Here's a fun shower game that my family plays. I know some would probably find it a little offensive but it's all in good fun.
While the guest of honor is opening presents have one or two people writing down comments she says. This should be done discreetly so the guests and the guest of honor don't really know what's going on. When she is done opening all of her presents, stand up and tell everyone that based on what so-and-so said while opening presents, you know what was said on the night of conception. Then you read the various things that have been written down. It is absolutely hysterical! This is also great during couple showers because then you can get what Mom and Dad said.
It usually has things like "Look how small it is!" or "Oh, it's so cute!". At the most recent shower I went to the mom-to-be even said things like "It's got cute little fishies on it!" and "don't worry, mom will remind me every day about it." We play this at all our family showers and usually have tears in our eyes from laughing so hard. Again, it's probably not for all types of crowds but it is something fun and different. I hope no one is offended!

My 86 year old grandmother would be dying of laughter. Like the OP said, it isn't for everyone so know your audience!
After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.
