Online Guessing Game Eliminates Viewers Based on Quirky Criteria

In a new online guessing game trend, a video creator challenges viewers to avoid elimination through a series of criteria. The creator, known online as Harrison James (@harrisontjames), posted a video on May 27, 2025, outlining the rules. Participants are eliminated based on their name, location (Hawaii residents are out), the third app that appears when tapping the share button, whether they are wearing a slipper, the color of a ring in their profile picture (yellow is out), and a chosen number between 1-20 (10 is out). The video's popularity suggests a growing interest in these types of online challenges. While the game itself is simple, the interactive element and the mystery of whether one would survive the eliminations make it compelling. The video's success highlights the appeal of simple, engaging content on social media platforms.
