Chaotic multiplayer party games have become the go-to for casual hangouts, lazy Sundays, and quick stress relief sessions for millions of players worldwide. If you’ve scrolled through social media and seen clips of wobbly characters tripping over obstacle courses or throwing each other off platforms, you’ve almost certainly seen footage from either Eggy Party or Fall Guys. If you’re torn on which game to download first, this breakdown covers all the key differences, pros, and cons to help you make the call. We’ll cover gameplay, customization, cost, and exactly which type of player each title is made for.
Eggy Party vs Fall Guys: Core Gameplay Mechanics Compared
At first glance, the two games look pretty similar. Both feature cute, customizable avatars competing in wacky, fast-paced mini games to be the last player standing. But dig a little deeper, and their core loops are surprisingly different. Fall Guys focuses almost exclusively on competitive battle royale loops, with 60-player lobbies that filter down through 4 to 5 rounds of obstacle courses, team challenges, and survival games until one player takes the crown. The map pool is curated by the development team, with new maps added every few months as part of seasonal updates.
Eggy Party, by contrast, offers a much wider range of gameplay options beyond just battle royale. Its default competitive mode has 32-player lobbies with shorter, more fast-paced rounds, but the real draw is its massive library of user-generated content. You can jump into puzzle maps, horror-themed escape rooms, casual roleplay worlds, and even simple platforming challenges that have zero competitive stakes. That means you never run out of new things to try, even if you’ve been playing for months.
Customization and Social Feature Breakdown
Both games let you customize your avatar to match your style, but the scope of that customization varies wildly. Fall Guys is known for its high-profile licensed collabs, with skins based on popular franchises like Marvel, Star Wars, and Disney available for limited times. The catch is that almost all of these premium skins cost real money, and the free battle pass track only gives out a small handful of basic cosmetics each season.
Eggy Party has far more free customization options out of the box, plus a built-in workshop that lets you design your own skins, accessories, and even entire game modes. Eggy Party's in-game workshop lets you create entire game modes from scratch, something Fall Guys doesn’t offer natively. When it comes to playing with friends, the differences are even more noticeable:
I’ve hosted multiple game nights with both titles, and Eggy Party is almost always easier to set up for mixed groups of casual and experienced players. You can pick silly, low-difficulty maps so no one feels left out, or switch to competitive rounds if everyone is in the mood to fight for first place.
Cost, Accessibility and Crossplay Support
Both games are free to download and play, so you don’t have to spend any money upfront to test either one. That said, the amount of content you can access without paying is very different between the two. Fall Guys’ paid battle pass costs $9.99 per season, and most limited-edition collab skins cost $14.99 or more individually. The free track of the battle pass only gives out a few basic emotes and color palettes, so you’ll have to spend money if you want any standout cosmetics.
Eggy Party’s paid battle pass only costs $4.99 per season, and the free track gives out almost all the same rewards as the paid one, including multiple skins, accessories, and in-game currency. Eggy Party is far more accessible for players who only have a mid-range mobile device, since it was built first for mobile play and optimized to run smoothly on devices with as little as 3GB of RAM. Fall Guys, by contrast, was originally built for PC and consoles, so its mobile port requires a more powerful device to run without lag or frame drops.
Crossplay support is another key difference. Fall Guys supports full crossplay across PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch, so you can play with friends no matter what device they own. Eggy Party currently supports crossplay between mobile and PC, but official console support is still rolling out in most regions, so if you have friends who play on Xbox or Switch, you won’t be able to join their lobbies right now.
Who Should Pick Which Game?
At the end of the day, the right game for you depends entirely on what you’re looking for in a party game. Fall Guys is the better pick if you mostly play with friends on consoles, love competitive battle royale loops, and want polished, curated maps that feel fair for all players. It’s also the better choice if you care about licensed collab skins and native voice chat support for group games.
Eggy Party is the better pick if you play mostly on mobile, love experimenting with new game modes, or want to host casual game nights with mixed groups of players. The user-generated content library means you’ll never run out of new things to try, and the lower cost of cosmetics means you can customize your egg without spending a ton of money. You don't have to pick just one, of course – both are free to download, so you can test both for a few days to see which fits your playstyle better.
From my own experience, I keep both games installed on my phone and PC. I play Fall Guys when I’m in the mood to grind for crowns and play with my friends who own consoles, and I play Eggy Party when I want to mess around with silly custom maps or host a low-stakes game night with my friends who don’t play games very often.
At the end of the day, the Eggy Party vs Fall Guys debate doesn’t have a universal winner – it all comes down to your personal preferences, what devices you own, and who you play with most often. Both games have their own strengths and weaknesses, and both deliver hours of silly, chaotic fun for players of all skill levels. Both games deliver the chaotic, laugh-out-loud fun that makes party games so addictive. The next time you’re looking for a game to play with friends, give one (or both) a try – you won’t be disappointed.
