Family Bash tells the timeless story of the Family – the one we love, cherish, insult and despise. You arrive in the village hall of a small French town out in the sticks in Normandy to celebrate your grandfather’s birthday: he’s 90 years old, still “all there” and is the living memory of your family. Just as the party is shaping up to be fun, you find yourself at the centre of an intergenerational conflict with unforeseeable consequences. You begin to uncover the dark secrets and ulterior motives of the various members of your family. In Family Bash, a seemingly insignificant choice can change the relationships between your family members forever. So explore your surroundings and make choices, talk to your cousins, confront your uncle and find out about that mysterious will – for better or for worse. • Explore some unusual themes in the video game: the family and comedy. • Find out about your grandfather’s last will and testament, uncover some unmentionable secrets and destroy your uncle’s car. • The extraordinary visual style of Geoffroy Monde • An original rap soundtrack Produced by Atomic Raccoon and Kilosaurus, edited and co-produced by ARTE FRANCE, European cultural TV and digital channel.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Ten Dates at 4.5 against Family Bash's 4.0. Ten Dates also leads on ratings volume (107 vs 26) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.2). Family Bash's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Family Bash sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Ten Dates sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Ten Dates holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 26 and 107 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of Family Bash's written reviews are positive against 59% of Ten Dates's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Family Bash ships an update every 2 weeks, Ten Dates fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
