I have had several friends comment that Party Pal is similar to the boardgame ImaginIff.  I’m never sure what to say as I’ve never played the game.  The basis for Party Pal is a game I used to play called the Made Up Game.   The name came from the process of making up 5-10 questions each before starting to play.   Party Pal is the same game, but with pre-canned questions.

In talking with friends more, it sounds like the ImaginIff questions all take the form “ImaginIff <blank> was a type of candy.”  While Party Pal does contain a lot of those kinds of questions, it also has many that take the form “Who would make the best car salesperson?”  This works in Party Pal because it is electronic and all the players names can be entered before playing.

In the end, both games are only as good as their questions, though some good funny friends can make any slightly embarassing question hilarious.
