## What is Stunkelstein?

Stunkelstein is a social deduction game for in-person groups. 1+ player is secretly the Stunk, they don't know the secret word everyone else shares. Through conversation, bluffing, and careful questioning, the group tries to identify the Stunk before time runs out.

HOW IT WORKS
One player creates a game and shares a code, QR, or link. Everyone joins on their own phone. Each player privately sees their role — civilians get the secret word, the Stunk gets nothing. A timed discussion round begins, followed by a vote. Short rounds, instant results, no downtime.

NO ACCOUNTS, NO FRICTION
Jump in with just a name. No sign-ups, no emails, no passwords. Create a game in seconds and start playing immediately.

BUILT FOR THE ROOM
Stunkelstein is designed for people in the same room. The app handles roles, timers, and votes — the fun comes from reading faces, catching slips, and throwing suspicion.
