Question about gaming

[justfists]

Hello, I hope that everyone is preparing well for their finals.

If you need any help, I am a good study partner!

Otherwise, I sincerely need your help. What are some good party games? Please keep in mind, I am not a "gamer." I do like the less serious racing games, and some of the dancing games. But for no reason what-so-ever, I'd like a wider variety to consider.

Thank you for your help.

is birthday girl shopping for some fun?

[justfists]

Absolutely not! I already told you what my plans were for that.

[maskreant]

yeah, but i just wanted to announce to everyone that it's soon.

[justfists]

... Thank you.

[why did you do that, that's rude, Akira]

[maskreant]

no problem. this is what friends are for.

[ he is born this way ]

Never-Have-I-Ever and Truth or Dare are staples. Beer pong is fun, but I'm not very good at it.

Oh, and we played Battleshots at my last birthday. Surprisingly requires a lot of strategy.

[justfists]

Battleshots?

I've heard of the other two, and even beer pong. But what are Battleshots?

[heiroglyphs]

It's like Battleship, except when your ships are hit, you take a shot.

We made game boards. They're amazing.

[She'll even link a picture.]

[justfists]

... That seems a little... Dangerous? What is in the shots?

[heiroglyphs]

Whatever you want them to be. We usually just did beer so that people didn't end up sick?
A couple idiots decided to do vodka though and
Lets just say I'm glad we didn't do it at my apartment.

[justfists]

Beer seems a lot less dangerous... Vodka was what I thought you were showing me.

[heiroglyphs]

Well, some people can handle their alcohol.
Some people can't.
I'm not going to spend my night policing what everybody drinks.

[justfists]

Well, I don't think I'm old enough to drink in the US. And aren't they very strict about that here?

[heiroglyphs]

I mean
I never had anyone stop me
But even if they did I think my German ID would have smoothed things over.
But I'm 21 now anyway so it doesn't even matter.

[spirithacker]

dario party
esp if you want to be better friends at the end

[Shinji, no.]

[justfists]

Oh, that sounds like fun!

[she absolutely gets it, and endorses.]

I think I have the older versions of that game.

[spirithacker]

theres a bunch
tbh the old ones are just as fun as the new ones
still playable

[usurpers]

for racing get BLUR. it’s like lario kart but with real cars
left 2 die 2
dekken 7
fatal combat x
call to arms 4
denizen evil 6

[justfists]

Part of the fun of Lariokart is the boosts and the characters, but I see what you're saying.

I've never heard of any of the others though.

[usurpers]

in blur you get the same boosts pm. you just swap characters for cars.

none of them? they’re pretty popular

[kindhearted]

Critter Crossing Festival is a really good one! It's a board game style game with little mini games. Kinda like the other party video games but way less stressful and way cuter imo.

[justfists]

Oh! I've seen pictures! It's the one with the cute animal characters, right?

[no... makoto... that's so vague...]

[kindhearted]

[It's vague, but Makoto isn't wrong in the case of Critter Crossing though!]

That's right!! You can pick which critter to play as, and if you have any of the IRL Critter Crossing figures, you can scan them to unlock those critters in the game!

[truedetective]

That's very kind of you.
Are you specifically looking for video games?

[justfists]

Not exactly. Board games seem like they'd be fun.

[truedetective]

All right. And are you looking for something that people can jump into and play quickly, or something to play for an evening?

[justchords]

are you looking for board games or just video games? because monopoly is always good for ruining friendships

[justfists]

I've played monopoly once... It seemed very had.

[just let her destroy everyone at Lariokart, it's fine.]

[justchords]

it's basically real estate: the game, so that seems about right

oh card games are always a good option, too. they're pretty simple, and the likelihood of wars being started is surprisingly low

unless you're playing war

I did nothing but study all week! I'm a little worried about school because I've been distracted lately.

Do you want to drop by the library and study sometime?

[justfists]

Oh no! Because of the memories? Or is it for another reason?

Either way, I'd be happy to help you study. I've been studying extra hard, just in case I missed something ever since I got the app.

[physix]

Oh, it's not app related. There's another reason. One of my rabbits got sick so I took her to the vet. She's making a swift recovery! I had to take another day off and I'm a bit behind.

Thanks for helping me out! When do you want to study? I can find a good time for it.
