About this game

About Never Have I Ever

Never Have I Ever brings the classic confession game to your phone. A line like "I have never turned off my alarm and gone back to sleep" appears, and everyone says whether they've done it. Nobody needs to lie; the fun is in the story the person who "has" gets to tell.

Who is it for?

It's perfect for friend groups who want to turn an evening into a long conversation. The Travel pack fits a get-together after a trip, and School suits a reunion with old classmates. The Work pack helps office teams bond through laughter, while Bold is only recommended for adults who know each other well.

How to play

Online room

  1. Create a room, pick a pack and share the code with everyone.
  2. When a line appears, tap I HAVE or I HAVE NEVER.
  3. Once everyone has answered, you see who has and who hasn't, all at the same moment.
  4. When the game ends, everyone gets a title based on their answers.

One phone

Whoever can see the screen reads the line. Those who have done it raise a hand or say "I have", and anyone who wants to tells the story. Tap the screen to move to the next line. Titles are only handed out in online rooms.

Rules

  • There are no points. At the end, titles such as "The Wild One", "Squeaky Clean", "The Only One" or "Just Like Us" are handed out; depending on the pack, you might also see "Adventurer" or "Homebody".
  • A game can be 5, 10 or 15 lines long; the 20-line game is part of Premium.
  • Everyday, Friends, Relationship, Travel and Bold are free. School, Work and Internet are locked.

Tips

  • Answers are only counted, and nobody gets a penalty, so everyone can play relaxed.
  • Pause on any line where only one person says "I have". That story is usually the best of the night.
  • If some people at the table don't know each other well, warm up with Everyday and save Bold for the end.

Example lines

  • I have never wondered about the finale of a series and read the ending online.
  • I have never messed up my hair myself as soon as I left the hairdresser.
  • I have never fed a stray animal wherever I went.
  • I have never acted like someone I'm not in front of friends.
  • I have never hidden a crush from my friends.

Every line is on the Never Have I Ever questions page.

FAQ

How many players?

You can play with two, but the game comes alive in a crowd. A room created in the browser is free for up to eight people; someone with Premium in the app can create a room for twenty.

Is it free?

Five packs are completely free, and you don't need an account to play. Premium in the app unlocks School, Work and Internet.

Do I need a phone?

In an online room, everyone uses their own device so answers stay secret. If there's only one phone at the table, choose one-phone mode and answer out loud.
