Huit jeux de soirée. Un seul téléphone qu'on se passe. Aucune préparation, aucun compte, aucune connexion. FIASCO se sort quand le silence s'installe autour de la table, et se range quand tout le monde s'est fâché. 01 · L'IMPOSTEUR Tout le monde reçoit un mot secret. Un ou deux joueurs en ont un légèrement différent — et ils ne le savent pas. Chacun donne un indice, puis le groupe vote. Attention à Mr. White : il n'a aucun mot, et s'il devine le vôtre après son élimination, il rafle la partie à lui tout seul. 02 · LE CLASSEMENT Un juge reçoit une question secrète et vous classe tous, lui compris. Au groupe de retrouver la question à partir du seul classement. « Pourquoi tu m'as mis premier ?! » 03 · SUR LE FRONT Le téléphone sur le front, l'écran vers les autres. Ils te font deviner, tu bascules l'appareil pour valider ou passer. 180 mots, six catégories, la dignité au sol. 04 · LA NOTE Le groupe découvre une note sur 10. À lui de te la faire deviner sans jamais prononcer un chiffre — seulement des exemples de choses qu'il noterait pareil. 05 · LE TRIO Trois joueurs de la table, trois verdicts, un verdict par nom. Tu tranches en secret, le groupe tente de te lire. Personne ne ressort indemne. 06 · LA ROUE Ta liste, tes gages, tes corvées : tu écris, la roue tranche. En mode éliminatoire, ce qui sort quitte la roue jusqu'à ce qu'elle soit vide. 07 · LA COURTE PAILLE Tout le monde pose un doigt sur l'écran. Quelques secondes, et l'appareil en désigne un. Pour décider qui paie, qui y va, qui range. 08 · LOUP-GAROU Le village dort, les loups mangent, et au matin tout le monde s'accuse. L'app tient le rôle du meneur : elle sait qui appeler, dans quel ordre, et qui meurt au petit matin. Voyante, sorcière, chasseur, salvateur, cupidon — tu choisis les cartes avant de distribuer. CE QU'IL Y A DEDANS • 330 mots et questions, 112 duos — et du contenu ajouté au fil des mises à jour • Un casting partagé : les prénoms se saisissent une fois • Des scores par jeu, avec un loser du soir désigné • Thème clair, sombre ou système, quatre couleurs d'accent, quatre icônes d'app CE QU'IL N'Y A PAS • Pas de compte, pas d'inscription • Pas de publicité, pas d'achat intégré • Aucune donnée collectée, aucune connexion nécessaire — l'app fonctionne entièrement hors ligne À partir de 3 joueurs, 5 pour le Loup-Garou. Idéalement 6 ou plus.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Fiasco at none against Minesweeper Classic's 8. Fiasco also leads on ads (none vs shown). Minesweeper Classic's advantage is chart position (#148 vs unranked) and device support (3 vs 1). On price there is nothing between them.
