How to Play

  • Each round, a category (e.g. Fruits, Superheroes, Countries) is picked, then a true word and a phony word from that same category are secretly chosen.
  • Pass the device. Everyone receives the true word, except for one random Imposter who gets the phony word. Everyone sees the category, so the Imposter has a fighting chance to blend in.
  • After all words are revealed, players take turns describing their word. The Imposter must give their own description (or blend in by making up a description on what they think the true word is)
  • Vote on who the Imposter is. Anyone who guesses correctly gets a point. The Imposter cannot score.
