New Game Variations to Party Game Minigame + New Minigame Idea

[Buttery_Flapjack]

New Game Variations to Party Game Minigame:

Red-light, green-light, 1, 2, 3:
Players start along a starting line and must reach the end of the map by only moving when "green-light" is announced. Players who move on "red-light" will have to go back to the start.

Dance Dance Revolution:
Players will begin in the center of four giant grids pointing up, down, left, and right. They will have to run to the correct direction or they will have points deducted from their total score. Alternatively, this could be stylized like the Beauboix (I have no idea if I spelled that right I fear) minigame from the recent anniversary game.

Running Race (not sure what to call it)
Players will have to reach the end of the map by jumping over obstacles and avoiding spells casted by other players to make them trip. Essentially this would be the same thing as the ice skating minigame but with the ability to cast spells on other players like in star racing and sledding.

New Minigame Idea:

Defend Hogsworth/Protect the Castle/Defend <insert something here> Minigame:
3-4 Minimum players

- Try to stop mobs from getting into or destroying Hogsworth/castle/structure
- Mobs could match the environment for the round (ex: snatchers in a forest while players defend a safehouse)
- Structure could have a health bar or players lose if a certain amount of mobs were allowed to enter the building/zone

**Alternatively this could be done as PVP but PVP games are less likely to be played

1. I kinda like tho it would be another game heavily dependent on ping I believe
2. I wouldn't enjoy this, doesn't seem that fun
3. Running race - I believe Leyak suggested this and he got declined (I'll send link if I find)
Like the idea nonetheless
4. I really like this or something along the lines, how do you think it should work for party games tho since people are competing?

1. Yeah I agree but I am not sure how to fix that
2. You are simply not a dancing queen but I get it
3. Aur nauurr I probably missed it
4. This is not for party games. This is a suggestion for an entirely new game mode. Like another option for dailies like flying, melting floor, etc.

I would loveee to see some more game variation options in party games to keep it fun & interesting! Some people have gotten toooo goood (lol). These are all great idea, but even if these specifically don't get ideas some newly added variations in general would be wonderful to see!

Hi there @Buttery_Flapjack !

This suggestion has been accepted and completed! We really liked these ideas and used the "Red-light, green-light" , and "Running Race" proposals as inspirations for our new Party Games Mode, Grimlotts Break Out. In this gamemode players have to avoid obstacles and spells cast on them, whilst also running at different intervals.
We will not be pursuing the "Dance Dance Revolution" idea at this time, but we do suggest playing the Cauldron Dash gamemode in Party Games, as this is similar concept in some respects!
Finally, we are making note of "Protect the Castle" minigame idea, and will investigate the feasibility of making this a Dungeon. However in the mean time this idea aligns closely with our existing 5th Battle of Potterworld Dungeon!

Thank you so much for creating this suggestion and we hope you have a magical day!
