Liar Game: Imposter Word Game

Liar Game is an imposter game and a party game for groups, the classic who is the spy word game: everyone knows the secret word except the liar. No cards or paper needed, and nobody has to sit out as the word picker, because each player gets the word on their own phone at the same time.

How to play the imposter word game
Share one link and everyone joins. When the host starts, the word appears on every phone at once, while the liar's screen shows only that they are the liar, plus the topic. Take turns describing the word in a few words. Say too much and the liar catches on; say too little and the others start to suspect you. After one round, vote for the liar. If the liar survives the vote, or gets caught and then guesses the word, the liar wins.

Great party games for groups
Game nights, birthday parties, family holidays, road trips, dorm hangouts and office icebreakers. It plays with 3 to 12 people, so it works as one of those party games for groups where nobody waits on the sidelines. If you grew up playing the spy game with paper slips, this app hands out the words for you, round after round.

• 3 to 12 players, with the option of two liars from 5 players up
• Secret words sent to each phone at once, press and hold to peek
• Voting with a tie revote, and a second tie goes to the liar
• The caught liar gets one chance to guess the word
• Scoreboard across rounds
• Clueless Liar mode: the liar gets a similar word and does not know they are the liar
• One phone mode: pass a single phone around the table
• 21 topics: food, animals, places, jobs, sports, countries, instruments, weather, clothes, drinks, desserts, fairy tales, plants and more
• Join with a link, code or QR

Clueless Liar mode is where things get funny: the liar honestly thinks they have the right word and describes something slightly off, and the whole table has to decide who is bluffing and who is just confused. Pick a topic or mix them all. At heart it is a word guessing game, so anyone can learn it in one round, and it's the imposter game to open when the group can't decide what to play.

Tips for your first round
• Keep your clue to a word or two. Too specific and the liar catches on
• If you might be the liar, listen first and blend in with the others
• Before the vote, ask about the clue that sounded off
