1. Never have I ever - Texting Edition

The most popular game deserves to be at the top of our list. Never Have I Ever is one of the best question games where you always learn new things about your friends.

You can play the texting edition of this fun game either with one other person or in a group chat. But the group chat shouldn’t be too crowded, otherwise, you can lose track quickly.

How to play Never Have I Ever

The ground rules of the game are pretty easy. Someone starts off writing, “Never have I ever… “, and fills in a statement of something they’ve never done before. For example: “Never have I ever had a crush on someone from math class.” If your friends have done that before, they’ll reply with an answer to the statement followed by, “Never have I ever…” and a new statement.

- The Emoji Version 🙋‍♀️🙅‍♂️

This version is easier to follow, especially in group chats with more than 3 people. You can use emojis to show what you have or haven’t done in your life.

The agreement is that if you’ve ever done something, you respond with an emoji like this 🙋, and if not, then you reply with an emoji like this 🙅

For example:

Sarah writes: “Never have I ever been given a parking ticket”.

Marco answers: 🙋

Michael answers: 🙅

Fiona answers: 🙋

And without saying a word, you can tell that Marco and Fiona have been given a parking ticket, while Michael hasn’t.

With this version of the game, there are no losers or winners. Just have fun!

- The Countdown Version

The countdown version is for all of you who like to keep track of their points! The rules are pretty much the same, but in this one, you can win.

Every player has 10 lives. More specifically, this means that you can only use this emoji 🙋‍♀️ ten times. The goal is to eliminate all of your opponents as quickly as possible!
