This paper explores the emerging adult parlor game variant Strip Rock-Paper-Scissors: Ghost Edition (SRPS:GE). By extrapolating the traditional zero-sum mechanics of Rock-Paper-Scissors (RPS) into a gamified shedding of physical garments and the introduction of "ghost" mechanics—representing the absence of a player, a loss of a turn, or a metaphysical penalty—SRPS:GE creates a unique framework. This paper deconstructs the game’s mechanics, analyzes the psychological impact of synchronous vulnerability, and examines the "Ghost Edition" as a post-modern commentary on presence, absence, and consent within competitive play.
Variations on this rule set have appeared in everything from adult party games to video games. The Playstation 3, for example, featured interactive Blu-ray content where players could challenge digital idols to games of strip rock-paper-scissors—winning rounds caused the on-screen character to lose clothing until she reached a swimsuit. Independent developers have also embraced the concept, creating games like “BlushHand X” and “Mega Victory!: Sexy Rock Paper Scissors,” where players compete against animated opponents in what is effectively a modern digital version of the same concept.
The term "Strip" added to RPS could imply a version of the game where something is progressively removed or revealed based on the game's outcome.
As players lose layers, their threshold for risk changes. A player with three layers remaining may play optimally. A player on their final layer experiences a disproportionate fear of loss. This leads to "tilt"—a deviation from optimal strategy where players subconsciously rely on the sign they perceive as strongest (usually Rock, colloquially known as "Rock bias").

The final version of the game is optimized for accessibility across multiple platforms using custom runtime engines:
The core premise follows a protagonist who wakes up in the middle of the night to find a beautiful, spectral ghost girl haunting their bedroom. Instead of a typical horror encounter, the ghost challenges the player to a high-stakes match of Rock-Paper-Scissors.
The Void acts as a chaotic agent. It defeats Rock by eroding it into dust; it defeats Scissors by rusting them into oblivion. However, it is beaten by Paper, which wraps the Void and contains it. Yet, the Void has a unique property: if both players throw the Void, it does not result in a tie. Instead, it results in a "Glitch," tearing the fabric of the game’s reality and forcing a sudden-death round where the loser is instantly banished to the afterlife proper.
