Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We are releasing our game in Early Access to gather community feedback early, fix bugs, and improve the overall gameplay experience. Our goal is to develop the game step by step with the players’ suggestions.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to keep the game in Early Access for approximately 3-6 months, during which we will provide regular updates.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan for the full version to feature more content and polish based on community feedback. Our goals include exploring potential new game modes, implementing visual improvements, and further optimizing performance for a smoother overall experience.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access version contains all the core features needed to play a full match from start to finish. In its current state, players can:
- Host and join online rooms using Steam's lobby system.
- Play as one of the three main roles: the Word Owner, the Impostor, or a Normal Player.
- Participate in the clue-giving phase by writing and submitting clues.
- View the list of submitted clues.
- Initiate a vote and cast a ballot to eliminate the suspected Impostor.
- Experience the complete game loop, including the win/loss conditions for both teams.

While the core experience is fully playable, we will be focusing on adding more content, features, and overall polish during the Early Access period.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We do not currently plan to change the price of the game upon leaving Early Access. By purchasing the game during Early Access, you get to play it early and help shape its development at what we intend to be the final price.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Community feedback is the primary reason for our Early Access launch. We will be actively monitoring the Steam Discussions forums to gather player suggestions, bug reports, and ideas. We plan to use this valuable feedback to help us prioritize new features, balance gameplay, and shape the future development of the game.”

About This Game

Gather your friends for a cozy evening... but beware, there's an impostor among you! In this social deduction game, you'll find yourself in a web of deceit woven around a single secret word. While everyone else knows the word, one person does not: The Impostor, who must bluff to survive.

How to Play

Each round, players give one-word clues related to the secret word. The Impostor's goal is to blend in, using the other players' clues to guess the secret word without getting caught. The goal for everyone else is to identify the Impostor by their strange or out-of-place clue and vote them out. A clever clue can expose the Impostor, but a clue that's too obvious might just hand them the secret on a silver platter! Can you find the balance?

Features

  • Thrilling Social Deduction: Designed for 4-12 players, an online party game built on bluffing, deception, and logical reasoning.

  • Creative Wordplay: This isn't just about lying—it's about the art of finding clever clues without revealing the secret word.

  • Warm and Cozy Atmosphere: Feel like you and your friends are gathered for a fun game night by the fireside.

  • Endless Replayability: With different words and different roles each game, no two rounds are ever the same.

  • Easy to Learn, Hard to Master: The rules are simple, but bluffing like a pro and catching liars takes true skill.

Whether you become the brilliant detective who exposes the lie or the master impostor who deceives everyone... every word, every glance, and every vote matters. Gather your friends and find out who you can truly trust!
