The classic get-to-know-you game – kept friendly
In Never Have I Ever, someone reads a statement like “Never have I ever built a snowman.” Everyone who has done it puts a finger down. It is a quick way to learn surprising things about each other – and this version is completely clean: no alcohol, nothing embarrassing, nothing risky.
There are 120 prompts in four groups: kids, teens, friends and work. Prompts come in random order and don’t repeat until the whole group has been shown. Add player names to keep track of fingers on screen – the last person with fingers left wins.
How to use
- Choose a group: kids, teens, friends, work or all.
- Press Next (or the space bar) and read the prompt out loud.
- Everyone who has done it puts a finger down. Optional: add player names and tap a name to take one finger away.
- Players with no fingers left are out; the last one standing wins. Restart for a new round.
Ideas for using it
- Class icebreaker. the kids group works for the first week of school or a substitute lesson.
- Team events. work prompts are light and safe for colleagues who don’t know each other yet.
- Family evenings. grandparents and kids playing together – the stories are the fun part.
- Sleepovers. the teens group keeps it funny without anything awkward.
Tips for a good round
Let anyone pass on a prompt, and follow up the interesting ones with “Tell us more!” – that is where the best stories come from. With younger children, play with three fingers so rounds stay short. For a calmer version, skip the fingers and simply raise a hand.
