Afterparty

About

Afterparty casts you as Milo and Lola, two dead friends stuck in Hell with a single shot at freedom. Outdrinking Satan isn’t just the goal, it’s the only rule. Switch between characters to navigate a branching dialogue system where choices shape relationships and story outcomes. Explore interconnected underworld islands via the River Styx, balancing chaotic binges with cryptic clues about why you’re stuck there. The game mixes quick-witted banter with slapstick antics, letting you prioritize partying, problem-solving, or figuring out the mystery of your doom. The drink mechanics stand out, over 30 liquors alter dialogue and personality traits, forcing you to adapt to spiraling consequences. Demonic mini-games like beer pong and dance battles add absurd variety, while the soundtrack by scntfc blends eerie and upbeat tones to match the tone shifts. With a 80 Metacritic score and an average playtime of 8, 10 hours, it’s a brisk but memorable romp. The cast of hellraisers and their side stories keep the chaos fresh, even if the script occasionally overreaches. A bold, funny experiment in character-driven absurdism.
