Party Game Novels & Stories

You look beautiful," Anika exclaimed. Sarah grinned and bowed her head, but not before Anika noticed the tiny pink on her cheeks. Jacob made an impatient motion toward Casper. "Why are you standing here while he is standing over there?" Jacob's face stiffened as he examined the room. "I should have known the old bastard would be here." Anika followed his eyes and found Pete Foxhorn holding court within earshot of Casper. Though she wouldn't confess it to Jacob, seeing their business adversary hammering on Casper Sullivan made her incredibly nervous.

It could be something embarrassing, heartwarming, or just plain hilarious. They exchanged amused glances, their curiosity piqued by the unique game. Patty produced a small, decorated box from a nearby table, shaking it playfully. "We have these little memory cards with different topics written on them. You'll pick a card, and whatever topic you get, share a memory related to it!"

I raise my glass, and everyone cheers. “Alright everyone it is time for some games whose ready? The first one is going to last throughout the whole party. You were all given a clothes pin. If you catch someone saying baby, you take their clothes pin and if they have more than one you take them all. At the end of the party whoever has the most wins a prize. I must say these prizes are phenomenal. We will play a few games then we will open gifts towards the end. Enjoy everyone.” I get off the stage and head towards the ladies of the party.

As I savored around, I could see that the party wasn’t crowded; there were a maximum of twenty-five people at the party, and they all seemed close to Lord Jaycee. While my eyes kept moving around, I held a gaze with Lord Jaycee, and he held my gaze and didn’t break it or look away, neither did I. We both stared at each other like we wanted to bore into our souls, but I had to look away when I felt a presence in the room. I looked around, and that was when I saw Alpha Theo and Leo walking into the party. My gaze met with that of Alpha Theo, and I looked away and took more sips of my drink.

Third Person's Point of View After they finished watching Nétflix, they all arranged themselves in a circle around the mini-table. They were going to play truth or dare, but Meli said there was no thrill with truth or dare, so it was just going to be dares. But before they started, they each took a shot of the cocktail they had made. Once they're a bit tipsy, the dares will be more intense.

Natalie…" I walked past him and continued on my way. This time, he didn't follow. When I reached the intersection, Ivy sent me a message. "Ms. Lawson, we're playing a mystery box game at tomorrow's team-building event. Are you coming? I heard everyone's guaranteed to win a prize!" Looking at those words, I smiled and replied, "I'll be there." The next day, I drew a small card at the company team-building event. It didn't say, "Thank you for participating." Instead, it read, "Today's Lucky Winner."

While most people were busy freaking out, two stepped forward—chill and confident. They said they were mages. Seasoned pro in the game. They gave us the rundown: We were stuck in a horror game. Everyone here? Already dead IRL. The castle had thirty floors. Each floor had its own monster—or monsters. The higher you climbed, the scarier they got. Clear all thirty floors, hit the legendary 9,999 points, and you get a second shot at life. Bonus? A cash prize so massive, you'd never have to work again.

♧♧♧ And oh boy, was I right. After Boston University won the game, Tyler and some of his teammates decided to throw a party at his apartment. Conveniently, his building was right next to the one Zaire and I were staying in. The music was loud, bass shaking through the whole apartment while people danced, shouted, and laughed over each other. The place was packed wall to wall, hot and chaotic, and everybody looked like they were having the time of their lives. Everybody except me. I stood with Tyler and two of his friends, trying to keep up with whatever they were talking about, nodding when I was supposed to nod, forcing smiles when they laughed. But my focus was gone.

for as long as I can remember. I’m twenty now, and I’m tired of coming on my own fingers while thinking about him. So when Mia mentioned the party — the one Jace hosts twice a year, invitation only, for people who like to “play” — I made her bring me. I didn’t know what “play” meant until right now. “Holy shit,” Jade breathes. “Is that—” I follow her gaze and my stomach drops. The living room is massive, dimly lit, with naked bodies…people everywhere.

—a fully holographic game funded entirely by Fletcher Group—was held, with me as its chief designer. The venue was packed to capacity, with countless domestic and international investment tycoons and esports titans gathering. After the launch event concluded, Emery and I walked out together. It was then that I spotted Mr. Burch and Mrs. Burch squeezed into the corner. In just six short months, Mr. Burch seemed to have aged 20 years. His hair had gone gray, and his back was hunched. Mrs. Burch, even more so, had lost every trace of her former elegance. She now wore a cheap, tattered coat, and her eyes were dull and clouded.
