10 Fun Online Games for Long Distance Couples

Are you stuck at home and cannot visit your boyfriend or girlfriend? Or maybe you have to leave your partner in your hometown because of work? A long-distance relationship is never easy.

Besides missing each other, many couples also deal with trust problems when they live far apart. Instead of feeling sad, you and your partner can try playing games together.

Games can help you spend time in a fun way, even if you are not in the same place. There are many online games to choose from, but not all of them fit well for couples. That is why I made a list of the best games for long-distance couples. Let’s check them out!

1. Roblox

Roblox is a platform with thousands of mini games, so you and your partner will never run out of choices. Every time you play, you can try something new.

This platform also has many servers where you can roleplay as a couple. For example, you can build a house, do some gardening, or just walk around a digital city together. Some games even let you create your own world.

You can also go on a “virtual date.” Watch concerts, eat at restaurants, or even go to the movies. Of course, everything is in Roblox style.

Roblox also has an in-game chat feature so you can talk while playing. Once your account is verified, you can even use the voice chat feature. That way, you can still hear your partner’s voice while playing.

Since Roblox uses avatars, you can also design your avatar to match your partner’s. Wear couple outfits or add matching accessories to show everyone that you are together. Cute, right?

What I like about Roblox:

• Many different types of games to play
• Virtual dates are possible in various worlds
• Chat and voice chat features for communication
• Avatars can be customized with couple skins and accessories
• Some games are similar to Minecraft, so you can build your own world for just you and your partner

One thing to note:

• Not all game servers are high quality

2. Eggy Party

If you know the game Stumble Guys, you may enjoy Eggy Party too. Here, you and your partner play together and try to win in arenas full of obstacles.

The gameplay is similar to Stumble Guys and Fall Guys. The goal is to be the last player standing after passing all the obstacles. In Eggy Party, you can invite teammates, including your partner, to play against other teams on Eggy Island.

A team usually has four players. If one player is out, you can add random players to fill the spot. Just like solo mode, you must still reach the finish line. The difference is that your scores are added together as a team. So, you and your partner need a good strategy to win.

What I like about Eggy Party:

• Simple gameplay that is still fun
• Several game modes keep it fresh
• You can invite your partner or friends to join

Things to note:

• No direct social features in the app
• If you play too long, it may start to feel repetitive

3. BombSquad

BombSquad is a fun battle game where you and your partner can fight each other or play together. In the arena, you can throw bombs, punch, or push your partner until they fall.

As you go higher in levels, the game becomes more challenging. Sometimes your movements are slowed down, so you need to be careful to avoid bombs and landmines. To get bombs, you can pick up items around the arena.

To play with your partner, open the Gather menu, make a private party, and share the code. You can choose to fight each other or work together in Co-Op mode to beat the bots.

BombSquad is also a lightweight game, so it works on many types of phones. It is free to play, making it a good choice for couples who want quick and fun matches.

What I like about BombSquad:

• A battle game that is fun but not stressful
• Different game modes to try
• Cute cartoon graphics and lively background music
• Short match duration
• No need for complicated strategies
• You can make a private party to play only with your partner
• Co-Op mode lets you team up against bots

Hal yang perlu diperhatikan di BombSquad:

• The game has no social features

4. Tennis Clash

Tennis Clash is another exciting game to play with your partner. You can challenge each other in a tennis match with a score of up to 5 points.

The controls are simple. Swipe the screen to swing your racket, and tap the court area to move your character. The game also lets you choose a player inspired by real tennis athletes. To win more easily, remember to upgrade your character’s skills.

Tennis Clash also has a ranking system. You and your partner can play often to raise your rank. The 3D graphics are bright and realistic, so it feels almost like real tennis.

What I like about Tennis Clash:

• Multiplayer mode for playing with a partner
• Character choices inspired by real tennis athletes
• Nice 3D graphics
• Smooth performance on mid-range phones
• Competitive ranking system
• Very easy game mechanics

Things to note:

• May not run well on low-end phones
• Some players find it repetitive after a while

5. Among Us

Among Us is a social deduction game. The main idea is to find out who the “bad guy” or impostor is among the players. To win, players must talk to each other and decide who they think the impostor is.

This game is great for long-distance couples. You and your partner can play as crewmates and work together to discover the impostor. Sometimes, one of you might even be the impostor, and then you will have to suspect each other.

Besides the usual crewmates and impostors, there are also other roles that make the game more interesting. You can play just the two of you or invite friends to join.

Among Us also has more than one mode. One of them is Hide & Seek, where the impostor tries to catch crewmates hiding on the map. It feels just like playing real hide and seek.

