## What is Alias?

Alias is a fast-paced word game for 4–10 friends on one phone. Five rounds change the rules as you play: explain tricky words, act them out, guess famous people, and switch to English for the finale.

In version 1.2, all 10 themed word packs are available for free, covering memes, pop culture, movies, music, food, sports, travel, and more.

HOW TO PLAY

Split into teams, pass the phone to the next player, and score as many points as you can before the timer runs out. Every round introduces a new challenge, keeping the whole game varied and unpredictable.

5 DIFFERENT ROUNDS

TRAP — explain difficult and abstract words. No skipping.

NO WORDS — use charades and gestures without making a sound.

ARTEM WRITES — race through short, intense turns of three words each.

NAMEDROPPING — guess famous people, characters, meme icons, and cultural references.

SOCIABLE — explain English words using English only. Correct answers are worth double points.
