PartyRelay turns any get-together into a game night — no extra equipment, no account, no ads, no internet required. Split into two teams, pass one phone back and forth, and race the clock.
HOW IT WORKS
Spin the wheel to pick a game. Both teams play the exact same round, one after the other — whoever guesses more words wins the round and takes the point. Simple to explain in ten seconds, chaotic and hilarious in practice.
FIVE WAYS TO PLAY
Say & Guess — describe the word out loud (without saying the word itself) while your team shouts out guesses.
Draw & Guess — sketch it on the in-app canvas, no letters or numbers allowed, teammates guess from your doodle.
Lip Reading — mouth the word with zero sound and see if your team can read your lips.
Charades — act it out with gestures alone.
Hall of Fame — both teams play at once with no timer: each team is secretly given a famous name, then you take turns asking yes/no questions until someone cracks the other team's name.
OPEN BUZZ
Land on this wheel sector and things get spicy: it picks one of the timed games above, but now the OTHER team can jump in and steal a point for anything your team misses. Nobody gets to zone out on their turn.
QUICK MODE
Not enough people to split into two teams? Turn on Quick Mode: no teams, no scores — one spin, one round, then a tally of how many you got. Turn it back off and everything returns to the full two-team match.
BUILT FOR CLOSE, FUN MATCHES
PartyRelay quietly keeps blowouts from ruining the night — a team that falls behind gets a friendly boost (more time, extra skips) so the game stays fun for everyone until the last round, without ever feeling unfair or obvious about it.
THOUGHTFUL EXTRAS
• A recap after every round shows exactly which words came up, so arguments about "wait, was that really the word?" settle themselves.
• Optional privacy guard: hold the phone up to see the word, lay it flat to hide it automatically — perfect for passing hand to hand mid-round.
• Fully bilingual: switch between English and Simplified Chinese instantly, with word lists written natively for each language (not machine-translated).
• Thousands of hand-picked words per game — every entry is a real word, idiom, saying or title, so nobody gets stuck on something that isn't actually a thing.
• Customize team names and emoji, round count, turn length, haptics, and sound — all from one settings screen.
NO CATCH
PartyRelay is completely offline. No sign-up, no ads, no in-app purchases, no data collection, no network access of any kind. Just open it and start playing.
Perfect for family game night, parties, icebreakers, road trips, and any time two teams and a timer sound more fun than a phone in everyone's own hands.
