This is a very simple and fun game. The first person makes a wish, and each following person finds some way to corrupt the wish and then makes a new wish. For example:

Person 1. I wish I had a dog

Person 2. You have a dog, but it dies the day after you get it

I wish I had a muffin

Person 3: You get a muffin, but you drop it and have to throw it away.

And so on.

Your firt wish to corrupt is this:

I wish I had a new car.

You become Einstein's intellectual superior. And then you start wondering about the meaning of life and everything becomes pointless and you end up an alcoholic.

I wish I could wish for more wishes.

Mar-26-2016 16:12

You get all the wishes you could wish for and they all come true. Then you realize you have nothing left in life to look forward to, everything becomes pointless and you end up an alcoholic living at the local shelter.

I wish my husband was a more cheerful guy. :/

He becomes a regular Crusty the Clown but he constantly wakes you up tooting his horn and throwing confetti over you. Eventually you suffer from severe sleep deprivation.

I wish I could time travel.

Mar-27-2016 01:43

You can time travel, but unfortunately on one jaunt to the late Triassic period you inadvertently change the future by treading on an ant. This causes a chain of events that, when you get back to your own time, one difference exists but only you notice, eventually. Green now means stop at traffic lights, and red go, and you are perpetually fearful at intersections vowing not to time travel again.

I wish I could win an Oscar

You win it, but it was rigged with an poison that manifests in the body of someone upon an touch. And is extremely lethal.

You save yourselves a whole seven bucks and can play 12 cases a day. It seems though that in every case all your suspects clam up after the first question. Full of agony and frustration you throw your computer out of the window.

I wish I had the power of hypnosis.

Mar-28-2016 08:53

I don't play in computer, i play in mobile. Your argument is invalid.

You have the power of hypnosis, but you have to be nearly dead to use it and only women wearing an red dress can be hypnotized. Also, you have to be in your home.

I wish that all the townies will be my contacts.

Mar-28-2016 17:36

They all become your contacts but all they say is "I know nothing about that".

I wish I didn't keep getting the same clues over and over during a villain hunt.

Mar-28-2016 18:49

Lucky you, you now get at least 30 different clues during your villain hunt before getting a repeat. The only problem is that 99% of the clues are for the other cities you are currently not in. Also there is no guarantee that when you do get clues for the city you are in they won't be repeats.

I wish that the next person can't corrupt my wish.

Congratulations, Your wish isn't corruptible! You are now the proud victor of the game. This pride seems to glow in your chest like an ember. It makes you feel all warm and fuzzy- but wait... there's more. You walk into the bar and the room falls eerily quiet, not even your friends care to look you in the eye. You move to a chair by your closest confidant who doesn't even look you in the eye. The silence doesn't break. The rising tension tells you, you need to get out and fast. So you leave, thirsty and a bit wounded. You'd thought winning would be more upbeat...
You walk back to your small flat, wondering how everyone could be such sore losers when a small boy runs up to you and snatches your wallet right out of your pocket and runs into a nearby ally. Being the quick gal you are, you race after him. You catch him trying to scale a ladder which is just out of his reach. With a cold glare you snatch the wallet back and twist his ear. The severe scolding wasn't your usual form of punishment for little thieves but his age buys him some mercy. This is when you hear it... the faint but clear sound of a gun cocking. You turn to see your fellow agents surrounding you. The boy was a trap and you walked right into it. But your wish is still incorruptible. The gun points at your head.
"We're sorry... but it's the only way to return the balance..." the man holding the gun says. The bullet explodes from the gun and you jump. A scream rips from your lips as you sit straight up in bed. Sweat dripping from your face as your heart pounds wildly in your chest. You look around your small apartment and thank god it was only a dream... You realize a perfect incorruptible wish is impossible and go to the bar to have a drink to wash away the sour memory.

I wish I could pass all of my classes with flying colors without studying all night
