parlour game

This was a 'parlour game' at the Rectory, as I discovered later, and one in which my aunt always came off the winner.

Even regarded as a parlour game, it palls upon one after the first hour and a half.

It is a favourite performance on the stage, and not seldom tried as a parlour game.

It must be a good rubber, however, for the parlour game is neither relaxation nor pleasure.
