Who it's for

Big groups wanting a short, silly party game with simple rules and a fast turnaround between rounds.

Not for you if…

You want strategic depth β€” this is a light, luck-driven party game built for laughs, not careful planning.

🦊

Vibe's take

Silly and chaotic in short bursts β€” everyone reveals moves at once, so there's a burst of laughter or groans every round rather than long stretches of planning.

About this game

I'm Stuck in the Lift casts you as a delivery courier racing to finish drop-offs before the elevator doors betray you. You secretly plan your moves, bluff and guess what everyone else is planning, and hope your route doesn't collide with an opening lift door and blow your whole delivery β€” fastest to collect stars wins.
