indoor game

Sheltered recreational pastime

An indoor game is any game designed or suitable for playing inside a building rather than outdoors.

The term encompasses board games, card games, video games, and physical activities like table tennis or darts.

Chess is the classic indoor game.

The distinction matters mainly when planning activities around weather or available space.
