Four-leaf clovers are rare. A St Patrick’s Day game starring your best friend is rarer. Your best friend knows all your secrets. Time to use theirs: put every in-joke you share into a game that only the two of you will fully understand.
Our pick: platformer with the St Patrick’s Day theme. Your best friend dodge snakes and rain, grab gold coins and clovers, and the game finishes with a high five ending carrying your own message. Every line is pre-written and funny out of the box, and you can change any of it.
Idea 1
A classic run-and-jump with a twist: the final boss is someone they know very well.
Sample lines
Idea 2
One tap to play, so your best friend can pick it up in seconds and then spend an hour trying to beat it.

Idea 3
Turns your best friend into an action hero surviving wave after wave. Auto-aim keeps it friendly for beginners.
Sample lines
Make them the hero, you the boss, and the rest of the gang as heckling cameos.
