Whether they’re off on holiday or stuck at home in the drizzle, a summer game starring your best friend brings the sunshine. You and your best friend have survived bad haircuts, worse exes and that one holiday. Celebrate with a game starring the pair of you.
Our pick: flappy flyer with the Summer theme. Your best friend dodge seagulls and sunburn, grab ice cream and beach balls, 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.
