Reading this needs nothing. Starting a session needs a nickname, which takes about a minute and asks for no email address.
What it is
A real question, one true answer and a pile of convincing lies. Find the truth.
How it plays
- 1
A real question goes up, with the real answer hidden.
- 2
Everyone writes a convincing fake answer.
- 3
All the answers are shuffled together. Find the true one, and score when someone falls for yours.
The details
- Players
- 3–8 players. The host can set the number in advance, or leave it open and close the door once everyone has arrived.
- How long
- About a few minutes of playing. The session itself lasts as long as the host sets, from an hour to a week, so nobody has to be at their phone at the same time.
- Kind of game
- Bluffing and hidden roles
- Suitable for
- Anyone. Nothing in it that anybody needs to be warned about.
- What is kept
- Everything written in a session is encrypted, and the whole session is deleted when it ends. What that means.
