Hi Mike;
I'm not sure. Most of the churches have a service to bring in the new year. Sounds good though.
Possibly someone else will chime in.

We hold a Wesley Covenant Service on New Years Eve.
For those who want to we do board games in the Fellowship Hall.0 -
How about pin the tail on Satan [;)]
Seriously though no clue. Maybe a board game of some sorts?

Any sort of Bible question game might be fun. Good for learning. Example: how many times does the name of Moses appear. Depending on translation that's right around 800.

Maybe you can use Logos to come up with some trivia questions!

I don't have any suggestions for you, and it's probably too late already anyway. But I remember the church I attended growing up always used to have a New Year's Eve service. No games that I recall (though plenty of goodies afterwards). But there were two memorable things about it that I loved.
Upon entering the sanctuary we would all be given a candle to hold (with a paper drip-guard). At one point in the service, we'd turn off all the lights, and someone would light one candle at the front to start the flame going and pass it around to everyone in the congregation one by one. I can't remember if we sang a song during that (e.g., "It only takes a spark..." though not very likely; our church was much more traditional in its choice of hymns than that) or not. But it was a special moment that made us all feel connected as part of the body of Christ.
At another point in the service (I think at the end) we would move outwards into a circle surrounding the whole sanctuary (it's a big open room with rows of folding chairs in the middle) and all hold hands around the circle, and sing "Bless'd Be the Tie That Binds."
I think there might have also been a time of going around the room sharing what we'd chosen to be our "verse of the year" for the New Year.
And of course there were prayers and readings and singing.

Ha! That's a new one for me. I like it! [:)] But I see it's been around; I'd just never heard it before. Wiktionary, Urban Dictionary.
