About Imposter
Imposter is the free party game of lies — a social-deduction word game where everyone shares a secret word except one hidden faker. Pass one phone around the table, drop one-word clues, and catch the imposter before time runs out.
Why we built it
Great party games shouldn't need a box, a login, or a fifteen-minute rules explanation. We wanted the classic "who's the imposter" word game to be something you could start in ten seconds with whoever's in the room — no app store, no accounts, no setup friction. So we built it to run entirely in your browser and play on a single shared device.
What makes it different
- 700+ curated words across 14 categories — food, movies, music, memes, celebrities, animals and more.
- Custom word packs so you can play with inside jokes, coworkers' names, or your own themes.
- A leaderboard that remembers — rounds add up across the night so you can settle who's the best liar.
- Truly free — no download, no signup, and no ads between rounds.
How it works
Everyone secretly views their card by holding it: the crew all see the same secret word, while the imposter gets only a vague hint (or nothing). Players take turns giving a single clue, then discuss, accuse, and vote. Catch the imposter and the crew scores; slip past the vote or guess the word and the imposter scores big.
Our promise
We keep it simple, keep it free, and keep your game on your device — no accounts to create and no personal data to hand over. See our Privacy Policy for the details, or get in touch if you have ideas, feedback, or a word pack you'd love to see.
