This is another game I have seen elsewhere and I thought you might like. It is based on the idea you should be careful what you wish for. The first person makes a wish; the second grants it but shows the downside; then the second person makes a wish of his/her own. For example

I wish I could meet Magrus

Granted. You meet him in a bar where they play country music. He is not happy because he feels his brain is being strangled by chicken wire. You are drunk and do not get out of his way in the 15 seconds he considers reasonable. So he tips you over and you are crushed and trampled in the ensuing melee. You spend the next 6 months in traction.

First wish

I wish I had a prehensile tail

First wish

I wish I had a prehensile tail[/QUOTE]Your wish is granted, only to discover that your new found tail not only possess' a mind of its own, but one that is inclined towards acts most nefarious and mischievious. These acts, however annoying and inconvient they prove to be, are made only worse by the fact that this tail holds no desire to work with you, and for your benefit, but holds a rather strong penchent for targeting middle-aged, Chinese Cobblers who share the middle name of 'Effram'. The tail otherwise remains both inactive, and invisible, as though it failed to exist in the first place.


My Wish: To never be required to leave the noble status of 'student' in lieu of the real world.

Your wish is granted. You remain a student for the rest of your life. Sadly this means that you have no companions of your own age in later life. As you have never earned any money the young women you are in contact with will not consider you as a sugar daddy. Neither will anyone listen to a word you say because you are a student.You die, lonely and embittered, but very well educated. Pity it all went to waste

I wish I could fly

Is this with wings, or magical flying? Oh well, I'll just do both.

Wings: You gain leathery wings, like that of a bat, you are considered a Demon and forced to live on the outskits of towns scavanging for food.

Magical flying(no wings): Your fling high above the city having a good time when it cuts out, dropping you onto a spire. You get the picture.

I wish to be a multi-billionare.

One day you win the lottery and become a millionaire. In less than a day an army of papparazzis and journalists gather around your home, taking pictures of your family, your <insert best car type here> you have just bought, pestering your for information about your private life. Next day you are in the papers as the main character of far-fetched lies... Your mailbox is flooded with begging mails (donate for this, save that, invest in this, have compassion on that etc). so you have to move to a new place.
Your gf leaves you because she wants a quite life and she thinks that you have become too self-satisfied with all the money on your hands.

I wish I didn't have to wear contact lenses.
(Now I'm really curious what's the downside of that!)

Shazam your wish is granted. You are suddenly endowed with superpowers and you shoot laser beams from your eyes. The contact lenses melt and blind you. You have no control over your power and being blind you die in the house fire which ensues.

I wish I had a garden

You have a garden. Everything goes fine for a few months. you realize that your visitors to the garden have been vanishing, and upon closer inspection, your garden has turned into a Person eatting bunch of plants, and you too are to are feed to the young plants. Have a nice day.

I wish for world domination.

You forgot to specify which world, end up dominating Mars and slowly suffocating & beng squashed by the higher gravity.

I wish for one night of hot, steaming lovemaking with Angelina Jolie.

angelina is actually brad pitts crossdressing identity... have fun.


yours is my wish, but with either J Lo, Liz Hurley, or kelly hu, along with angie.

As you see, Lestat, your wish is granted. Have a good time with the girls...and Phreddie

I wish Lestat survives the experience of hot steaming love with Phreddie

Oops, Phreddie edited his reply and now mine makes little sense. Never mind

Granted, they both wake up and have heart attacks and die.

I wish for universal conquest, on this Plane of exsistance.

The Beta-Centaurians happily comply, conquering the whole universe and oppressing the people of Earth, including you.

I wish for a 1000 wishes.

Granted, evil clowns burst through your front door weilding hatches and comence to attack you, as you wish for it to stop 1000 times.

I wish I was in a famuos rock band.

You are, and die of an OD in your late 30's.

I wish I was happy.

[QUOTE=Demortis]I wish I was in a famuos rock band.[/QUOTE]Granted, you can't cope with the succes, get into heroin & alcohol, and die suffocating in your own vomit. (Or shot by a deranged fan, if you wish. You don't have to marry Yoko Ono though).

I wish I had every good CRPG at the moment it is released, without paying for it.

[QUOTE=Dottie]You are, and die of an OD in your late 30's.

I wish I was happy.[/QUOTE]

Granted. You were happy. Didn't last though

Lestat is next

You find happiness with someone, only to find out that they were cheating on you and then they were run over by a semitruck.

I wish I was immortal.With out that whole, "there can be only one" bit.

[QUOTE=Demortis]I wish I was immortal.With out that whole, "there can be only one" bit.[/QUOTE]Granted, you grow older and older start suffering from all old age diseases you can imagine and a few you didn't even know, until arrive at a stage of eternal decripit senility.

I'll repeat my wish since it hasn't been perverted yet:
I wish I had every good CRPG at the moment it is released, without paying for it.

If i know what that was, I would grant you your demise (that and I didnt even know you had post man, my bad.)

[QUOTE=Lestat]

Granted. You get every good CRPG for free the moment it is released. The reason for this is you have been sold into slavery and you master requires you to play these games 20 hours a day, every day. He varies the conditions you play in to see the effect of extreme cold, heat etc on your strategy and reaction time. He performs odd surgical experiments on you adding and subtracting limbs at will. Eventually you die of his curiosity.

I wish Demortis became a peaceful and helpful person, with no interest in destruction
