One player gets a slightly different word. Find the imposter through conversation alone. The official Word Wolf app, endorsed by the game's creator. 10 million downloads and 190,000 reviews. HOW TO PLAY No manual, no cards, no setup. 1. Pick your group and pass the phone — works with 3 to 50 people. Pass one phone around and check your own word in secret. 2. Talk about it for five minutes — everyone assumes they share the same word. One player, the wolf, was given a slightly different one. 3. Point and vote — vote out whoever seems off. Catch the wolf and the citizens win; survive the vote and the wolf takes it. WHY THIS ONE - No rulebook needed. The rules live inside the app. One person reads them out and you are playing three minutes after opening it, even with first-timers in the group. - Topic buttons keep the talk alive. In this game staying quiet is actually the safer play. Topic buttons hand you a fresh thing to talk about, turning every awkward silence back into the fun part. - Every word pair rebuilt in 4.0. 600 brand-new pairs plus 1,800 conversation prompts. Roughly 100 hours of material, from classics like "noodles" vs "pasta" to "heartbreak" vs "a crush". Six categories: food & drink, everyday life, fun & entertainment, love & relationships, school life and kids. - Now in 17 languages, so you can play in the language your group actually speaks. GOOD FOR Drinks and parties / Waiting around / Icebreakers / Family gatherings / School and training / Nights away on a trip Nine years since launch in 2017. The word list is refreshed every year, so nothing you play ever feels dated. Free to play. One phone is all you need — nobody else has to install anything. This is the official app of Word Wolf, endorsed by its creator Kawasaki Factory (Susumu Kawasaki).

Chinchiro is one of Japan's most popular traditional dice games. Throw three dice into a bowl and the best combination wins. If you know Cee-lo, you'll feel right at home. The app faithfully recreates the clatter of dice hitting the bowl and the way they tumble, so you can enjoy Chinchiro anytime, anywhere. ■ Two modes ・Battle Mode: place your bet and take on the CPU to see who has the better luck ・Free Mode: roll as much as you like with nothing at stake, great for parties and nights out ■ Hands (strongest to weakest) 【Pinzoro】[1][1][1]. The best hand, pays 5x 【Arashi】Three of a kind other than 1s. Pays 3x 【Shigoro】The straight [4][5][6]. Pays 2x 【Points 1–6】When two dice match, the third die is your point. [6][6][2] is 2, [1][5][1] is 5. Higher is better 【Hifumi】The straight [1][2][3]. You pay double 【Shonben】A die flies out of the bowl. The worst hand; can be turned on in Settings (0.5% chance) 【Menashi】No hand after three rolls Ranking in Battle Mode: Pinzoro > Arashi > Shigoro > points (6>5>4>3>2>1) > Hifumi > Shonben House rules for Arashi, Hifumi and Shonben vary from place to place, so in this app you decide whether Shonben can happen. ■ No tricks Every roll is decided by random numbers. You can throw by swiping, long-pressing or tapping, and the odds are exactly the same either way. ■ Secret mode Do a certain something and you'll find yourself in a very dangerous mode... ※ For entertainment only. No real money is involved. ※ The game is available in English and Japanese.