What I like about Among Us:

• Can be played with your partner or with many friends
• Has different game modes
• You can create a private room and invite your partner or friends
• Simple and easy gameplay
• Chat feature to discuss with other players

6. Plato

Plato is an app that mixes games with social interaction. You and your partner can play many types of games for free and chat while playing.

The games include card games, billiards, robot wars, bingo, wordbox, and more. Most of the games have simple rules and easy controls. You can compete with your partner to finish quests or just play together for fun.

To play privately, choose a game and tap the Create Private Games menu. You can decide whether to play turn-based or live mode if you are both online. Some games even have extra modes. For example, the Match Monster game has a special Data Pink mode with different stages.

What I like about Plato:

• Many free games to play
• You can send messages in the app
• Multiplayer games connect you with other players
• Option to create your own room with your partner
• In-game chat to talk while playing
• Quests to earn rewards and points

One thing to note:

• Some games are turn-based, so matches can take a long time if other players are not online

7. PlayJoy

PlayJoy is a multiplayer game app built around social interaction. You can make new friends while enjoying a variety of games that support 2 to 4 players.

If your partner is far away, just ask them to create a PlayJoy account, and you can play together no matter the distance. Most of the games here are classics like Dominoes, Bingo, and Uno.

Some games require coins, but don’t worry, every new player gets 1,000 free coins to start. Winning matches and completing challenges will also earn you more coins. There are also free games you can play without coins.

One drawback is that not all games include tutorials, so if you’re not familiar with certain classics, you might feel a bit lost at first.

What I like about PlayJoy:

• Many classic mini-games in PvP mode
• Easy to invite your partner or friends
• Chat feature inside and outside the game
• Simple to play once you know the rules

Things to note:

• Some games need coins to start
• Not all games provide tutorials

8. Mancala

Do you miss playing Mancala? Well, with technology, you can now relive this childhood favorite anytime on your phone. Mancala, developed by AppOn Innovate, brings the classic Mancala experience right to your screen.

The rules are the same as the traditional game, but if you’re unsure, Mancala includes a complete tutorial. To play with your partner, simply create a private room with the same name. One match cost 50 chips, and if you run out, you’ll need to watch ads to earn more.

What I like about Mancala:

• A nostalgic congkak game on mobile
• Play against the computer, in PvP, or with friends in a private room
• Clear tutorial for beginners

Things to note:

• Multiplayer is sometimes turn-based, so you may need to wait for others to come online
• The game shows quite a lot of ads
• Creating a private room requires chips

9. Sausage Man

Sausage Man is a battle royale game similar to Free Fire and PUBG Mobile, but with a fun twist: the characters are sausages. Its colorful and quirky visuals make the game look lighthearted, even though the gameplay is still competitive.

You and your partner will be dropped into a battle with over 90 other players, some of whom are in teams. Once in the arena, you’ll need to loot weapons, health packs, helmets, and other items to survive. The goal is simple: stay alive until the end.

Controls are intuitive and comfortable to use, which makes the game enjoyable even for beginners. You can play in teams of up to four people, but if you only want to play with your partner, that’s possible too.

Things I like about Sausage Man:

• A battle royale with cute and colorful visuals, so it doesn’t feel too intense
• Fun to play in pairs or with a small team
• Familiar battle royale gameplay, easy to understand
• Smooth and intuitive controls

One thing to note:

• The app size is quite large, which may be a problem for low-spec phones

10. The Sims Mobile

The Sims Mobile is one of the most popular simulation games in the world, letting you create and live out the life you want. For long-distance couples, it can even be a way to build a virtual life together.

You and your partner can each create a character (sim), connect in the game, and explore different kinds of relationships. You can chat, go on dates, throw parties, get married, and even raise “virtual” children. Beyond that, you can design your dream home, explore professions, or travel the world.

The game is casual and relaxing, with no pressure to finish missions quickly. Some tasks unlock new clothes, furniture, or items, and you can also interact with NPCs and other players.

That said, the game requires a lot of storage space, and lower-end devices might experience lag. Also, while you can visit each other’s homes, The Sims Mobile is mainly a single-player experience. You and your partner can’t connect in real time.

What I like about The Sims Mobile:

• A creative and flexible life simulation game
• Can imagine a future life with a long-distance partner
• Fun activities like dating, parties, and home building
• Free to play, with optional purchases
• Interactions with both players and NPCs

Things to note:

• Requires a lot of storage space
• May lag on low-spec phones
• Doesn’t support real-time play with your partner

With this list of games for long-distance couples, you don’t have to wonder what to play anymore. Instead of only chatting or video calling, playing games together can be a fun way to stay connected, strengthen your bond, and ease the feeling of missing each other.
