at Block Party Games.
1. CP Time: Black Culture Trivia With a Twist
CP Time is the closest pick if you love culture trivia, but it plays faster. The host reads a card, and the player has to give three answers before the CP Timer buzzes. The catch: the timer can go off at any moment between 3 and 10 seconds, so you never know how long you have. It comes with hundreds of questions across multiple categories.
- Best for: groups who like fast, loud trivia and talking trash.
- Extras: a free companion app (iOS and Android) with a dramatic countdown, buzzer, digital scorekeeping, Solo and Team Play modes, and TV screen mirroring.
- Expansions: Volume 1 and the 18+ Uncut pack add fresh questions (expansion packs don't include the CP Timer).
2. Role Call: Blackbuster Edition: Black Movie Trivia
If your group's favorite part of culture trivia is the movie questions, Role Call is built for you. It's a tribute to iconic Black cinema: teams answer movie questions, including "finish the line" quotes, with point values printed on each card and hint cards to save you when you're stuck.
- Best for: movie buffs and the friend who quotes Friday word for word.
- Play style: two teams, with alternate rules for smaller groups or solo play.
3. Culture Canvas: A Drawing Game for the Culture
Want something besides trivia? Culture Canvas is a drawing party game inspired by the African American experience. Two teams race a sand timer to sketch clues across 7 categories, from Music & Artists to Slang & Phrases. Every card has 3 difficulty tiers, and Challenge Cards make you draw with your opposite hand or your eyes closed.
- Best for: mixed groups, including people who "don't do trivia."
- In the box: 300+ drawing options, a whiteboard easel, dry-erase markers and a sand timer. No app needed.
