## What is Nessil?

Nessil is a party game for friends and family in the same room.

Players record secret phrases, Nessil plays them backwards, and the guesser tries to imitate the backwards sound before saying what the original phrase was.

The game is made for one iPhone passed around the room. No accounts, no online multiplayer, and no long setup. Add players, choose the game length, record your phrases, and start playing.

Features:
- Record short phrases and hear them backwards
- Prepare all secret phrases before the rounds begin
- Let the guesser imitate the sound and say their answer
- Compare the original phrase and the guess
- Use speech recognition to help check answers
- Override the result when the app hears wrong
- Keep score across several rounds
- Choose short, normal, or long games
- Set how much time the guesser gets
- Play in multiple languages

Nessil uses the microphone for short audio clips during the game. Speech recognition can show what the app heard and help compare answers, but players can always correct the text or approve an answer manually.

A quick game for the table, the sofa, the party, or anywhere you want to play something together without cards, accounts, or extra gear.
