Simple game, a person makes a wish. Anyone else can “corrupt” it. Then that person makes a wish of their own, and the cycle continues.

For example:

Person A: I wish I had 1 million dollars.

Person B: Wish granted, but they are Monopoly dollars. My wish: I wish I could fly.

Person C: Wish granted, but sustaining flight requires 500 calories per minute. My wish: I wish I could teleport.

etc.

    Granted but every time you try to tell someone something you know all they hear is static noise or, if written, all they see is scribblings.

    I wish I could print real all-American $100 USD Benjamin’s straight from my hands whenever I wanted.

      Granted. However, subdermal printing has yet to be perfected leaving your freshly printed bills stained (and sometimes still wet) with your own blood.

      I wish I could get a full night’s sleep in a matter of minutes.

        Granted! You will get a full night’s sleep in a matter of minutes. You will fall asleep for 1 minute at 4 random times during the day.

        I wish I could adjust my body temperature at will.

          Granted. You notice you burn fat in hours and become addicted. You die from starvation.

          I wish I had a lamp with three wishes.

            Wish granted. As part of the contract you are turned into a genie and bound to the lamp for 1,000 years, and your three wishes will be granted after you first serve the lamp for that period of time.

            I wish mosquitos bites bolstered immune systems instead of carrying diseases like malaria.

              Granted! Your immune system becomes so bolstered it became autoimmune as you eat your own brain out.

              I wish it’s less work to find a girlfriend.

                Granted! As technology develops rapidly it’s become possible for companies to offer AI girlfriends for those seeking convenience.

                I wish I could take a ride on a space shuttle and walk on the moon just once.
