Hi there!
So for about 2-3 years now I have had a generational thing going on where I have 16 young adult sims. I then divide them into groups or cliques - the masculine men play kicky bag (4), the alternatives hang out (8), and then the boring and/or nerdy play video games (4). It's stereotypical as plum...but oh well.
Anyways, I am thinking about changing the video game group to something else, as they don't seem to necessarily gain relationships with each other from it. So while the 4 kicky baggers and the 8 hangouters are all bffs, the 4 videogamers have no friends. 29 Generations later, I think it is time to change that.
What are some other 4 person indoor activities that they'd build relationships from? I thought about mahjong or cards but I'm not sure if those increase relationship or just fun&social.
Thanks in advance for suggestions.
Edit: random annoying question mark stuck itself in there.

When you do have them play video games is it on the computer? Also are they doing "lan party"? I think they build relationships that way...not positive. What about gaming competition?
I have rarely bought the handheld electronics that came with University (other than the phone), but I think that hand held game thing can increase the relationship if they play together. Emphasis on think, because it's been ages since any of my sims have had one. They can buy it from the "Sellafone Gadget Kiosk" which comes in the University lots, but is also found it the catalog so you can place it in the regular community lots too. Have your gamers all buy one for themselves, and see if they'll be able to play together.
Another idea is to set up a "rec room" area with some of the video arcade games and/or the pinball machines, and have them play together. Some of my sims have gone from acquaintances to good friends just by getting in some pinball time.

I ended up putting the card table down. The only thing I hate is the stupid llama Amar Sator keeps sitting and playing the whole freaking day when my sims aren't using it :P
