Indoor game (such as charades) Explanation: A parlor is "a room in a private home set apart for the entertainment of visitors". (American Heritage Dictionary). A parlor game is a game played in a parlor. It could be something like charades, where you have to guess a word based on clues that people give by making gestures. The emphasis is on entertainment, usually after the guests have enjoyed a nice dinner beforehand. |
