This is a bit like Escape the Night, shocker.

Anyway my suggestion is a new party game which is like Escape the Night. You're probably wondering how it'll work, so I wish to explain.

7-12 players join a game and they are all put in a room. The players will be invisible to each other and the players must vote someone they want to participate in the challenge. There will be mannequins of the other players and you punch the one you vote for, example if Pingu wants Elmo to participate, he punches the mannequin of Elmo. Once everyone has voted, two votes will randomly be selected to partake in a challenge. Challenges will be 2 minutes long.
The players that don't get voted will be put in Spectator mode and can fly around and watch the challenge. The players drawn must complete a challenge, it'll be something easy like a parkour or riddles or something. The first to finish the challenge gets to live, but the other 'dies' and is out of the game. If you're dead, you may spectate or leave the game. If nobody gets the challenge done within the 2 minutes, both of the players 'die' and are out. If a player survives the challenge, then the group gets an artifact. The group will need four artifacts.
When the group gets four artifacts, the survivors must place the artifacts in the room in a correct way and then the group must vote someone to stand in the middle. When the person stands in the middle, everyone must stand around the circle. (Normally in ETN there is some sort of chant/spell, I'll do something different here) Those around the circle must complete one math question each, the person in the middle waits. Anyone who gets their question wrong 'dies' and is out. What about the person in the middle? Well they're going to be the sacrifice for the others to 'Escape the Zone' and win the game.

There would be leader-boards for the top 5 of each category:
  • Most Escapes
  • Most Challenge Wins
  • Most Times Played(Without quitting the game. Even if you die, you can still possibly be here but you have to spectate and cannot leave if you wish to be potentially put on this leader-board)
So what do you guys think? I know it's copying a show but a different name, I feel it's fine and it'd be a fun game to play.

Seems a bit convoluted.
I like it.
 
It seems kind of long, so I think the rounds could be shortened just a bit. Perhaps 60-90 seconds?

Otherwise, I think this sounds like a very fun game mode, and I'd really like to see this implemented in PartyZone.

Wow, for some reason I thought you wouldn't agree with this suggestion xD. I'm glad you like it however.

You need 4 artifacts, each round is 2 minutes(challenges) and 15 seconds(voting) so it'd be about 9 minutes before the grand finale ritual, which wouldn't take long. It'd be a fairly long game, like 10 minutes at most but I feel people would enjoy it despite its length.

I'm not too into this particular suggestion, but that's mostly because it's kinda all over this place.
I understand the general concept though and it's ok.
 
Okay so I see that people are unsure on the time, currently seeing if I can work around it.
 
thanks to those who agree with my suggestion <3
 
I'm happy to those who supported this suggestion <3

I like it, it clearly has potential to attract many players to party zone.
