FAQ

How do you play Never Have I Ever?

Everyone holds up ten fingers. Players take turns saying “never have I ever…” plus something they haven’t done. Anyone who HAS done it puts a finger down. Last player with fingers up wins. In the drinking version, a sip replaces the finger.

What are good never have i ever questions?

The best ones are specific and slightly incriminating: “never have I ever pretended my phone rang to escape a conversation” beats “never have I ever lied”. Specific questions trigger stories, and the stories are the actual game.

Can you say something you HAVE done?

By the classic rules, no. You say things you haven’t done to catch others. But most groups allow the strategic “targeting” version, where saying something you know a friend has done is not just legal, it’s encouraged.

Is this the same as the Netflix show?

No. “Never Have I Ever” is also a Netflix comedy series named after this exact party game. This page is the game: 110 questions to play with friends.
