Impostor Word

🕵️ One secret word. One liar among you. Can your group find the Impostor?

Impostor Word is a free social deduction party game for 3–12 players, designed for game nights, hostels, road trips, family dinners, and online hangouts. One player gets a different word. Everyone else gets the same word. Give one-word clues, debate, vote, and try to catch the impostor before they escape.

🎯 HOW TO PLAY

Pass the phone — each player secretly sees a word (the impostor sees nothing)
Each player gives one clue — vague enough to fool the impostor, clear enough for teammates
Discuss, debate, and vote on who the impostor is
If caught, the impostor gets one chance to guess the word and steal the win
