What to play at after work? (feddit.nu)

What game should a group of around 15 colleagues play to get the most out of 3 hours after work at an internet cafe?

It's a mixed group of gamers and non gamers, and we want everyone to have a good time.

I'm thinking something where we can divide us into two teams and quite quickly get some enjoyment out of it even if most haven't played it before.

Deep Rock Galactic. Lots of fun, easy to adjust difficulty, plays on lower-end machines. 1-4 person teams (the levels scale with team size).

I also hear 100% Orange Juice is really fun with friends and approachable for non-gamers, but I've only played single player, and the computer players cheat. I can't say for certain if this is a good choice or not.

Deep rock galactic looks like a lot of fun but I'm hesitant about the small team sizes. With 4 player teams we would have to have 4 parallel games going at the same time.

With a set of mods natively supported by the game through mod.io, you can get as many as 8 people in a spacerig (lobby) without the game crashing, and in theory up to 16 if they join after the drop pod has landed. I'd recommend the following set of mods if you go that route:

Downside of this method is you have to log into mod.io through your Steam account, and I'd personally be too paranoid to do that at an internet cafe, but it would get y'all down to 1-2 parallel games. In addition, if you turn up swarm sizes, the game basically becomes Starship Troopers: Space Dwarf Edition.
