## What is Groan Zone?

Groan Zone is the dad-joke machine your groan muscles have been waiting for. Tap the button, get a random joke, and brace yourself - the punchline stays hidden until you dare to tap "Show me the punchline."

Over 12,000 dad jokes, puns, and one-liners in a bold, cartoonish comic-book world. Every joke comes with a fresh goofy dad and a totally scientific Groan-o-Meter rating, because some jokes just hurt more than others.

WHY YOU'LL (GROAN AND) LOVE IT
• 12,000+ jokes - you'll never run dry
• The big reveal - punchlines stay secret until you're ready
• Groan-o-Meter - see how much each one stings, from 1 to 5 facepalms (totally made up)
• A new cartoon dad for every single joke
• Bold, playful comic-book design
• No repeats until you've heard them all
• Screenshots are of the actual app with real jokes.

SIMPLE, AND KIND TO YOU
• 100% free - no ads, ever
• No sign-up, no accounts, no nonsense
• Works completely offline (but needs email to report/flag a joke)
• Collects zero data about you

Perfect for breaking the ice, embarrassing your kids, out-dadding the other dads, or filling an awkward silence with something gloriously groan-worthy.

Warning: side effects may include eye-rolling, reluctant laughter, and an uncontrollable urge to say "Hi Hungry, I'm Dad."

Tap. Groan. Repeat.
