A themed grid of 16 words, one secret word — and one player who has no idea which it is. Give clues, sniff out the fake, and vote.

Impostor is a social deduction party game for 3-8 players. One player bluffs through a round of word clues without knowing the secret word — perfect for groups that love Among Us-style mind games without the spaceship.

FAQ

Good to know.

How does the Impostor win?+

By staying hidden through the vote, or by calling the secret word from the grid — even after being caught.

What happens if the vote ties?+

If two or more players share the most votes, the host picks who goes out. If nobody has a majority otherwise, the Impostor slips away with a point.

How long is a game?+

About 10-20 minutes for 3 rounds, depending on group size. The host picks each round's theme and controls the pacing between rounds.

Can I play with 3 players?+

Yes. 3-8 players supported — more players means more clues to hide behind.

Can I play on a TV?+

Yes! Use the TV as a spectator screen and everyone plays from their phones.

Can I play the imposter game online for free?+

Yes — free in the browser, no download and no sign-up. Create a room, share the link, and 3-8 players are in within seconds.

Is it like Among Us?+

Same social-deduction energy, but with words instead of tasks — give clues, read the room, and vote out the fake.
