The Ultimate 1970s Riddles Playlist – Free, Fun, and Perfect for Parties!

 

The Ultimate 1970s Riddles Playlist – Free, Fun, and Perfect for Parties!

Take a Trip Back to the 1970s with My Riddle Playlist

If you’re planning a retro-themed party, celebrating a birthday for someone who grew up in the 1970s—or even the late 1960s—I’ve got a little something that can add some fun and laughter to the mix.

I created a special 1970s Riddles playlist on YouTube, and it’s the perfect, uncomplicated game to keep your guests entertained while maintaining a light, family-friendly, and just a touch nostalgic vibe.

Short, Fun Riddles That Anyone Can Play

The playlist is made up of 14 short-form Riddle videos (soon to be 15), each one inspired by the 1970s. What’s great about these Riddles is that they’re super quick—you won’t get bogged down with long explanations. 

And to keep it fun, the answers aren’t shown on the Riddle itself; instead, I post them in the first comment. This way, everyone can guess first, then pause or peek at the answer when they’re ready. 

It’s simple, interactive, and perfect for sparking a little friendly competition at your party.

Perfect for Any Occasion

Whether it’s a retro birthday bash, a casual family get-together, or even a holiday party over Christmas or New Year’s, these Riddles are a playful way to bring a little 1970s flair into the room. 

Seniors and older adults especially seem to enjoy the nostalgic references, but honestly, anyone can have fun trying to solve them.

It’s one of those games that doesn’t require any preparation, props, or complicated rules—just laughter and a willingness to play along.

How to Enjoy the Playlist

Watching is easy. 

You can go directly to the playlist on YouTube from your TV if it has the YouTube app. 

Or, if you’re like me and want to control it from your phone, you can screen it to your TV—so you can pause, rewind, or skip around as needed. 

Either way, it’s a smooth, low-effort way to add a little interactive fun to your party setup.




And because these Riddles are short, you can sprinkle them in between songs, serve snacks, or even use them as a light-hearted icebreaker. 

Each Riddle takes just seconds to watch and guess, but it’s enough to get people chatting, laughing, and reminiscing about the good old days.

Why I Made This Playlist

As the creator of these Riddles, I wanted something that would combine my love for clever wordplay with a bit of nostalgia. 

The 1970s had such a vibrant, unique culture—music, fashion, movies, and trends that still bring a smile today. 

I thought, why not create a playlist that’s more than just music —a little game that taps into that decade and lets people connect over memories, laughs, and fun challenges?

Ready to Play?

If you’re curious or want to bring some retro fun to your next party, check out the 1970s Riddles playlist on YouTube. With 14 (soon to be 15) short videos, each with answers conveniently in the comments, it’s a ready-to-go party game that works for families, friends, and guests of any age.

It’s a light, playful way to get people talking, laughing, and maybe even singing along to some memories from the era. And even if your party isn’t specifically retro-themed, the Riddles are still a fun little brain teaser for anyone who enjoys a clever twist on nostalgia.

So grab your snacks, cue up the playlist, and get ready for some 1970s Riddle fun—you might just discover that retro game nights aren’t just for kids anymore!

Shows In Their Own Classic Category

The Love Boat 

Who can forget the theme song and the cast of regulars! The solid formula every week with a who's who of television stars of the decade. The guest stars were fun to watch even if their acting was sketchy at times. 

The Waltons

Solid, dependable and to this day fans love The Waltons. The series which stands the test of time for how many times can one watch the same episode! Considering The Waltons began airing in 1972 - that is many a decade of reruns for old and new fans!
