Never Have I...
Rules and Setup
​
Game Overview: Never Have I Ever: Risque Edition is a fun and bold twist on the classic party game, designed for consenting adults who are comfortable sharing some of their most outrageous, funny, or scandalous experiences. It’s perfect for a night of laughter, surprises, and getting to know your friends in a whole new way.
​​
Objective: The objective of the game is to be the last player with fingers still raised, revealing who has the most untold secrets. Alternatively, the host may decide on a point system or elimination style, where players gradually drop out when all fingers are down.
Game Setup:
-
Seating Arrangement: Gather players in a circle to ensure everyone can easily see and hear each other. This setup encourages interaction and makes the game feel more inclusive.
-
Decide on the Number of Statements: Players will take turns making “Never Have I Ever” statements. Each player should decide on a set number of turns (e.g., 3 or 5 rounds), or the game can continue until everyone decides to stop.
-
Establish Game Boundaries: Make sure all participants are comfortable with the risque nature of the game. Have a quick discussion about any off-limits topics or personal boundaries.
-
Determine the Gesture: Traditionally, players start with ten fingers raised, lowering a finger each time they have done the action being called out. Alternatively, players can take a sip of their drink if they have done the activity (adjust alcohol involvement based on comfort).
-
Prepare Game Prompts: If desired, prepare a mix of risque prompts on cards or have a random spinner to select prompts, adding an element of surprise.
Game Rules:
-
Take Turns: Players take turns making statements that start with “Never Have I Ever…” followed by something they have never done but think others might have.
-
Be Honest: Players who have done the action described must lower a finger or take a sip of their drink.
-
No Repeat Statements: Players should not repeat statements already said during the game.
-
Respect Privacy: While this game encourages sharing, players are not obligated to explain their answers unless they want to. No one should pressure another player for more details.
-
Continue Until the End: The game continues until a set number of turns are completed, or until one player remains with fingers up (or the host decides to end).
Tips for the Host:
-
Create a Comfortable Environment: Set the tone by making sure the environment is relaxed. Offer drinks, snacks, and create a fun, laid-back vibe.
-
Gauge Comfort Levels: Remind everyone that the game is about fun, not judgment. Players should feel comfortable skipping their turn or passing on a statement if they prefer.
-
Moderate Drinking: If incorporating drinks, encourage responsible consumption. Consider offering non-alcoholic drinks for those who don’t wish to drink alcohol.
-
Keep It Fun: Balance the risque nature of statements to maintain a fun atmosphere. Avoid overly personal or potentially upsetting topics.
-
Have Backup Statements: Prepare a few icebreaker statements to get things going if players are hesitant at first.
Variations to Playing the Game:
-
Points System: Instead of elimination, assign points for each “Never Have I Ever” statement a player has done. The player with the most points at the end is the “most experienced.”
-
Reverse Statements: Introduce “Have You Ever” rounds where players have to say something they have done, and others lower fingers if they haven’t done it. This twist reverses the classic game’s format and adds a fun change.
-
Timed Rounds: Set a timer for each player’s turn to keep the game moving quickly and maintain energy levels.
-
Team Play: Split into two teams. Each team tries to guess how many players on the opposite team will lower their fingers for each statement, making it competitive and adding a strategy element.
-
Dares for Fingers Down: When a player lowers a finger, they must complete a quick dare (pre-approved by all players) or answer a funny question.
Important Notes:
-
Consent is Key: This game is for adults who are comfortable with each other and the content. Ensure everyone’s boundaries are respected throughout.
-
Stay Light-hearted: The goal is to laugh and have a good time. If a statement feels too intense or personal, it’s okay to move on quickly to keep the fun vibe.
