Quick overview
Afterparty is an adventure title that puts players in the shoes of Milo and Lola, two friends who find themselves stuck in the afterlife. The central, tongue-in-cheek objective: outdrink Satan in a series of increasingly absurd contests to earn their way out of Hell. The game is available on Mac and mixes dark comedy with narrative-driven gameplay.
How the game plays
Gameplay centers on conversation and choices. You’ll move through colorful, stylized locations in the underworld, pick dialogue options that influence relationships and outcomes, and take part in party-style mini-games — chief among them, drunken challenges against demonic opponents. Exploration and light puzzle-solving are woven into the story, giving players opportunities to uncover secrets and alter how scenes unfold.
The world and its cast
Hell in this game is less grim and more bizarre: neon-drenched clubs, oddball citizens of the afterlife, and a variety of memorable side characters. Milo and Lola’s chemistry anchors the narrative, while clever writing and banter make interactions feel lively and consequential.
