“Secret Corpse” is the new sequel to Secret Hitler. In this version, the Corpse is that person who said they’d show up at game night and then blew everyone off. After that, their teammates have to make bad-faith arguments claiming that the corpse is definitely alive. At the same time, everyone else has to write angry letters to vocalize that it’s unfair.

If the Secret Corpse does eventually show, their teammates must gloat, and the Secret Corpse gets to choose what games are played and gets to modify the game rules however they desire. Everyone else has to begin every statement with some variation of, “First off, I’d like to say how thankful I am that the Secret Corpse could join us. It’s been a harrowing journey for them to do the bare minimum.”
