Wiretap: Spy Party Word Game

TRANSMISSION INCOMING.

Your team shares four secret keywords. Each round, one of you, the Encryptor, receives a secret 3-digit code and must write clues that point your teammates to the right keywords in the right order. Your team knows the keywords, so clever clues get decoded. The enemy team doesn't. But they hear every word you say, and if your clues are too obvious, they will crack your code and intercept it.

Wiretap is a team-versus-team word deduction party game for 2–12 players. Everyone plays on their own phone or tablet, connected over local WiFi. No accounts, no sign-ups, and no internet connection required.

HOW A MISSION WORKS • Team Alpha and Team Bravo each get 4 secret keywords, numbered 1–4 • Each round the Encryptor draws a 3-digit code (like 2-4-1) and writes one clue per digit • Teammates decode the clue order, while the enemy team tries to intercept it • Intercept the enemy's code twice to win. Misread your own team's clues twice and you lose • Every round raises the stakes: each clue you transmit is one more pattern the enemy can study

FEATURES • 2 to 12 players on two teams, from 1v1 duels to 6v6 party chaos • Local WiFi multiplayer: host a room, friends join with a 6-letter room code or automatic discovery • Bots fill empty seats. Practice solo or even out uneven teams • 10 themed word decks: everyday, animals, food & drink, technology, space, mythology, music, nature, professions, buildings • House rules: rounds, interceptions to win, miscommunication limit, optional turn timers • Interactive tutorial that teaches the game in minutes • Personal stats and agent ranks. Climb from Recruit to Agent to Spymaster • Spy-thriller interface: classified documents, scanlines, dark mode all the way down • Sound effects and haptics

WIRETAP PREMIUM (optional one-time purchase) • Unlocks all 10 word decks • Elite bot opponents • Removes ads One purchase unlocks the full arsenal for every game you host. No subscription.

GOOD TO KNOW • Wiretap is played in person with the people in the room: all players join the same WiFi network • Best with 4 or more players, but bots make any headcount work • A game takes about 15–30 minutes • All the fun of board game night, no table or cards required • Perfect for parties, family game night, icebreakers, and team building

Gather your agents. Set up the wiretap. And whatever you do, don't say the keyword.
