How to play

01

Deal in secret

Each player taps the phone and sees their card privately: the secret word, or «IMPOSTOR» if they have to improvise. Then they pass the device.

02

Give a clue

In turns, each one says a single clue related to the word, without saying it. The impostor pretends to know it.

03

Debate and vote

With the timer, you debate who fits the least. Then you vote for a suspect and reveal whether they were the impostor.

How I built it

It started as a native Swift app and I ported it to the browser. The making-of is in its case study.
